Selena Gomez Shares New Intimate Pics of Recent Life With Benny Blanco
She captioned her carousel, 'Past and present 💕 …'
In the first pic, they're standing in front of a mirror for Gomez to take a selfie and she has her arm around Blanco's shoulders.
In the next picture, they're standing outside at night and Gomez is looking at Blanco with a huge smile on her face.
In her Instagram Stories, she shared a few strips from a photo booth in black-and-white taken at the bar Rough Trade. They are playfully hugging and enjoying themselves in front of the camera.
The next picture, in color, shows Blanco kissing Gomez on her forehead. She's wearing a pale pink pajama top and holding a white mug. Blanco is in a blue short-sleeved shirt with beaded embroidery on the sleeves and collar.
Gomez and Blanco got engaged in December 2024, but it seems like they might have made wedding plans and sent the invitations already. In May 2024, Ed Sheeran did a Vanity Fair's lie detector test and confirmed he was on their guest list and had received an invite, but did not offer any more details.
In a few different interviews, Gomez and Blanco have made some comments on what they think their wedding will be like. On an April 30 episode of Table Manners With Jessie and Lennie Ware podcast, they were asked about doing a first dance at the reception.
'I don't think we're looking at having one of those,' Gomez began. ''Cause they're a little—'
'She's shy,' Blanco interrupted.
'I feel embarrassed,' she clarified. 'I will have a special dance with my papa, who he is my grandfather and he's my mom's father. And he never got a chance to walk my mom down the aisle because good for my mom. She decided to go to Vegas and be like, 'Whoo,' and she's still been with [her husband, Brian Teefey] ever since they were like 26. So it's very cute that they did that, but I wanted to give him an opportunity to have that.'

Justin Timberlake Shocks Fans With Lyme Disease Revelation After Tour Finale
After wrapping his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, which began on July 31, Justin Timberlake left fans stunned with a heartfelt Instagram confession. The pop icon revealed he was privately battling Lyme disease during the entire trek, pushing through relentless pain and fatigue. Following the revelation, several fans took to the post's comment section to express their love for the singer. Justin Timberlake Opens Up About His Struggles Timberlake began his message with raw honesty, writing, 'Well, as these two incredible years come to an end and I look forward to the future, I wanted to write something from the heart. It's not an easy task to try to contextualize the whirlwind of touring — but, I will try…' He reflected on the highs and lows of the road, calling the experience, 'the most fun. Emotional. Gratifying. Physically demanding, and, at times, grueling experience.' Timberlake added, "I have been doing this for 30+ years (which feels crazy to say) –– and have given all that I have to this. I could not have done it without my family, friends, The TN Kids, and all of YOUR support." Battling Lyme Disease In Silence Timberlake reminded his fans of his private nature, noting, "As many of you know, I'm a pretty private person. But as I'm reflecting on the tour and festival tour – I want to tell you a little bit about what's going on with me." The singer revealed what had been hidden behind the spotlight, noting, 'Among other things, I've been battling some health issues. And was diagnosed with Lyme disease.' He continued, 'I don't say so you feel bad for me — but to shed some light on what I've been up against behind the scenes. If you've experienced this disease or know someone who has then you're aware: living with this can be relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically.' Despite nerve pain, exhaustion, and sickness, Timberlake chose resilience. He wrote, "When I first got the diagnosis I was shocked for sure. But, at least I could understand why I would be onstage and in a massive amount of nerve pain or, just feeling crazy fatigue or sickness. I was faced with a personal decision." Timberlake added, 'Stop touring? Or, keep going and figure it out. I decided the joy that performing brings me far outweighs the fleeting stress my body was feeling. I'm so glad I kept going.' Justin Timberlake Thanks Fans And Crew Timberlake credited fans and his touring family for carrying him through. He shared, 'To everyone of you who came to see me on The Forget Tomorrow Tour or JT Live '25 (or any other tour or show throughout the years for that matter)… your energy and love continues to humble me. Your signs, messages, and DIY t-shirts have made me laugh and smile so many times… You have made my dreams come true.' He praised his team, saying, 'Tour life really is like nothing else. It takes a special type of person to be able to do it — much less do it well. You all have been such a beautiful family away from home for me.' The 44-year-old continued, "I will always treasure our time these last couple of years together. I can't wait to see what everyone gets up to next. I know it will be exciting!" He added, "There really is no way to put into words the feeling of being on a stage and getting to share the experience of live music with all of you. It's a vibration of frequency that is unmatched. Sacred to me." Timberlake Uncertain About His Future Justin Timberlake admitted uncertainty about his performing future, noting, 'I honestly don't know what my future is onstage but I'll always cherish this run! It's been the stuff of LEGEND for me.' He added, "If you've made it this far in this caption, you deserve a medal. My heart is filled with gratitude! Love each other. Be good to each other. Don't take it for granted." Timberlake closed with love for his family, writing, 'To Jess, Silas, and Phin... Nothing is more powerful than your unconditional love. You are my heart and my home. I'm on my way…' Justin Timberlake's Fans Flood Him With Supportive Messages Following the post, several fans took to the comment section to show their love and support for Timberlake. One fan wrote, "Being able to perform at this level for this long is nothing short of extraordinary! You truly are an inspiration! No one can perform the way you, all of us fans love and will continue to support you for years and years to come!" Another fan commented, "Justin, you didn't need to share this, but so glad you did. You didn't need to go on with the tour, but so glad you did. Take care of yourself and don't be a stranger!" A third fan noted, "Thank you for being open and thank you for pushing through to continue performing! I saw you 3x this tour and each time was phenomenal! I wish I could've seen more shows! We all love you and thank you for giving us all you do!" According to Mayo Clinic, Lyme disease is an infection caused by Borrelia bacteria, most often spread through the bite of an infected tick. While ticks that carry the bacteria are found across the United States, Lyme disease is most common in the upper Midwest, Northeast, and mid-Atlantic regions. People who spend time in grassy, brushy, or wooded environments are at greater risk. Simple precautions, such as using repellents, wearing protective clothing, and checking for ticks after outdoor activities, can help reduce the chances of infection and protect against the disease.

Will Taylor Swift Play Super Bowl 2026? Her Fans Have a Theory
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. This week, Taylor Swift announced her highly anticipated 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, during an appearance on New Heights, the podcast co-hosted by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Now, Swift's excited fans have a theory that she left an Easter egg in the episode. Swifties believe the singer has left a trail of clues suggesting that she is performing as the halftime entertainer at the upcoming Super Bowl. Newsweek has contacted a representative for Swift for comment via email outside regular working hours. Why It Matters The Life of a Showgirl marks Swift's first album release since her record-breaking Eras Tour—the highest-grossing tour in history—wrapped in December. Earlier this year, Swift bought back the rights to the master recordings of her first six albums: Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989 and Reputation. "You belong with me," she wrote on social media on May 30 alongside a photo of herself surrounded by her albums—a reference to her 2008 song by the same name from her sophomore album. The Life of a Showgirl is Swift's 12th record and the fifth one she has released in the past five years, following Folklore (2020), Evermore (2020), Midnights (2022) and The Tortured Poets Department (2024). Taylor Swift cheers from a suite as the Kansas City Chiefs play the Chicago Bears at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on September 24, 2023. Taylor Swift cheers from a suite as the Kansas City Chiefs play the Chicago Bears at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on September 24, To Know Swift's fans have been buzzing with excitement and theories following the pop superstar's announcement earlier this week, but one theory in particular is gaining ground with her fan base. During the two-hour-long podcast, which has been viewed more than 16 million times on YouTube, Swift discussed her hobbies outside making music, which include baking sourdough bread. She said, "I'm really talking about bread 60 percent of the time now." While this may seem like an innocuous comment, in the Taylor Swift fandom nothing is ever treated as such. In an Instagram reel from Grind City Media, Jessica Benson, a reporter who covers pop culture and sport, said, "I think Taylor Swift is going to be the Super Bowl halftime show performer." "I don't think Taylor Swift is actually baking sourdough bread. I think it was an Easter egg," Benson said. The Super Bowl LX is scheduled to take place at Levi's Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers, and Benson noted that the 49ers' mascot is Sourdough Sam. The Grind City Media reel has been viewed more than 7 million times. The account @swiftiesforeternity also promoted the theory, writing in the text overlay of an Instagram post: "Taylor's 47th show was at Levi's Stadium. That's where super bowl 60 is... which is the 49ers stadium... and their mascot? 'SOURDOUGH SAM,' Taylor said she talks about sourdough 60 percent of the time, and kept saying 47 in the podcast." Swift is known for leaving a trail of clues for her fans that hint to upcoming albums, song lyrics or other key events for the singer. "I want Easter eggs to be a certain thing where if you are part of the fandom and you want to experience music in a normal way, then you don't even see these," she said during the New Heights episode, adding, "But if you want to look at that then it's there." For those searching for potential Super Bowl-themed Easter eggs, the podcast itself may be one. Some Taylor Swift fans were a little dismayed by the superstar choosing to announce her new album on a sports podcast, but if she is hinting at a Super Bowl performance, it could all be part of a bigger picture. It wouldn't be the first time that an appearance of Swift's has been an Easter egg. During the podcast, she referenced what she described as one of her favorite Easter eggs: the commencement speech she gave when she received an honorary doctorate from New York University in 2022. "I put so many lyrical Easter eggs in that speech that when the Midnights album came out after that, the fans were like, 'The whole speech was an Easter egg,'" Swift said on the podcast. Fans on social media have also noted that a silver football and a silver microphone were sitting behind Swift during her podcast appearance and that the singer made multiple references to the number 47 during the episode. Fans believe this is an Easter egg because her 47th show of the Eras Tour was at Levi's Stadium. It is important to note that Swift's fans regularly theorize about the singer's next move, and their theories often fall short, a phenomenon known in the fandom as "clowning." The theories about Swift being a halftime performer are all speculative and fan-driven. There has been no confirmation from the signer or the NFL that she will perform at the Super Bowl. What People Are Saying Taylor Swift said on the New Heights podcast: "As we all know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast, and um, I think we all know that if there's one thing that male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens, it's more of me." X user @chartstswift wrote in a post viewed more than 1.4 million times: "Taylor Swift could be hinting at the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show: On 'New Heights,' Taylor said she has watched every Super Bowl halftime show, thinks about sourdough '60 percent of the time,' and mentioned the number 47 several times. Coincidentally, or not, Sourdough is the San Francisco 49ers' mascot. The 49ers will host the 60th Super Bowl at Levi's Stadium—which also happened to be the 47th stop on the Eras Tour. And, of course, 2026 will be Travis Kelce's 13th NFL season." What Happens Next Super Bowl LX is scheduled for February 8, 2026, in Santa Clara, California. The halftime performer is often announced in the early portion of the regular NFL season, around September.
