Who Is Selena Gomez’s New Boyfriend? See Her First Relationship In Years
Did Selena Gomez just soft-launch her new boyfriend? Here's what we know about her rumored romance, Benny Blanco.
On December 7, the "Who Says" singer hinted that she's got a man on social media. When an Instagram celeb news account @popfactions posted, “Selena Gomez Is Rumored To Be Dating Producer Benny Blanco,” Gomez responded by liking the post. If it's only a rumor, wouldn't she ignore it?
Then, the account added: “Selena Gomez Seemingly Confirms That She Is In A Relationship.” Gomez wrote in the comment section, "Facts."
She soft-launched her rumored BF, Benny Blanco, on her Instagram Story. Gomez didn't stop there, though. A fan account shared a clip of her cooking show, Selena + Chef, in which she mentioned having a crush on someone. She responded by commenting with a winky face emoji.
Who Is Benny Blanco?
According to Bazaar, Blanco is a renowned record producer who has worked with some of the biggest stars, including Rihanna, Britney Spears, SZA, Katy Perry, Ed Sheeran, and Keith Urban. Dr. Luke recruited and mentored him, and signed him to his company Kasz Money Productions.
He's very talented! His name is listed in the credits for Rihanna's "Diamonds" and SZA's "Nobody Gets Me." We're not sure how long Gomez has known Blanco, but he was credited as producer for her 2019 song, "I Can't Get Enough." He has also released his own music, debuting his album, Friends Keep Secrets. Blanco has collabed with many artists: Halsey, Calvin Harris, Gracie Abrams, and even Gomez's ex, Justin Bieber.
I guess he and Gomez have a lot in common! Blanco revealed that he's dropping a cookbook soon. “When I was 13, my friend got a George Foreman grill, and it changed my life forever. We would invite friends over, get high, and make the most elaborate sandwiches our prepubescent minds could fathom,” he wrote. “I know what you are going to say… cooking is scary. You don’t know where to begin. It can be overwhelming. And cooking for a group of people, f*ck that.. but i'm telling u, once you get into it, it’ll be ur new addiction, it’s like meditating. Slicing an onion is like taking a Xanax to me.” [sic}
