Selena Gomez has been making headlines for her romance with music producer Benny Blanco. The “Who Says” songstress took to Instagram to post an intimate photo with her new man. Selena placed her hands on Benny’s shoulders while he wrapped his arm around her torso in a move that screamed “Insta-official.”
Decked out in a strapless white dress with colorful embroidery, Selena’s ensemble is summer chic. She accessorized with a white headband and large gold hoop earrings, her brunette hair flowing behind the fashionable headwear. Complementary makeup highlighted her natural beauty. The whole look was giving us major “summer goddess” vibes.
It’s also been a whirlwind few months for Selena. From promoting her new film Emilia Pérez at Cannes Film Festival to filming season four of Only Murders in the Building, she’s been on the go non-stop. In Emilia Pérez, she plays the unsuspecting wife of a cartel leader who undergoes a sex change operation—a role that earned her a nine-minute standing ovation at Cannes.
Back on American soil, Selena hinted at her personal life plans during the Time 100 Most Influential Companies event. She revealed that if she hadn’t met the right partner by age 35, she planned to adopt a child. “I was alone for five years, and I got really used to it,” she shared. “I kind of accepted it. Then I came up with my plan, which was I was going to adopt at 35 if I had not met anyone.”
And then Benny Blanco entered the scene. The record producer, who Selena describes as her best friend, has recently been spilling the beans about their relationship on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM show. “She’s the coolest, the nicest, the sweetest,” Benny gushed. “She’s truly just like my best friend… we laugh all f***ing day.”
Selena, always the diplomat, addressed Benny’s revelations at the Time 100 event. “He can’t lie to save his life. If he’s asked a question, he’ll answer it,” she said. “I just cherish every moment with him. I don’t know what the future holds, but I do know that he’s not going anywhere any time soon.”
Yet, some fans can’t shake the feeling that something is off. “I continue to be the only voice that says something seems off about these two. Actually, mostly about him. Using her? I don’t know,” one skeptic commented.
Also, why does Benny Blanco think it’s okay to have photos taken, for the whole world to see, of him groping his girlfriend? And why does she let him? It’s tacky, disrespectful, and definitely not parent-approved behavior. Are these two genuinely in love, or is there something more cynical going on?
Fans are divided. Some are rooting for the couple, believing in their genuine connection, while others are skeptical. “Didn’t he totally slate her before they started dating? Weird!” one commenter noted. There’s a persistent undercurrent of suspicion about Benny’s motives. Is he using Selena for fame? After all, she’s a global superstar with a massive following. And let’s not forget, relationships in the spotlight are notoriously fickle.
As Selena and Benny continue to flaunt their romance on social media, the jury is still out. Are they the real deal, or is there something fishy about their relationship? Spill the tea in the comments, smash that like button, and subscribe for the latest in celebrity news!
