Last Updated:
The couple, speaking on a podcast, also reflected on their early dates and Gomez's initial anxiety. Despite her nerves, the pair's romance blossomed, culminating in an engagement.
Music producer Benny Blanco revealed that his fiancée Selena Gomez was nervous during their first memorable kiss that she developed a rash on her face. The couple shared this amusing anecdote during their appearance on Table Manners podcast hosted by singer Jessie Ware and her mother Lennie. Blanco, 37, reminiscing the moment said they were playing a card game at home and one of the cards prompted them to click a selfie together. He said Gomez climbed onto his chest to snap the picture. He shared right after that he looked at her and thought he has 'to kiss the girl".
However, the Only Murders in the Building star, 32, had a surprising physical reaction. Blanco elaborating on the incident said she was so nervous; that her heart was palpitating and she began getting a rash on her face. When Lennie jokingly asked whether the Bad Liar singer was allergic to him, Blanco responded playfully saying she was.
Gomez during the conversation said she was nervous due to the depth of her feelings. The Rare Beauty chief admitted she had not liked anyone in a long time and when a person recognises feelings behind a kiss, it is different. She also confessed she was a little embarrassed.
Blanco shared another anecdote about Gomez; he said in early stages of their relationship; the singer would arrive at his home 20 to 30 minutes early for their date. He said she would wait in her car outside until the official time, stated a report in Page Six.
Blanco laughed as he recalled that Selena was unaware of his house having security cameras and that he could see her car parked outside his home.
Gomez said she wanted the time to call a friend for a pep talk or a quick makeup touch-up before their date.
Benny and Selena have been friends for years but only began dating in June 2023. Six months later, they announced their relationship on social media. In December 2024, Blanco proposed to the singer with a marquise diamond ring which was a tribute to their 2015 hit song Good For You.
Reflecting on their journey, Blanco shared a black-and-white picture of the fateful selfie last month and wrote that courting Selena was the best decision he made.

Will Justin Bieber Get Half of Hailey Bieber's Billion-Dollar Business Fortune if They Split? Here's What Reports Suggest
Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber have been in the news for their divorce rumors since soon after they tied the knot in 2018. While the couple has addressed the headlines on multiple occasions and revealed that all is well in their paradise, speculation about their split persists. Amid the divorce rumors circulating, a source close to the new parents revealed that if the duo were to part ways, the Peaches crooner would receive half of his wife's billion-dollar business fortune. The reason is reportedly that the couple never signed the prenuptial agreement. Hailey launched her line of beauty products, Rhode, in 2022 and sold it to e.l.f. last week for a whopping deal of billions. Why will Justin Bieber get half of Hailey's business after their split? In a conversation with Page Six, Hollywood's top lawyer revealed that it is unusual for celebrity couples not to have an agreement that would supervise their assets. Elaborating on his statements, the lawyer stated, 'It's highly unusual for people of their stature to not have an agreement that governs their assets.' They added, 'But sometimes people don't want to do it.' The lawyer went on to add that the Biebers were married in a New York courthouse and celebrated the marriage with their friends and family in South Carolina. However, the couple has been staying in California, and the state has a certain kind of jurisdiction. According to the state law, if the prenup is not signed, anything that the individual owns after marriage becomes community property. Hence, the attorney went on to say, 'If there is no prenup [or] postnuptial ... agreement, this sounds like community property to me.' Meanwhile, the Yummy singer recently grabbed attention from his fans after he called out the audacity of the people to dictate others' lives. He posted a cryptic note on his Instagram account, and in response, the singer was reminded of his harsh remarks about his wife following her appearance on the cover of Vogue.

Benny Blanco talks about his relationship with Selena Gomez, says 'Im just dreaming and praying every day'
Washington DC [US], June 5 (ANI): Benny Blanco revealed that he and his fiancee, Selena Gomez, are already considering having kids. "I love kids; I love being an uncle. I want to be a dad, though, God willing," said Blanco, reported Page Six. "I'm just dreaming and praying every day," he said of starting a family. In February, the couple purchased a USD 35 million Spanish-style estate in Beverly Hills, California. "I love making a house my own," shared Blanco, adding, "I'm not in there with the staple gun, but I'm in there with tchotchkes and a lot of creativity and heart. I hate it when you go into a person's house and you're like, 'Ooh, it feels like nobody lives here!' I don't want to be scared to sit down...." The ace musician admitted that he learned most of his relationship advice from his mom before he and Gomez became serious. "My mom always took the time to explain how a female mind works because she was going through so many dating traumas when I was growing up," he shared of his mother, who is divorced from his dad. "I've had some tough times, but I've always been a very happy person. I just wake up stoked every day," he said. Although Blanco shared that no one has told him about "emotional competency," he has learned what not to do by observing his friends' dating lives. "Some things I learn from friends of mine. I see them do something stupid, and I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'll never do that in a relationship,'" he said. "Then sometimes you see your friend do something rad, and you're like, 'Ooh, I'm taking that little idea'," according to Page Six. He added, "You stop learning when you stop listening." Over the years, Blanco has learned that men struggle to listen to women's wants. "I think people's biggest problem, especially men, is we don't listen all the time... A woman will tell you exactly what she needs," he said. At 37 years old, Blanco hopes he knows "how to treat a woman by now." The 'Only Murders in the Building' actress and Blanco went public with their love in December 2023, six months after they started dating. A year later, they got engaged, as per the outlet. Blanco has been open about having kids with Gomez for quite some time; the singer revealed last year that she can't carry her own children due to medical issues , reported Page Six. (ANI)

Blake Lively ‘begging' Taylor Swift to ‘mend' their friendship after Justin Baldoni subpoena: Report
Amid the rumoured tensions between Blake Lively and Taylor Swift, a new report reveals that the Gossip Girl star is 'begging' the pop singer to become friends once again. The 35-year-old singer allegedly cut ties with A Simple Favor actress after being dragged into her legal battle with Justin Baldoni. However, the 37-year-old actress has tirelessly been reaching out to the Midnights hitmaker, according to Daily Mail. 'Even though Taylor has totally cut ties with her, Blake hasn't with Taylor,' a source told the outlet. 'She's been reaching out to her with texts, voicemails and even emails, begging to mend what they once had. Blake isn't giving up on trying to get her friendship with Taylor back on track.' Despite the constant messages and voicemails, Swift 'hasn't responded to any of Blake's pleas' and has 'ignored all her groveling excuses.' 'The missives explain there must be some misunderstanding on Taylor's part and that she'd never do anything to harm their 10 years of closeness and personal secrets,' the source added. Swift and Lively are allegedly no longer on speaking terms after the former was name-dropped in Baldoni's $400 defamation lawsuit against the latter and her husband, Ryan Reynolds. The 41-year-old claimed that his co-star used the singer's influence, referring to her as her 'dragon' to assert dominance. 'The message could not have been clearer. Baldoni was not just dealing with Lively. He was also facing Lively's 'dragons,' two of the most influential and wealthy celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him,' the lawsuit said, per Page Six. As a result, Baldoni's legal team subpoenaed Swift to testify as a witness in his and Lively's March 2026 trial. While the subpoena was dismissed weeks later, it damaged the Age of Adaline star's friendship with the Lavender Haze singer. According to a previous report by the outlet, Swift felt 'used' and 'doesn't appreciate being referred to as one of Blake's dragons.'
