Selena Gomez kisses fiancé Benny Blanco's cheek at a friend's wedding; Fans say ‘in a few months it will be you'

Hindustan Times7 days ago
Actor-singer Selena Gomez shared a glimpse of her evening with fiancé Benny Blanco after the two attended a wedding over the weekend. On Sunday, the 33-year-old posted a carousel of photos from the celebration, with the first shot showing her kissing Benny on the cheek. Dressed in a ruby red halter-neck gown layered with a black coat, Selena held one of Benny's hands to his cheek as she leaned in, while the music producer, in a bright blue suit, looked away from the camera. Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco got engaged in December 2024.
The post, captioned 'About last night's wedding', drew plenty of reactions from friends. Chrissy Teigen and Joey King liked the photos, Rachael Ray commented, 'Looking fabulous as always,' and SZA admitted she'd initially panicked. 'I panicked so crazy,' she wrote, thinking Gomez was sharing pictures from her own wedding. Ray chimed in with, 'Girl you and me both!!'
The wedding was of rapper-actor Lil Dicky (David Burd) and Kristin Batalucco on August 9, with Selena's pictures capturing the newlyweds on the dance floor, her posing with the bride, and Benny snapping shots of his close friend. Benny and Lil Dicky share a long history, collaborating on music and appearing in each other's shows, including Matty and Benny Eat Out America and Dave.
Selena also took to Instagram Stories to share a closer look at the couple's outfits and the fragrances they paired with them. In one clip, she applied the perfume to Blanco's wrists as he rubbed it in, laughing behind the camera.
The couple got engaged in December 2024 after a year of dating. While no wedding date has been revealed, Selena told recently fans via TikTok last month, 'Whenever that day comes, I do know I don't want a big cake. I think I'd want a mini one for just us that we can freeze. My preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy. My Nana's biscuits and gravy — that sounds like dessert to me,' she had said.

Did Olandria just confirm her engagement to Nic? Love Island USA Season 7 star's comment fuels fan frenzy ahead of reunion

Amaya Espinal and Bryan Arenales may have walked away with the Love Island USA Season 7 trophy, but it's the first runner-ups, Nicolas (Nic) Vansteenberghe and Olandria Carthen, who have truly captured America's heart with their post-show antics. After catching flights (and feelings), the couple is back in town juggling promotional gigs — including their steamy new Nic x Olandria collab with NYX Cosmetics that has set social media on fire. But while they're securing brand deals, it looks like they're also levelling up in their personal lives. The latest talk? The couple might actually be engaged. And no, this isn't just another fan theory — a recent comment from Olandria herself has fans convinced, and Love Island viewers are absolutely losing it. Are Love Island USA Season 7 couple Nic and Olandria engaged? There have been whispers that Nic might have popped the big question during the Love Island USA Season 7 reunion last week, and now Olandria seems to have let slip where things stand between them. The former islander recently left a comment on Nic's sister's post that has fans convinced an engagement is on the table. If you've been following Nic and Olandria's journey, you already know their families are some of their biggest cheerleaders. Just recently, Nic's sister posted a TikTok with their mom, both rocking 'Nicolandria' t-shirts. In the clip, she sweetly referred to Olandria as her 'daughter-in-law, whom I love so much.' Olandria wasted no time jumping in with a heartfelt reply: 'ugh I love you so much. Best mother-in-law a girl could ask for.' While it's been mentioned before that both Nic's mom and Olandria's mom affectionately call them son-in-law and daughter-in-law, fans couldn't help but notice the shift this time. Olandria, who once said it felt too soon to be calling anyone 'in-laws', openly embraced the term, sparking fresh speculation that Nic may have put a ring on it. Olandria's mother has already locked in Nic as her son-in-law Olandria recently sat down on the Tish Cyrus Podcast for an episode titled 'Olandria's Love Island Journey: Faith, Finding Nic & Life After the Villa.' In the candid conversation, she opened up about her time in the villa, life beyond the show, and of course, her relationship with Nic. In one heartfelt moment, Olandria revealed that her mom already calls Nic her 'son-in-law' — and that he's actually the first boyfriend her mother has ever met. She admitted at the time that it felt a little too soon for that label, but now that she's the one casually calling Nic's mom her 'mother-in-law', fans are convinced the couple may have quietly taken the next step. The engagement chatter only became stronger after the episode dropped, sending the Love Island fandom into a full spiral. THEY ARE GETTING MARRIED and i've been saying this since Olandria said "it's a part of you" while Nic was holding Marcel's bad behind🤧😭 Ms. Olandria 'too soon' Carthen now calling Nic's mom 'mother in law'. I guess its actually not too soon then More about Nic and Olandria's Love Island journey Nic and Olandria didn't start off as a couple in the villa — far from it. Nic first paired up with Belle-A and later with Cierra, while Olandria kicked things off with Taylor. For a while, they seemed locked into different paths, but fans noticed a spark between them bubbling under the surface. Everything changed after Casa Amor, when both found themselves single and hanging by a thread. A twist gave them the chance to couple up, and that's when 'Nicolandria' was born. Still, their romance didn't really click until after Cierra's sudden exit, which opened the door for Nic and Olandria to finally give things a real shot. From there, the chemistry was undeniable, and what started as a last-minute pairing quickly turned into one of the most beloved storylines of the season — carrying them all the way to the finale as runners-up. When and where to watch Love Island USA Season 7 reunion? The Love Island USA Season 7 reunion is set to stream on Monday, August 25, 2025, at 9 p.m. ET, exclusively on Peacock. Filmed earlier this month in New York City, the special will be hosted by Ariana Madix alongside Andy Cohen, so you already know it's going to bring the heat.

'Delulu', 'Lewk', 'Skibidi' Among 6,000 Words Added To Cambridge Dictionary

Words popularised by Gen Z and Gen Alpha, including "skibidi", "delulu", and "tradwife" are among 6,000 new entries to the online edition of the Cambridge Dictionary over the last year, its publisher said Monday. Cambridge University Press said tradwife, a portmanteau of traditional wife, reflected "a growing, controversial Instagram and TikTok trend that embraces traditional gender roles". The dictionary also took on the challenge of defining skibidi, a word popularised in online memes, as a term which had "different meanings such as cool or bad, or can be used with no real meaning". The gibberish word was spread by a YouTube channel called "Skibidi Toilet" and is associated with the mindless, "brain rot" content found on social media and consumed by Gen Alpha's overwhelmingly digital lifestyle. The dictionary defined delulu, derived from the word delusional, as "believing things that are not real or true, usually because you choose to". As an example, it cited a 2025 speech in parliament where Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese used the phrase "delulu with no solulu". "It's not every day you get to see words like skibidi and delulu make their way into the Cambridge Dictionary," said Colin McIntosh, Lexical Programme manager at the Cambridge Dictionary. "We only add words where we think they'll have staying power. Internet culture is changing the English language and the effect is fascinating to observe and capture in the Dictionary." Other new phrases include "lewk", used to describe a unique fashion look and popularised by RuPaul's Drag Race, and "inspo", short for inspiration. Work from home culture has given rise to "mouse jiggler", referring to a way to pretend to work when you are not. There is also "forever chemical", man-made chemicals that stay in the environment for years and have gained traction as concerns grow about the irreversible impact of climate change on the health of humans and the plant.
