Thank-you kisses

Hello, teachers!

Could you please tell me if these are natural? [Which is natural, with or w/o 'thank-you'?]

1. The singer gave (thank-you) kisses to the auditorium.
2. The singer blew (thank-you) kisses into the auditorium.

Thank you very much.
Enjoy the weekend.

I find the second one, without "thank-you" the most natural, but I have no objection to the inclusion of "thank-you", nor any serious objection to the first sentence with or without the "thank-you". "to the audience" is an alternative for "into the auditorium". CJ
