Selena Gomez References ‘Past' Failed Romances on New Song With Fiance Benny Blanco
Selena Gomez made a subtle reference to her former relationships in her and fiancé Benny Blanco's new song 'Scared of Loving You.'
'If I broke your heart / Would you take me back? / If I broke my arm / Would you sign my cast?' Gomez, 32, sang in the first verse of the track that dropped on Thursday, February 13. 'When I was young / I would love too fast / Hope I don't repeat my past.'
Before finding love with Blanco, Gomez was romantically linked to several A-listers over the years. The singer dated Nick Jonas when they were both Disney Channel stars. She also had a short-lived romance with The Weeknd. Gomez was famously in an on-and-off relationship with Justin Bieber from 2011 to 2018. The pair called it quits for good months before Bieber wed wife Hailey Bieber.
While Gomez admitted on her new song that she was nervous about making the same mistakes in her new romance, she shared that this time something felt different.
Looking Back at All of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco's Musical Collaborations
'Cause I'm not scared of loving you / I'm just scared of losing you,' Gomez sang on the ballad's chorus. 'I'm not scared of anyone / Or dying young / Or if you're gonna find somebody new / Because how could they love you as much as I do.'
Gomez announced that she and Blanco, 36, were releasing an album together.
'I always trick you guys 🥰 my NEW album I Said I Love You First with my best friend @itsbennyblanco, is out on 3/21 🖤,' she wrote via Instagram alongside the album's artwork that featured the couple. 'Our first song, 'Scared of Loving You' is out now on all streaming platforms. Merchandise and signed products for the album are available for pre-order now. We can't wait to share this special project with you soon!'
The post included a series of snaps of Gomez and Blanco. One photo — which also serves as the cover art for 'Scared of Loving You' — featured a glimpse from a keyhole peeping in on the pair as they sat on a bed together. An additional snap included another angle from the bed scene. Gomez's head is turned toward the camera as she remains in a tabletop position. Blanco, for his part, is staring lovingly at his fiancée.
Blanco and Gomez confirmed they were dating in December 2023 after being friends for years. Before their relationship turned romantic, the pair collaborated in the studio on several hit songs including 'Same Old Love,' 'Kill Em With Kindness' and more.

One year after they went public with their romance, the couple got engaged.
'Forever begins now,' Gomez captioned a December 2024 Instagram post, that showed off her engagement ring. Blanco celebrated the milestone moment, writing in the comments section, 'Hey wait… that's my wife.'
Last month, Blanco and Gomez hinted they were working on a project together. When asked by a fan to 'make some new songs for our queen' on social media, the record producer created a TikTok that featured Gomez adjusting a microphone as she sat on a couch. In the video, she smiled as Blanco approached and playfully said, 'Hi.'

Jared Leto denies sexual misconduct after facing accusations from multiple women
Jared Leto has been accused of sexual misconduct by nine women in a lengthy exposé published by Air Mail on Friday. A representative for Leto has denied the accusations. Allegations against the Thirty Seconds to Mars singer, 53, resurfaced last month when Los Angeles DJ Allie Teilz reshared a Facebook post she made in 2012 on her Instagram Story. 'Youre [sic] not really in L.A. until Jared Leto tries to force himself on you backstage… In a kilt.. And a snow hat. I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17,' she wrote. 'I was assaulted and traumatized by this creep when I was 17,' she wrote in another Story. 'He knew my age and didn't care. What he did was predatory, terrifying and unacceptable.' The Independent has contacted Leto's representatives for comment. One of the women in the Air Mail article claims, 'it's been an open secret for a long time' that Leto is known for texting teenage models. Another said she was 16 when Leto approached her and got her number in 2006. She says the actor began calling her in the middle of the night and making sexual remarks. In response, a representative for the star said that Leto has been sober for more than 35 years after the accuser speculated that he was on drugs during the calls. Leto 'has not had a drink or used drugs in over 35 years,' said the spokesperson. Laura La Rue, a model who was also 16 when she met Leto, claimed she had a similar interaction after Leto invited her to visit him in his music studio. 'Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate,' Leto's representative told Air Mail, 'and Ms. La Rue later applied to work as Mr. Leto's personal assistant, further underscoring the absence of anything inappropriate in any of their interactions.' La Rue reportedly denied ever applying to work as Leto's personal assistant. A fourth woman, who said she began a texting relationship with Leto when she was still underage, said his advances ramped up when she turned 18. She claims that during a subsequent visit to Leto's house, he began masturbating in front of her. 'All of the allegations are expressly denied,' Let's representative said in response More to follow

Big Taylor Swift Announcement Made Following Wedding Appearance with Travis Kelce
Big Taylor Swift Announcement Made Following Wedding Appearance with Travis Kelce originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After a relatively low-key start to 2025—during which Taylor Swift intentionally stepped back from the spotlight—her presence has dramatically surged over the past two weeks. The momentum kicked off with her long-awaited announcement on Instagram and her official website that she has regained ownership of all her masters, marking a monumental milestone for the 35-year-old global superstar. "All of the music I've ever made… now belongs to me," Swift wrote. "All of my music videos. All the concert films. The album art and photography. The unreleased songs. The memories. The magic. The madness. Every single era. My entire life's work." Since that announcement, Swift has been seen publicly several times, with the most recent appearance on Friday, when photos surfaced of her attending a wedding alongside her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce. Check it out: Following several photos of the power couple at a recent wedding, some major news about Swift's music emerged. On Saturday morning, it was reported that Apple Music has officially updated its platform and copyright credits to recognize Taylor Swift as the rightful owner of her entire discography Fans reacted to the news: "Awesome news. Thank you Apple. Congratulations Taylor," a fan said. Someone else added, "this is why APPLE MUSIC always ended SLOWTIFY." Another fan posted, "I was waiting for this!"
