Benny Blanco accidentally kissed Beyonce on the lips IN FRONT OF JAY-Z while aiming for her cheek

Benny Blanco once accidentally kissed Beyonce on the mouth in front of her husband Jay-Z at their Hamptons home.

The 33-year-old songwriting whiz, whose real name is Benjamin Levin, shared the story in a recent interview with Zane Lowe for Apple Music.

He revealed that he was aiming to kiss Beyonce goodbye on the cheek but hit her lip by mistake and joked that ‘My life flashed before my eyes.’

Before telling the story he quipped that ‘there’s probably gonna be like a sniper who’s gonna like shoot me through this window right now’ for his indiscretion.

Benny dished that he was enjoying a casual evening with Beyonce, Jay-Z and some other musical friends when the Lemonade diva suggested a ‘beat battle.’

He recalled that ‘I’m playing beats and like Jay-Z’s there and we’re just like drinking, chilling, and like he like comes up and he’s like freestyling in my ear!’

‘And I’m like: “Jay-Z is sitting here getting drunk with me while Beyonce is like singing little riffs and he’s freestyling in my ear and we’re about to all go in like the pool after!”‘ Benny spilled, adding that he was thinking: ‘How is this my life?’

Around ‘the end of the night’ on ‘the third night I’m there’ everyone was ‘saying goodnight’ and the whole party was ‘drunk,’ he said.

He had the thought: ‘Do I hug Beyonce?’ because he was unsure of what exact level of friendly intimacy he had managed to reach with her. ‘What’s the protocol?’

For the first two nights he had just waved her goodbye but by the third night he felt that ‘we’re all getting to know each other’ and his typical move at that stage is a hug.

‘And I remember I go in for the hug, okay? And then I’m like: “Oh, I’m gonna like kiss her on the cheek. That’s like what you do,”‘ he argued.

However ‘we just like missed a little bit and I’m like – I’m like just like – I’m definitely at the corner of some sort of lip.’

Zane buried his face in his hands laughing and saying: ‘No!’ and Benny recalled: ‘And I’m like: “Oh my God!” I’m like: “This is the worst thing in my life.”‘

At that moment he caught sight of Jay-Z ‘and I’m like: “Oh, okay, I’m dead, like my life’s over. It was great. Nice knowing you guys.”‘

Benny joked that he thought he was ‘gonna be in a coffin tomorrow’ and said lightly that ‘My life flashed before my eyes.’ 

However the tension deflated when Jay-Z said: ‘All right, bro, see you tomorrow,’ and Benny realized that ‘no one noticed’ his snafu including Beyonce.
