Benny Blanco Says Selena Gomez Misplaced Her Vows Days Before Wedding

Not all superheroes wear capes, but Benny Blanco might want to get fitted for one after saving the day at his wedding to Selena Gomez last September. During a visit to Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday night (Feb. 26) with best bud Dave “Lil Dicky” Burd to discuss their new podcast, Friends Keep Secrets, Blanco revealed that his beloved misplaced her vows five days before the ceremony.

“For like, four days,” he said of Gomez’s missing vows. “And I found them, right before the wedding! They were handwritten.” For the record, Blanco swore he didn’t peek. “No, no, I didn’t look. I closed my eyes and handed them to her. I swear! I swear I didn’t look,” Blanco said. “But how good is it? It made me look so good. It was like the best thing I could have done. I’m about to marry her and then I find the thing? She was crying because she couldn’t find [them].”

Blanco also noted that before the wedding Gomez was going over her speech and called him to offer some pointers about Burd’s officiating duties. “She said, ‘Hey, just make sure Dave doesn’t say anything about this part or this part because it’s part of my speech,” Blanco told Kimmel. “And that was the whole opening three minutes of his speech.”

“I wanted to push back, but it was her wedding,” Burd added.

The pair described the originally awkward origin of their best friendship and how they now regularly have sleepovers and say “I love you” to each other before explaining why they got into a 15-minute argument over marinades during the first episode of the show they swear is not a podcast, but a hangout with friends. “I feel like it’s totally unresolved,” Burd complained. “He’s so wrong!” an agitated Blanco responded, continuing the bit while leaning into their hilariously aggro interpersonal dynamic.

And, yes, they tackled the internet outrage about Blanco’s dirty feet in the first episode of the not-podcast. “It’s the facility’s fault. It’s not mine,” Blanco insisted about the viral image of his grungy soles on Burd’s couch. To prove how great his feet are, Blanco then whipped off his shoes and insisted the camera zoom in on his foot.
