Sometimes, when walking down the street and seeing a duo holding hands, you do a double-take. Of course, it’s what’s on the inside that matters, but there’s something about seeing a Birkenstock-wearing boho indie chick arm-in-arm with a guy in khakis and a Patagonia vest that just feels weird. Celebrities are no different. Every once in a while, a weird celebrity couple comes along that has you questioning everything you’ve ever known. Selena Gomez recently confirmed her relationship with Benny Blanco (super random), and Jewel and Kevin Costner had a full PDA moment. I mean, that wasn’t on my BINGO card. (Cool Gen Z girls would roll their eyes at me, but what else am I supposed to say???) Below are other totally random celeb couples we all need to accept, I guess.

Selena confirmed the relationship on Instagram on Dec. 7, and then went on a spree confirming it in the comments section.
