Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's wedding set for September in Montecito

Express Tribune15-07-2025
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are officially tying the knot in a star-studded wedding this September in Montecito, California—and Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will be among the VIP guests.
The couple, who announced their engagement in December 2024 after over a year of dating, have finalized plans for what is described as a relaxed but elegant two-day celebration in Santa Barbara County. According to a source who spoke with the Daily Mail, the wedding weekend will feature close friends and family only, keeping the event intimate despite the celebrity names involved.
Taylor Swift, Gomez's best friend of over 15 years, and her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, are both expected to attend. Invitations have already gone out, and guests were reportedly instructed to bring overnight bags, suggesting the festivities will extend throughout the weekend.
The guest list is rumored to include several A-list names, including Steve Martin and Martin Short—Selena's co-stars on Only Murders in the Building—as well as musical artists who have collaborated with Blanco over the years.
While the Kansas City Chiefs have a full NFL schedule lined up in September, fans are wondering if Kelce will be able to attend alongside Swift. The Chiefs face games nearly every weekend that month, which may create a scheduling conflict.
Still, the upcoming wedding is expected to be a major moment for fans of the couple and their inner circle, celebrating love, friendship, and one of the most high-profile celebrity unions of the year.

Gracie Abrams calls Taylor a 'forever genius' and brings up Olivia in emotional tour speech

Gracie Abrams kicked off the final North American leg of her The Secret of Us tour with a deeply personal moment that left fans buzzing. During her show at TD Garden in Boston, the 25-year-old singer paused her set to read a page from her journal, a tribute to the journey she's had and the women who inspired her. "Between touring and my last few EPs and albums, the amazing festivals and opening for the brilliant Olivia and for our forever genius Taylor, it has been a very wild and lucky four years on the road," Abrams read aloud, her voice cracking slightly as fans erupted into cheers. "We are in the home stretch now and I just want to pause for a moment to let you know that we could not be happier or more grateful to be here with all of you tonight." Abrams' connection to both Olivia Rodrigo and Taylor Swift runs deep. She opened for Rodrigo on her SOUR tour back in 2022 and later joined Swift for several shows on the Eras Tour, performing to massive stadium crowds. Those opportunities, paired with her own relentless touring schedule, have shaped her into one of the most emotionally resonant voices in pop today. Her current tour supports her sophomore album, The Secret of Us, which features the Grammy-nominated collaboration us with Taylor Swift. Before this leg, she toured Europe, making up for postponed shows and performing at major festivals across June and July. Now, as she prepares to wrap up her time on the road, Abrams' tribute to Swift and Rodrigo served as a touching reminder of how far she's come and how those who came before her continue to influence the music she makes.

Alexander Skarsgård reacts to theory that Taylor Swift's song is based on him

Alexander Skarsgård has finally responded to speculation that Taylor Swift's 2014 song Wildest Dreams is based on their brief time together. While appearing on the Armchair Expert podcast, host Dax Shepard brought up a running joke with his daughter about the song and mentioned that many Swifties believe Wildest Dreams is about Skarsgård. Shepard asked, 'Do you have the same fear to either acknowledge or deny that that could be true because the power of the Swifties is so strong, you just don't even want to talk about it?' Skarsgård replied simply, 'Yeah.' He then added, 'It's about Brad Pitt,' followed by, 'I wrote the lyrics to that song myself and sent it to Taylor.' Fans have theorised for years that Wildest Dreams draws inspiration from Swift's time filming The Giver in South Africa in 2013, where she and Skarsgård were seen together. In the video for Wildest Dreams, released in 2015, Swift portrays a brunette actress entangled in a romantic film set in Africa, paralleling real-life details from her time with Skarsgård. While Taylor Swift has never confirmed the song's subject, she is known for embedding hints and coded messages in her lyrics. Over the years, her fans have grown adept at decoding lyrical Easter eggs.
