Benny Blanco has dismissed the idea of holding live shows to promote his joint album with Selena Gomez.

The record producer has revealed that he has no plans to perform live in support of his collaborative album with his fiancée, Selena, titled I Said I Love You First and released in March.

During a recent appearance on the Hot Hits with Nic & Loren podcast, Benny was asked if he and Selena would be doing any live shows to promote the album.

"That's like my worst nightmare," he replied candidly. "Doing live shows... like anytime I had to do SNL (Saturday Night Live) or like AMAs (American Music Awards) I'm always just like, 'When's it over? When's it over?'"

The 37-year-old added, "I just want to be home on my couch."

Co-host Loren Barry then suggested that Selena could perform live while Benny sat beside her on a couch, to which he replied, "Honestly, not a bad ideas guys."

Jokingly adding to the idea, co-host Nic Kelly said, "Selena and Benny on a couch tour, coming to a city near you," to which Benny responded dryly, "Can't wait."

Benny and Selena released their collaborative album on 21 March.

Shortly after its release, Selena, 32, took to Instagram to thank her fiancé for being her "personal journal" while working on the record.

"Benny, thank you for being my own personal journal throughout this process," she wrote at the time. "These songs represent our past, present and future... something I can't wait to experience with you from now until forever. Thank you for pouring your unconditional love into creating this project with me."
