While Blanco is best known for his hit songwriting and production work, he has also gained a cult following online for his eccentric and often elaborate toenail art.

His go-to nail artist, @nailedbytav, frequently showcases the designs on Instagram, including a particularly viral set inspired by Persian rugs, complete with miniature tassels glued to the tips of his toenails.

Blanco's past nail art has included a wide range of bizarre and whimsical themes. For Valentine’s Day last year, he sported toenails decorated with miniature fried pickle slices, a nod to his favorite snack.

Other quirky designs have included a sushi platter, glittering “Golden Toes,” realistic tarantulas, and lime.
