Selena Gomez Writes Tribute to Benny Blanco: ‘I Adore This Man'
On Saturday, Selena Gomez shared new pics with fiancé Benny Blanco, including a brief but heartfelt tribute to their connection. In the first picture, the couple is seated at a table and smiling into the camera. Gomez has her arm around Blanco's neck and he has grabbed her hand and is giving it a kiss. She is laughing with her eyes closed.
She then shared a shot of Blanco at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in Santa Monica, where he won an award for Favorite Viral Song for 'Bluest Flame.' Over the picture, Gomez wrote, 'I adore this man,' adding a heart emoji.
The Only Murders in the Building star then created some confusion when she shared a shot of herself with curly bangs, writing how much she wished she could be at the awards as well 'with all the kiddos.'
But she then clarified it was only a 'wiggly wig,' sharing a triptych of black-and-white pictures showing her middle part and no bangs.
Gomez and Blanco have been engaged since December 2024 and have reportedly planned their wedding already, though they have been sparing with public details. On an April 30 episode of Table Manners With Jessie and Lennie Ware podcast, they were asked about doing a first dance at the reception.
'I don't think we're looking at having one of those,' Gomez began. ''Cause they're a little—'
'She's shy,' Blanco interrupted.
'I feel embarrassed,' she clarified. 'I will have a special dance with my papa, who he is my grandfather and he's my mom's father. And he never got a chance to walk my mom down the aisle because good for my mom. She decided to go to Vegas and be like, 'Whoo,' and she's still been with [her husband, Brian Teefey] ever since they were like 26. So it's very cute that they did that, but I wanted to give him an opportunity to have that.'

'Only Murders In The Building' S5 Trailer Just Dropped And It Hints At A Massive Plot Twist
Only Murders In The Building season five is set to premiere on September 9, yet luckily for fans of the show, a trailer for the upcoming fifth season was released on August 12. The two-and-a-half-minute sneak peak features the show's protagonists Charles (Steve Martin), Oliver (Martin Short) and Mabel (Selena Gomez) as they pull up their sleeves to solve the mystery of the latest murder: the death of the building's doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca). The beloved doorman was killed off at the end of season four, and his death is thought to be connected to a prolific New York City mobster, who he was spotted with on the night of his death. As per Hulu's logline, the premise is as follows: 'After Lester dies under suspicious circumstances, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel refuse to believe it was an accident. Their investigation plunges them into the shadowy corners of New York and beyond — where the trio uncovers a dangerous web of secrets connecting powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters, and the mysterious residents of the Arconia. The trio discovers a deeper divide between their storied city they thought they knew and the new New York evolving around them — one where the old mob fights to hold on as newer, even more dangerous players emerge.' Returning alongside the trio is Michael Cyril Creighton (Howard), Meryl Streep (Loretta), Richard Kind (Vince), Nathan Lane (Teddy), Téa Leoni (Sofia), and Da'Vine Joy Randolph (Detective Donna). Besides the usual familiar faces, new season is set to boast a number of newcomers including Logan Lerman, Bobby Cannavale, Beanie Feldstein, Jermaine Fowler, Keegan-Michael Key, Christoph Waltz, Dianne Wiest, Renée Zellweger, as seen in the trailer.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's Rare Podcast Kiss Feels Straight Out of a Rom-Com
THE RUNDOWN Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce revealed quite a bit about their relationship during Swift's two-hour appearance on New Heights yesterday. But one of their most heartwarming moments didn't involve words at all. At the end of the podcast, the pair kissed, marking a rare PDA moment. Co-host and third wheel Jason Kelce quipped, 'Oh my gosh, all right,' watching them. The kiss came after the couple discussed how Travis's previous comments about Swift on New Heights led to their real-life romance. Back in 2023, Travis spoke about his failed attempt to give Swift a friendship bracelet with his phone number on it during her Kansas City Eras Tour show. 'This kind of felt more like I was in an '80s John Hughes movie and he was just like standing outside of my window with a boombox, just being like, 'I want to date you,'' Swift began. 'I was like, if this guy isn't crazy, which is a big if, this is sort of what I've been writing songs about wanting to happen to me since I was a teenager,' she added. Travis recalled being at the concert, saying, 'And I was sitting there at the Eras Tour, listening to every single one of the songs. Like she, I know what she wants me to do. I feel that that's what she wants me to do.' Swift said that with his grad gesture, Travis proved he's 'the good kind of crazy. I knew that he wasn't crazy the first couple of times that we talked. I was just like, he's truly getting to know me in a way that's very natural, very pure, very normal. Also, just the way that he could make me laugh so immediately about normal things... Travis is like, he's just a vibe-booster in everyone's life that he's in. He's like a human exclamation point. He's like when you take a picture on your phone and you push the enhanced color button, that's like what you do to everyone's life. I've used so many more exclamation points now, but I think it was just so non-judgmental about people. And you were not judgmental about the fact that I knew nothing about the [football] world you were in.' Travis later spoke about watching Swift onstage. 'I give the Eras Tour credit because if I would have never gone to that show and been mesmerized and just been captivated and then left with such a desire to want to meet you, I would have never went on here and told everybody how butthurt I was,' he told his girlfriend. 'I had never just been so engulfed in the curiosity of who you were.' His brother, Jason, praised Swift for teaching Travis the word 'engulfed.' Travis responded, 'She makes me so much better.' Of meeting her, he told Swift, 'You see you on the stage and you see how crazy you can get an entire stadium going, and then I get you in a room and it's like I've known you forever. It was just the easiest conversation I ever had, and it was just so much fun that it just—it knocked my socks off.' 'Thank you. I felt the same exact way as you,' Swift admitted. Travis stressed, 'I had never I had never experienced something so mesmerizing on stage and then so real and so beautiful in person.' 'Hey, that's wonderful,' Swift said. Jason then asked, 'Should I leave?' His brother replied, 'Yeah, I think so. Honestly, at this point, I think everyone should leave.'

Renée Zellweger and Logan Lerman Play Billionaire Murder Suspects in First ‘Only Murders in the Building' Season 5 Trailer
Season 5 of Only Murders in the Building is nearly upon us, and now there's a new poster, release date, and trailer — starring Logan Lerman and Renée Zellweger as some of the world's richest individuals — to prove it. On Tuesday, Hulu announced that the Selena Gomez, Steve Martin and Martin Short-led comedy series will return for another Big Apple adventure on Tuesday, September 9, debuting the first three episodes and then moving to weekly release after, rolling out through late October. 'After their beloved doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), dies under suspicious circumstances, Charles, Oliver, and Mabel refuse to believe it was an accident. Their investigation plunges them into the shadowy corners of New York and beyond — where the trio uncovers a dangerous web of secrets connecting powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters, and the mysterious residents of the Arconia,' a description for Season 5 reads, teasing the arrival of Zellweger, Lerman, and Christoph Waltz's characters. It continues, 'The trio discovers a deeper divide between their storied city they thought they knew and the new New York evolving around them — one where the old mob fights to hold on as newer, even more dangerous players emerge.' Based on the newly-dropped trailer, it appears that Lerman, Zellweger, and Waltz will be playing three meddling billionaires who the trio stumble upon while investigating Lester's death, which appears to be tied in some way to old-school mobsters of NYC… or Staten Island, according to the video. It's unclear how this new cast of characters each made their money but the murder board in the trailer tells us that Lerman is playing Jay Pflug, Zellweger is playing Camila White, and Waltz is portraying Bash Steed. After the trip to La La Land (aka Los Angeles) in Season 4 where Eva Longoria, Zach Galifianakis, and Eugene Levy all guest-starred as themselves, Season 5 is bringing in Bobby Cannavale, Keegan-Michael Key, Beanie Feldstein, Dianne Wiest, and Jermaine Fowler in secret roles. Also appearing in Season 5 is Téa Leoni, who made a surprise appearance in the final moments of the Season 4 finale, playing Sofia Caccimelio, the wife of Nicky Caccimelio — the missing 'Dry Cleaning King of Brooklyn' introduced via a news clip in the penultimate episode. No word on who is playing Nicky — we predict it could be Cannavale, who the trailer shows interacting with Lester prior to his death — but it appears Nicky's disappearance will play a role in the fifth season, although that will just have to be revealed when the new episodes air. Along with the release date's announcement and the trailer, the streaming service dropped the first poster for Season 5, which sees Mabel, Oliver, and Charles sitting and standing on a skyline built out of cards, with the tagline, 'The building always wins,' teasing a foray into the underbelly of New York City gangsters, something co-creator John Hoffman alluded to in a DECIDER interview last year. 'Our beloved doorman has a hold of a large amount of tenants in our buildings' secrets and many other things about his life were interesting for me to sort of explore. The very nature of a doorman in a pre-war apartment building, a New York City in 2025. [It] felt very, very interesting to look at in terms of what our show has always been about, which is classic meets newer,' Hoffman shared. We really are dipping our toe into a New York City in Season 5 that feels particularly ripped from the headlines in certain ways that we've not done before.' The first four seasons of Only Murders In The Building are now streaming on Hulu and Disney+. Season 5 premieres on Tuesday, September 9.
