Benny Blanco Slammed As ‘Tone Deaf’ For Eating $200 Blueberries On Twitter After Selena Gomez Reaches Billionaire Status: ‘The Rich Are Not Taxed Nearly Enough’

Selena Gomez just celebrated joining the billions club—that is, a major celebrity worth at least $1B—and it looks like her fiancé, Benny Blanco, is reaping the benefits. The music producer, who is worth a whopping $50M himself, just posted a video reviewing a box of luxury blueberries—priced at $200! Users online weren’t amused, though, and called him out for being “tone deaf.” Keep reading for more information.
In the video, Benny unboxes the large blueberries sent to him by the brand Elly Amai. Packaged like chocolates, the blueberries are nearly the size of ping pong balls. “These blueberries they just sent me are the biggest things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Benny begins the video.
Taking a bite out of the blueberry (yes, they’re big enough to take a bite out of and still have half the fruit remaining), Benny says, “They’re like a f***ing meal,” before eating a few more of them in quick succession.
“They’re f***ing huge,” he continues between bites. “They’re delicious. I think the boxes are like $200. That’s crazy!” Though the blueberry box isn’t currently listed on the Elly Amai website, they do have a melon for sale for $105 and a single strawberry going for $2o, so the blueberries being priced at $200 would not be out of the question for the Asian brand.
