Benny Blanco took a solo walk through West Hollywood wearing a Foxy Brown tee, bringing a music reference into his off-duty wardrobe.
The 38-year-old producer’s fall has included a book release and a $25,000 bid for a very different kind of styling experience.
At Selena Gomez’s 4th annual Rare Impact Fund Benefit in Los Angeles on October 14, Blanco won a session with her glam team. The package included hair styling with Renato Campora, makeup with Jenna Nicole and a customized nail look by Tom Bachik. The benefit, hosted by Gomez, raised $2.7 million.
His book, F*ck Failure, came out September 15, drawing on his experiences with setbacks and a career producing for artists including Britney Spears, Justin Bieber and Ed Sheeran. “I fail constantly––small, everyday failures and massive failures that last for years,” Blanco said ahead of its release.
He’s also a co-host of Friends Keep Secrets with Dave Burd, known as Lil Dicky, and Burd’s wife, Kristin Batalucco. The weekly video podcast is filmed in Burd and Batalucco’s Los Angeles home using more than 18 hidden cameras.
