Benny Blanco has once again turned heads with his unconventional pedicure choices. 

The music producer, who is currently dating Selena Gomez, recently showcased a new hand-painted pedicure featuring a detailed Persian rug design. 

Blanco shared the look on his Instagram Story on Tuesday, reposting photos originally shared by nail artist @nailedbytav, who captioned the post, “Persian rugs Handpainted @itsbennyblanco.”

The intricate design includes not only rug patterns but also fringe details on the tips of his toenails for added texture. While some fans found the pedicure unique and creative, reactions were mixed. 

One fan called the nails "Toe-tally awesome!" while another wrote, "Stopppp [sic] these are insane."

However, other users found the decision shocking and confusing. One user expressed, "As a persian wtf is that." 

The post caught even more attention after Pop Crave shared the images on X (formerly known as Twitter), where more users reacted to Blanco’s bold pedicure. 

One comment read, "This should've been marked as sensitive content," while another said, "oh we did not need to see that."

This isn’t Blanco’s first venture into eccentric nail art. Earlier this year, he sported a pickle-themed pedicure inspired by Gomez’s favorite snack brand, Best Maid Pickles.
