He revealed that he became a certified ARMY after watching BTS’ “Blood, Sweat, and Tears” music video.
…when I saw the video for ‘Blood, Sweat, and Tears’, I immediately fell in love with BTS…last year I went to one of their concerts…and I was lucky enough to meet them… that’s where my OBSESSION started… i have at work [with] so many amazing artists and meeting so many influential people but for some reason when i was in a room with them i was so nervous…like i was a little kid again…waiting for an autograph… they made me feel young…they made me feel horny…they made me believe…we chase those highs everyday…and they have the ability to give it to so many people…

This admiration led to the epic collaboration that became “Bad Decisions”. Along with producing the catchy song, Benny Blanco also starred in the song’s music video. In the video, he lived out his ARMY dreams as a very dedicated fan of the supergroup, eagerly preparing to attend a BTS concert.
Following the release of the music video, Benny Blanco actively answered fan questions and revealed some of the behind-the-scenes details of the creation of the hilarious clip.
There were two scenes in particular that he detailed. One of the most memorable scenes was Benny’s outfit, which was a replica of the jiminThe pastel purple outfit from BTS’s “Dynamite” music video.
In the music video, Benny has the carefully replicated outfit placed in a display case. He revealed that his outfit was recreated by hand as most of the clothes Jimin originally wore had been discarded. Benny shared that his friend stayed up all night painting shoes to match the ones Jimin wore in the “Dynamite” music video.
My friend @cloheyyy handcrafted the entire outfit to match Jimin’s in the Dynamite video. [because] most of the clothes were ditched…she literally stayed up all night hand painting the shoes hours before filming

Another memorable moment from the music video involved the “bora cake” that Benny made. As Benny drove the cake to the concert hall, it was dramatically destroyed after slamming the brakes.
Benny named the moment his cake fell as his favorite part of the clip while revealing the downsides of filming that particular scene.
My favorite part was when the cake fell and got messy and I had to run so fast because I was late for the show. #Ask Benny https://t.co/Tb39OOWtzR

Turns out Benny didn’t rent the car he was driving in the clip; it was Benny’s personal car.
The cake ends up crashing into the windshield in the video, leaving a mess all over the car’s dashboard.
You may have regretted using your vehicle because it revealed that the car now had a rotting smell due to pieces of cake still stuck in the car’s air vents.
5. yes that is my car in the video and yes there is still cake smeared on the air vents near the windshield… but now it smells a bit like eggs and poo pic.twitter.com/XPzjrBJNuV
