Benny Blanco Takes Selena Gomez to Prom & Shares Snaps From Their Adorable Mall Photoshoot

Yahoo25-04-2025

Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez are kicking off prom season early, with the couple attending their own version of the traditional American high school event in a video posted by the producer on Thursday (April 24).
In text typed over the Instagram clip, Blanco explains that — since his fiancée never got the chance to go to her own prom as a teenager — he asked the Rare Beauty founder to get dressed up with him and take photos at the mall as if they were attending a fancy school dance. The video then shows Gomez getting ready in a purple ballgown and planting a kiss on the 'Eastside' musician after doing the traditional walk-down-the-stairs dress reveal.

While in the limo on the ride over, Blanco excitedly leans out the window and tells the driver in the lane next to him: 'We're going to prom!'
The couple then participates in an adorable photoshoot, with Blanco wrapping his arms around Gomez for one shot and the Only Murders in the Building actress sitting on his back, Blanco down on all fours in his tux, for another. 'It was more fun than either of us expected it to be,' the Open Wide author wrote.
The post comes a couple weeks after Blanco opened up about throwing a prom for his 37th birthday in March while on The Jennifer Hudson Show. 'Selena had never been to a prom before, so I thought I'd throw us a prom for my birthday,' he gushed at the time. 'She didn't even know. She was like, 'What am I supposed to wear? What am I supposed to do?' It was like she was really going to prom. I got her a little corsage.'
After first starting dating in mid-2023, Blanco and Gomez got engaged in December last year. In March, they dropped their first joint album as a couple: I Said I Love You First, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200.

Jason Isaacs supports Tom Felton for Harry Potter return on Broadway

Jason Isaacs has already booked his tickets to see Tom Felton in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. The 62-year-old actor played Lucius Malfoy - the father of Tom's character Draco - in the Harry Potter movie franchise and he's delighted his former on-screen son will be reprising the role in the Broadway show. He wrote on X: "Saw you presenting on the Tonys tonight son - you looked good, sounded good and did great. Tickets booked for November x." He was responding to a clip of Tom, 37, on the red carpet on Sunday (08.06.25) where he reflected on Jason's performance in The White Lotus. He told E! News: "He's fantastic. He's superb in everything he does. "I've learned so much from him — just as much off screen as I have done on screen... I still call him dad and he still calls me son. "So, hi dad!" While Tom has never appeared on the New York stage before, his Harry Potter co-star Daniel Radcliffe - who played the titular boy wizard in all eight films - has starred in five productions so has been only too happy to offer help and guidance to his friend. Tom told PEOPLE magazine: "My old school chum, Potter, Radcliffe, has done quite a bit of Broadway, so he's holding my hand and certainly helping me through all the things that are hard to learn. "But from what I gather, it's an amazing community of people. The fans are really, really gracious and excited. So I'm just thrilled to be part of it." Meanwhile, Jason has also addressed the latest casting news for HBO's upcoming Harry Potter TV revival, which included Johnny Flynn being revealed as the new Lucius Malfoy. In a video shared on Instagram discussing his former 'Operation Mincemeat' co-star, he said: "I just heard that the great Johnny Flynn with be playing Mr. Malfoy in the new HBO TV series, which is sensational news for Harry Potter fans, which I want because Johnny is a brilliant actor. "Irritatingly, he's a brilliant musician as well, and a really lovely I can't wait to see what he comes up with. "Johnny, if you're watching this, enjoy yourself." Elsewhere on Tuesday (09.06.25), it was confirmed that Lox Pratt has been cast as Draco, while Bel Powley and Daniel Rigby will play Petunia and Vernon Dursley, and Katherine Parkinson is also joining as Molly Weasley.

Tears As Shelter's Longest Resident Dog Watches the Puppies Being Adopted

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. An Instagram reel from the Humane Society of Broward County has left viewers heartbroken as a dog sadly looked on to other puppies getting adopted. In the video, the adult shelter dog named Pretzel watches another dog get adopted while she remains overlooked. Since the video was posted, it has received 16,000 likes and dozens of pleas from Floridians to adopt the dog. "It's just not fair," the Humane Society captioned the reel. "Beautiful girl Pretzel has been waiting for a forever home for almost three months and is officially our shelter's longest resident. Sadly, this is the reality for many adult dogs. While the puppies get adopted quickly, our wonderful adult dogs can wait months to find a family." Stock photo: A dog in a kennel looks outside. Stock photo: A dog in a kennel looks a 3-year-old mother dog, carries a particularly sad past. She was "given up" after raising her puppies for her owner, the caption stated. Described as "gentle [and] a little shy at first," Pretzel is "still trying to understand that people can be kind." Once she feels safe, though, they added that her "true personality shines," and she is playful and affectionate. Her favorite things? Belly rubs, treats, water and taking long sprints outside. "[She] just wants to be part of a family again," the Humane Society concluded. "Pretzel is ready to start over. She's ready for a home where she can feel safe, loved and never left behind again." How Did Viewers React? The sight of Pretzel watching younger, more easily adopted dogs struck a chord with Instagram users. Many expressed overwhelming sadness for overlooked adult dogs compared to puppies in shelters. "I'm so insanely thankful for the workers and volunteers at shelters, because it must wreck their hearts to see these angels everyday getting passed over," one person wrote. Another, dreaming of a grand rescue, shared, "My goal is to buy a house in the ranches so I can adopt them all." One comment highlighted Pretzel's past as a mother. "This broke my heart cause you see she's had litters of puppies, and she must feel so used," the commenter wrote. "Being somewhere where it's a constant reminder of your mistreatment is so heart breaking. Probably has trauma seeing puppies carried away from her as well." The plight of adult dogs like Pretzel is a common challenge in shelters. While puppies often find homes quickly, adult dogs, despite often being house-trained and having established personalities, tend to wait longer. As one commenter pointed out, Pretzel is the "perfect age." "Puppies are a lot of work," they wrote. "Don't get me are worth it, but not everyone has the time or patience to train a puppy. We adopted an adult dog years ago, and she was the most amazing dog. Please someone give this beautiful dog a chance!" Despite the widespread emotional outpouring and expressions of interest on the initial post, there has been no update on Pretzel's adoption status. Newsweek reached out to @humanebroward for comment via Instagram.
