Benny Blanco’S Wild Pizza-Only Diet: Selena Gomez’S Hubby Drops 4.7 Pounds In 5 Days

Benny Blanco Kicks Off His Pizza-Only Challenge

Benny Blanco had an unusual goal when he began his latest food experiment. Selena Gomez‘s husband wanted to test whether he could lose weight while eating only pizza. The music producer documented the five-day challenge in an Instagram video.

Blanco began the experiment by stepping on a scale. He weighed 152.2 pounds at the start of the challenge. He then ate one large thin-crust Domino’s pizza each day. His goal was to show that weight loss could happen while eating “literally anything.”

Day One Vibes in SoCal Style

The producer documented his meals throughout the five days. He even continued the challenge during a date night with Gomez. Blanco brought his pizza to the Sunset Tower Hotel in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Gomez enjoyed a regular dinner at the celebrity hotspot.

The experiment became harder as the days continued. By day three, Blanco appeared tired of eating the same food. “I hate my life,” he said while documenting the challenge.

Sticking It Out Through the Cheesy Grind

Despite his frustration, Blanco continued eating pizza through day five. He later said he felt “f–king good” despite the repetitive diet.

“I don’t even remember myself as a human being,” Blanco said on the fifth day. “Like, what was life before pizza?”

He eventually stepped back onto the scale after completing the experiment. The scale showed that he weighed 147.5 pounds. That meant Blanco had lost 4.7 pounds during the five-day pizza diet. He then celebrated the result while reflecting on his unusual experiment.

"I just lost 4.7 pounds eating pizza," he said. "Nothing matters, do whatever you want."

Connecting to His New Book and LA Life

Blanco’s experiment came as no surprise to fans familiar with his love of food. He previously released his cookbook, “Open Wide: A Cookbook for Friends,” in 2024. He also discussed Gomez’s eating habits this year. Blanco described his wife‘s food preferences during a conversation with Gwyneth Paltrow. He said Gomez enjoyed burgers and fries and disliked many fruits and vegetables.

He also joked about her preference for foods considered less healthy. Blanco’s pizza experiment was also connected to his upcoming book. “F–k Failure” was scheduled for release on September 15. The book focused on learning from mistakes and turning failures into opportunities. Blanco said his experiences had helped shape his approach to success. Fans in LA are buzzing about whether this Malibu-style diet dare will catch on.
