June 2, 2025

Imagine pulling up to your high school prom thinking it’s gonna be a regular-degular night of punch and Pitbull — and then Benny Blanco shows up as your DJ??? That’s the exact fever dream Fairfax High School students are now calling real life.

Benny casually posted the whole thing to his TikTok with the caption:
“When you surprise a random high school and DJ their prom.”
And honestly? Legend behavior.

🚗 Pulling Up, No Security, Just Vibes

The TikTok opens with Benny hopping out of his car like he’s late for his own wedding — frantic energy, low-key iconic. “Can’t believe this happened,” he captioned the clip, and same, Benny. SAME.

The video instantly blew up, with the comment section becoming a love fest full of shocked fans, grateful students, and even Sherri Hill — yes, the prom dress queen herself — dropping fire emojis like it’s a red carpet.

“Prom icon 🔥🔥🔥” — Sherri Hill
“Core memory for those kids!” — Carrie
“This is gonna live rent free in their brains forever” — literally everyone

💿 The Setlist? Personal. The Vibe? Immaculate.

Blanco didn’t just hit play and dip. He curated the moment — opening with a Selena Gomez track, which sent fans spiraling into full ship mode.

“The fact he played Selena’s song first shows how much he loves her 💜” — @mjfsandiego🧊
“Benny you gave these kids the best night of their lives” — Ana Carreiro

One student even wrote:

“Thank you for that wonderful night Benny!!! We’re soooo happy you were there and we’ll never forget it 😭❤️” — @pogi808lv

Another fan is already trying to book him:

“Next Friday please! My son’s senior prom 💕” — Shannon Jones 🇨🇦

🫶 Not Just a DJ Set — a Whole Moment™

What Benny did wasn’t just a celeb stunt. It was a main character moment for every single student in that gym. From the surprise entrance to the songs, it felt personal, sweet, and genuinely fun.

This wasn’t just “cool guy plays music.” It was core memory unlocked. The kind of story you tell for the rest of your life. “Yeah, our prom DJ was Benny Blanco.” Casual flex forever.

TL;DR
Benny Blanco popped out as a surprise prom DJ and gave Fairfax High School students the night of their lives. He played Selena. He vibed with the crowd. The internet? Fully obsessed.

So uh… can he DJ our lives next?
