Selena Gomez shared a funny experience on Jimmy Kimmel Live! when she received an unexpected engagement gift from the host.
Recently appearing at the Golden Globes with her fiancé Benny Blanco, the 32-year-old star was left red-faced when Kimmel revealed a quirky toy: a “Daddy Saddle.”
The “Daddy Saddle” is a playful toy that allows kids to ride on a parent’s back like a cowboy, and Kimmel made a lighthearted comment about it.
“It’s not the usual gift, and it’s not really practical, but I think you and Benny will have fun with it,” he joked.
Gomez laughed and blushed, covering her face as Kimmel added, “You can have some wholesome fun with Benny.”
He quickly added there was no other implication intended.
Was it really a new gift?
As the segment wrapped up, Kimmel hinted that the gift might have been second-hand, playfully removing remnants of old Christmas wrapping paper.
The duo, who started dating in June 2023, announced their engagement last December, leaving fans eager for news about their upcoming wedding.
At the Golden Globes, Gomez and Blanco attracted attention, especially when her stunning marquise engagement ring made headlines. A humorous interaction with her Only Murders in the Building co-star Martin Short amused viewers as Short pretended to snatch the ring from her finger during the event.
Meanwhile, Blanco faced some backlash for chewing gum loudly during the show.
Social Media Reactions
Fans voiced their displeasure online, with one commenting, “#breakingnews Benny Blanco chewing gum with an open mouth at the Golden Globes.”
Another user tweeted, “@selenagomez ask Benny Blanco to close his mouth while chewing gum, it’s gross!”
After the awards, Gomez and Blanco enjoyed an afterparty at Spago in Beverly Hills, continuing to be one of Hollywood’s most talked-about couples.
Although their wedding date is not yet known, Selena and Benny consistently entertain fans with their charming and sometimes quirky moments.
