Drew Barrymore isn’t holding back after music producer Benny Blanco hilariously roasted her dog’s “fish and poo poo” breath—and the internet is here for their chaotic feud!
The drama started when Blanco, 36, appeared on The Drew Barrymore Show this week and playfully called out the star’s beloved pup, a fluffy mixed breed named Lucy. “I love your dog, but her breath smells like a fish market… mixed with something way worse,” he joked, sending the audience into laughter. Barrymore, 49, initially laughed it off but later clapped back in a confessional-style clip posted to Instagram.
“Benny, I adore you, but Lucy’s breath is not that bad!” the Never Been Kissed star said, pretending to sniff her dog’s mouth before dramatically gagging. “Okay, maybe it’s like… a fish died? But she’s family, so we ignore it!”
Fans immediately flooded the comments, with one writing, “Drew vs. Benny over dog breath is the crossover I didn’t know I needed,” while another added, “Lucy deserves an apology… or a dental treat.”
Blanco, known for his cheeky humor, doubled down on X (formerly Twitter), posting, “Drew, I stand by my statement. Send Lucy to me for a breath mint intervention.” Barrymore responded with a meme of her dog wearing sunglasses and the caption, “Lucy’s ready for her villain era.”
The lighthearted spat has since gone viral, with pet owners everywhere sharing their own “stinky dog” stories. Even Martha Stewart chimed in, commenting, “My French Bulldogs could clear a room. Solidarity, Drew!”
This isn’t the first time Blanco’s humor has sparked a viral moment—he recently trolled Justin Bieber over his “ugly” Christmas sweater—but Barrymore’s witty comebacks prove she’s queen of turning roasts into relatable content.
