Selena Gomez was left stunned by an unconventional present from Jimmy Kimmel

Selena Gomez recently made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, where what was supposed to be a celebration of her engagement to songwriter Benny Blanco turned into an unexpectedly hilarious moment. The talk show host, known for his humor, congratulated Gomez with a gift that had everyone laughing, including the engaged star.

On Monday night’s episode, Kimmel, 57, handed the 32-year-old Gomez a peculiar present to mark her engagement. Describing it as “not traditional and not necessarily practical,” he revealed a “Daddy Saddle”—a child-sized saddle designed for kids to ride on their father’s back like a horse. As Kimmel explained its purpose, he couldn’t resist adding some playful commentary, joking about Gomez imagining Benny as the “dad,” complete with curly hair.

Selena, looking stylish as ever, was visibly amused and tried to hide her laughter, covering her face in embarrassment at the gift’s double meaning. The humor didn’t stop there—Kimmel also pointed out that the saddle may have been a re-gift, as there was still a piece of Christmas wrapping stuck to the box.

Gomez’s appearance on the show followed her exciting night at the Golden Globes on January 5, where she received a nomination for her roles in Emilia Pérez and Only Murders in the Building. Just last month, she announced her engagement to Benny Blanco on Instagram, sharing a photo of her gorgeous ring with the caption, “Forever begins now.”

While the Daddy Saddle was certainly unconventional, it’s a moment that will live on in their engagement journey, adding humor to the couple’s story. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see how Gomez and Blanco might incorporate this hilarious gift into their future adventures.
