American singer Selena Gomez is standing by her husband, Benny Blanco, following the online backlash sparked by his appearance and actions during the launch of his new podcast.
“I fall more and more in love with you every day,” the “I Said I Love You First” singer wrote on her Instagram Stories as she declared her love for Blanco and posted a video of them locking lips together.
Her post comes after Blanco announced the launch of his “Friends Keep Secrets” podcast, with friend Lil Dicky (real name David Burd) and Kristin Batalucco (Dicky’s wife) attending.
However, instead of the new podcast making headlines, his dirty feet caught the attention of online users.
Blanco was in the middle of having a conversation with his friends when he decided to put his feet up on the couch.
The music producer sat comfortably on the couch, exposing his feet, which were covered in black dirt and dust, to the camera.
To make matters worse, the music producer saw it fit to also fart on camera in front of his friends!

He actually asked if the mic would pick up the sound of him passing gas as he proceeded to do it. Eww!
This sparked online chatter about hygiene as social media users expressed their disgust over his actions, saying he should at least have some decorum and behave accordingly in public.
“Imagine telling 2010 me that Selena Gomez would be dating a guy who debuts his show by farting on camera,” @Tobijiggy commented.
“There’s a difference between funny and gross,” wrote @moonzcloudy.
“Why is he acting like being dirty is cool?” @MsBeesKitchen asked.
Some users were not fazed by his actions and instead found everything to be hilarious or normal.
“He was brought up at a farm, obviously walking around the house barefoot on a dirty floor is normal lol,” @GiancarloM74 wrote.
“Benny Blanco’s podcast sounds wild and unfiltered… definitely not for the faint of heart!” @Thegoat12897 added.
