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

Justin Timberlake faces backlash on tour for poor performance amid claims he's 'in a rut'
Justin Timberlake is reportedly 'in a rut' as fans criticise his ongoing Forget Tomorrow World Tour for 'lazy' performances and lack of energy. According to insiders, the pop star 'knows he's lost his mojo' and is struggling with declining morale during the tour. The backlash intensified after a viral video from England's Lytham Festival showed Timberlake lashing out at his crew over sound issues. Concertgoers in Romania and Ireland further accused him of lip-syncing, minimal vocal effort, and being disconnected from audiences, prompting many to walk out mid-show. A source told the Daily Mail that Timberlake 'wants to create new music' and is weary of performing his old hits repeatedly. Fans online have also expressed disappointment. Timberlake reportedly appeared late on stage and sang only a few words of each song, wearing sunglasses throughout and moving listlessly. His wife, Jessica Biel, is said to be concerned about the toll the tour is taking on his mental and physical health. 'Jessica thinks Justin has aged years since he started the tour,' a separate source revealed, adding that he's become 'short-tempered both on and off stage.' While Timberlake has yet to publicly respond, many fans are urging a return to form, suggesting an NSYNC reunion might help lift spirits and restore energy to his performances.
