Selena Gomez embarrassed as Benny Blanco tells Jason Segel her 'weird habit'

Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco haven’t been together all that long, but the music producer is already embarrassing his girlfriend, except he did it in front of Hollywood icon, Jason Segel. He may be in the doghouse for a while after this one…

The encounter happened at the 2024 Emmy Awards, where Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco made their first ‘official’ public appearance as a celebrity couple. She may think twice about bringing him to Red Carpets again in the future after this one…

Benny Blanco embarrasses Selena Gomez in front of Jason Segel

Even A-List celebrities have embarrassing moments from time to time, which is exactly what happened to Gomez at the Emmys.

She recalled seeing Segel at the show in an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and explained how he looked at her and started waving, or so she thought.

In fact, he was actually waving to someone behind her, but the How I Met Your Mother star felt inclined to then come over. Of course, the Single Soon star didn’t have any words prepared to say to the star, but Blanco stepped in.

“She falls asleep to you every night,” he told the 44-year-old as Gomez hung her head in shame with the “weird comment,” as the crowd erupted in laughter.

However, she revealed she actually does, as she has a “weird habit” of falling asleep to comfort shows, and at the moment, it’s How I Met Your Mother.

Maybe use a better choice of words next time Benny…

The star feels the ‘safest’ with her new boyfriend

As she continues to promote her new single, Love On, the 31-year-old also continues to gush about her 35-year-old boyfriend.

Speaking to Zane Lowe for Apple Music 1 the music star said: “Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you. And I think it’s really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in.”

“I’d have to say overall, it’s the safest that I feel and it’s been really lovely,” she concluded.

Gomez famously dated Justin Bieber on and off from 2011-2018. Other high-profile relationships include The Weeknd, but it looks like Benny is the best she’s had yet!
