Benny Blanco Says Selena Gomez Has a “Diet of a Five-Year-Old” at Goop Podcast Taping

The moment underscores a sharp contrast with Goop’s wellness image.

Overview

  • Blanco, speaking at a live Goop Podcast taping on Tuesday in West Hollywood, described Gomez’s eating as kid-like, prompting Gwyneth Paltrow to say, “This is NOT Goop approved.”
  • Detailing a recent morning at home, he said Gomez was eating Jack in the Box at 6:45 a.m. and that her go-to comfort foods are burgers and fries.
  • He added that she does not like fruits or vegetables and that when she orders from Goop Kitchen she eats the toppings and leaves the greens for him.
  • Entertainment outlets amplified the remarks from the private taping using secondary sourcing, with many citing the Daily Mail, and no response from Gomez has been reported.
  • The anecdote lands against Gomez’s public cooking journey on Selena + Chef and her marriage to Blanco, which helps explain why a fast-food habit resonated at a wellness-branded event.
