Benny Blanco ditches footwear to flaunt golden toenails at ‘The Jennifer Hudson Show’



Benny Blanco shows off nail paint at ‘The Jennifer Hudson Show’

Benny Blanco is stepping into the spotlight — quite literally — and leaving his shoes behind. 

The 37-year-old music producer made a memorable appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show on Tuesday, April 8, not just for his charm, but also for his fashion-forward feet.

In a moment that had both the audience and social media buzzing, Blanco strutted onto set barefoot, flashing a bold gold pedicure that perfectly matched his stack of gleaming gold necklaces. 

The unconventional style choice was hard to miss, especially as he walked through the show’s spirit tunnel handing out roses to staff members. 

“This is so nice. I love everyone,” he said at the end of his floral parade, instantly winning hearts — and maybe a few pedicure appointments.

Dressed in a crisp white t-shirt, short-sleeve white button-down, and tan cargo pants with artsy paint splatters, Blanco gave off an effortlessly creative vibe. 

And while fans wondered what happened to his footwear, Blanco played along, joking in the comments of the show’s TikTok, “wait where r my shoes ?”

Eventually, he did put on a pair — sort of. 

Once on set with Jennifer Hudson, he slipped into some lime green slides, which, of course, still showcased his golden toes for all to admire.

This isn’t Blanco’s first time making headlines for his pedicure game. 

Back in September 2024, he turned heads with a Persian rug-inspired design, courtesy of California nail artist Nails by Tay. 

Clearly, whether he’s producing hits or painting his toes, Benny Blanco doesn’t shy away from making a statement — and fans are here for every fabulous foot-forward moment.
