Benny Blanco Shares Intimate, Never-Before-Seen Photos of Selena Gomez

Benny Blanco Shares Intimate, Never-Before-Seen Photos of Selena Gomez

Yahoo2 days ago
As Selena Gomez rang in her 33rd birthday surrounded by her nearest and dearest inner circle, her fiancé Benny Blanco was by her side—and he took a moment after the disco-themed festivities quieted down to share a more private side of the singer. The music producer confirmed he's as smitten with Gomez as ever as he gave fans a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse of their 'dream' life together, complete with a subtle roast of his own sleeping beauty's napping habits.
'Our life is a dream… so I'm never waking u up… happy birthday my love,' Blanco wrote in a photo dump shared with his 3 million followers on Tuesday, July 22. In contrast to his emotional caption, he appeared to keep things light with his photos as he shared not one, but five different photos of his wife-to-be sleeping in random places. Selena's "Dreaming of You" fittingly played in the background.
In the first image, a blue hoodie-clad Blanco took a selfie in the back of a car while the 'Calm Down' singer dozed against his shoulder and the leather seats. A sleeping Gomez also made another appearance in the second photo, which showed her getting some shut-eye while snuggled up in a pink fuzzy blanket. The star could be seen wrapped in various cozy blankets while napping on the couch in two subsequent photos. The final image showed a makeup-free Gomez wearing a long-sleeved red shirt and clutching a sherpa blanket as she peacefully rested her eyes in bed.
The cozy unfiltered scenes were a contrast to the glam, '80s disco-inspired party that Gomez held for her birthday. Celebrating alongside celebrity BFFs like Taylor Swift and Sofia Carson, the Only Murders in the Building actress—who was dressed to the nines in a reflective black Nadine Merabi jumpsuit paired with a multi-watt Brilliant Earth diamond necklace and fuzzy white coat—also shared several sweet photos of her kissing Blanco as well as one of her kneeling on the ground outside while playfully grabbing his legs.
Reflecting on her 'incredible journey' over the past year, Gomez called 32 the 'most beautiful year of [her] life' in her emotional caption.

Why ELLE Editors Can't Stop Wearing This Celeb-Loved Jewelry Label

Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. As you might suspect, every ELLE editor has their own distinct sense of style. Some of us lean towards the classic or minimalist side of the spectrum, while others veer towards the more eclectic end. And naturally, if there's a polarizing fashion trend out there, we're going to have some thoughts. That said, there are also a handful of brands we can unanimously agree on—one such brand is Jenny Bird. On any given day, you'll find at least one of us wearing something from the Canadian jewelry brand. It makes sense—whether it be the bestselling Paige earrings that took the fashion set by storm, or a glimmering anklet (I love to stack the Dane with the Noa) to complement your summer 'fits—Jenny Bird has created a vast range of high-quality pieces that'll fit into anyone's wardrobe seamlessly—all while making a sartorial statement, too. Of course, if you aren't familiar with the editor-loved designer, odds are—if you haven't already seen it on your Instagram feed—you've spotted it on one of your favorite celebrities. Hollywood's biggest names, including Selena Gomez, Hailey Bieber, Bella Hadid, and Keke Palmer, can be counted as some of the brand's biggest fans. And to speak to the label's versatility, Sabrina Carpenter wore the bestselling Florence Earrings to her best friend Joey King's wedding. Wondering if Jenny Bird is worth the hype? If you're asking me and the rest of the ELLE fashion team, it is. We love our must-have pieces for their quality (no flimsy pieces here)—and, of course, the design. Standouts among the brand's bestselling (and most worn-around-the-office) staples include sculptural pieces inspired by elegant motifs, such as the egret, or even bolder button-style earrings that are sure to turn heads. And you can't ignore the fact that there are plenty of options that will round out your collection of everyday pieces. But I won't do all the talking here. Without further ado, see why ELLE editors can't stop wearing Jenny Bird pieces—and shop the ones we have in our collections right now. 'Like most of the ELLE team, I'm a Jenny Bird girl through and through. I wear these gold pieces on a regular basis—they go with everything and never seem to tarnish.' 'I've been a fan of Jenny Bird ever since I first learned of the brand, but it's the anklets and other statement pieces (like this choker) that have made me return to these pieces day after day. The designs feel modern yet timeless, and the quality alone is enough to tell me it's well worth the investment.' 'You wouldn't know it by this lineup, but I'm a huge believer in mixed metals, and Jenny Bird is one of the best jewelry brands in the game for mixing and matching silver and gold. But clearly, gold is my bread and butter. Anklets are one of my absolute favorite accessories—I love the subtlety and cool-girl feel—but I'm also into waist chains this summer.' 'I've been on Jenny Bird time for what must be years now and they continue to be some of my most worn and complimented pieces—literally almost every day. I love that the pieces are sculptural and sleek, durable but not too heavy (pro tip: get the lobe lifter earring backs for maximum comfort). The high polish silver is also perfect for someone like me who tends to lean towards white gold and chrome.' 'Jenny Bird is a go-to for so many everyday staples that will seamlessly integrate into your wardrobe. Many of the pieces, whether the rings, ear cuffs, or earrings add the right touch of texture to your look. Plus, they have a super chic selection of anklets (the coolest accessory, second to only the toe ring—and I stand by that!)' 'The smooth hinge mechanism on these U-Link earrings makes them effortless to throw on, even when I'm rushing out the door. They add an elegant finish to all of my outfits and are incredibly versatile. They also look much more expensive than they actually are! Another favorite of mine is the Dane Anklet Set. I praised this summer-ready duo in my anklet roundup, and I'm still wearing them on repeat. Lastly, I reach for my Staple Hoop Earrings practically every day. They're that perfect in-between size—not too big, not too small—with a bold, chunky silhouette that feels both timeless and modern. Every jewelry box needs a pair!' 'The Jenny Bird Large Staple Hoop Earrings in gold are, well, a staple of mine. And while I'm a gold hoop girl through and through, when it comes to adding bling elsewhere, I love to mix and match metals. I think a stack of ultra-thin bangles (especially in two-tone) is so chic, and I've been obsessed with wearing rope necklaces all summer long.'

Selena Gomez Launches Rare Beauty Perfume

Rare Beauty is at it again, releasing game-changing products in a market that feels hard to innovate in like there Soft Pinch Liquid Blush and Tinted Lip Oils. With Rare Eau de Parfum, Selena Gomez's brand has stepped into the world of fine fragrance for the first time, and I haven't been so impressed with a celebrity perfume in years. Team Cosmo UK was lucky enough to get our hands on the much-anticipated launch over two months ago to test it before it hit shelves. So yes, I've been carrying around this little vial of top-secret juice for weeks, fibbing whenever someone asks me, 'You smell great, what are you wearing?' And now, finally, we can spill the tea. So, below I'm sharing my thoughts on the new launch that hits Sephora on August 7. A full size bottle (50ml) will retail for $75, but the scene will also be available for purchase in a travel size (10mil) for $30. Grown-up, yet girlish and feminine without the need to be floral. To me, it smells like nuzzling into a fuzzy knit co-ord set that already has some of your favorite perfume on it from the last time you had it on. On first spray, and when you sniff it in the bottle, it really smells quite sweet—you can only overwhelmingly smell the caramel, pistachio and vanilla melding together and while it really smells like a fun, youthful bubble bath, I immediately thought I would hate it. If I were to judge it by its opening notes only, this would be an entirely different review. As it settles in, though, the sandalwood really pulls through, and it becomes a scent you will be obsessed with. It wears really well on me, as time passes it becomes a scent I like more and more throughout the day, to the point that I feel a little reluctant to re-spray, in case it ruins what the scent has become. A note on projection, now I don't think anyone was expecting a #beastmode type of perfume from our girl Selena, but in case you were wondering this is a personal fragrance. When people would comment on my scent, it would be when they reached in for a hug, not when I walked into a room. Thanks to the pink pepper at the top and the skin musks at the base, it has a real sense of Glossier You about it, and the buttercream that specifically gives Glossier You Rêve that lingering vanilla sweetness is super similar in Rare Eau de Parfum. Beauty can be so slapdash when it comes to inclusivity, and especially when it comes to accessibility being top of mind during product creation. But, for this launch, the team worked with a certified hand therapist and a team of packaging engineers to create an ergonomic fragrance bottle that makes dispensing the bottle comfortable for those with dexterity issues. Keeks Reid is the Beauty Director at Cosmopolitan UK. While she loves all things beauty, Keeks is a hair fanatic through and through. She started her career in beauty journalism in 2013 as editorial assistant at Blackhair and Hair magazines working her way to Acting Editor of Blackhair magazine at 23 years old. She spent much of her career working in trade hairdressing media at Hairdressers Journal, Salon International and the British Hairdressing Awards. Which is why she is a regular contributor to Cosmo's Curl Up franchise. Now, alongside her Cosmo work, she presents, creates content on social media and works with a range of beauty companies; from magazines and websites to beauty brands and salons.
