Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco work well together, and Drew Barrymore‘s impromptu makeup challenge was proof. The couple arrived at “The Drew Barrymore Show” to promote their joint album, “I Said I Love You First.” Taking up on Barrymore’s makeup challenge, the trio’s chaotic exchange turned the segment into a comedy sketch. While the Rare Beauty founder seamlessly showcased her artistry, Blanco’s lack of technique and fun responses added a layer of amusing unpredictability to the episode.
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco attempt to put makeup on Drew Barrymore
While hosting Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco on her show, Drew Barrymore challenged the couple to do spontaneous makeup on her. Accepting the challenge, the duo grabbed Rare Beauty products to prove that their artistic potential extended beyond music. While Gomez flawlessly approached each step with professional precision, Blanco’s hilarious attempt established his inexperience with the glam process. However, despite his clumsy sweeps, he entertained the audience with his delightful answers.
Barrymore sat between the couple, offering them each side of her cheeks to apply their creative finesse. During the process, the duo addressed topics ranging from Blanco’s love for stuffed toys to the story behind their latest album. When Barrymore asked the award-winning musician how they named the album “I Said I Love You First,” Gomez responded it was Blanco’s idea.
The singer also revealed that she was the first to confess her love for Blanco, leading to cheers of adoration from the audience. However, he jokingly accused his fiancée of having “ruined” his plan of saying “I love you” first. Explaining that she was medicated the first time she said it, he insisted that the actor “accidentally” said it a few other times. However, when Barrymore asked what his grand plan was, Blanco replied, “I didn’t have a plan,” adding, “I was just gonna say ‘I love you.’”
Although neither Benny Blanco’s love confession nor his makeup routine went as planned, his chemistry with Selena Gomez was undeniable. His chaotic energy complemented his fiancée’s calm demeanor, proving they made a powerful team, both professionally and personally.
