Selena Gomez fans say they are disgusted by a 'nasty' Valentine's Day gesture from Benny Blanco.

The celebrity couple, who started dating in 2023 and recently got engaged, have apparently hit a nerve with fans over their somewhat cheesy Valentine's Day post.

While some women would be happy with a bouquet of flowers, chocolates or a card, the key to Selena Gomez's heart is, apparently, cheese. And a lot of it.

Taking to Instagram, Benny Blanco posted a video of his grand gesture to his beau, which featured a bathtub full of nacho cheese.

Instead of a bed of rose petals, the music producer staged a somewhat romantic scene with a trail of chips leading to the tub of cheese and 'I love you' written out in the chips sprawled across the bathroom floor.

The footage showed the tub was filled to the brim with bright yellow nacho cheese sauce with plenty of chips to tuck into.

Explaining the gesture, Blanco wrote in the caption: "When your fiancé isn't much of a flowers girl."

However, not everyone has been a fan of the idea as some raced to Twitter to say it was 'nasty' and unhygienic.

One fan said: "After this I would never want queso or chips again lollll," while another wrote it was 'f****** disgusting'.

Another fan, who seemed to believe the pair would be bathing in the cheese, wrote: "Every girl's dream, yeast infection for Valentine's Day."

"Weird and a waste lol," said a third.

"I don't know about that one... Eating off of the bathroom appliances it not romantic to me," a fourth added.

"Those drains are going to need a great plumber," a fifth wrote.

"She said she wanted something cheesy for Valentine's and he took it literally," said another.

Others said it was a 'waste of food' and money and slammed the idea as 'unromantic' and 'not sanitary'.

However, not everyone was hating on the idea as some said they would appreciate a similar gesture.

"I'd finish the whole tub in one sitting," said another.

Another fan added: "That's one way to win her heart!"

"This is adorable," read another comment.

The comments come as the 'Lose You to Love Me' singer and her record producer fiancé Blanco were the butt of Nikki Glaser's jokes at the Golden Globes.

"Selena Gomez is here," the comedian began. "A double nominee tonight for Emilia Perez and Only Murders [In The Building], and she's here tonight with her new fiancé Benny Blanco.

"And Benny Blanco is here because of the genie that granted that wish. Man, lucky guy."

The pair laughed as Gomez mimed that she was in the lucky one of the two, while Blanco simply laughed and kissed the singer on the shoulder.
