Selena Gomez Reveals the Dessert She Doesn't Want at Her Wedding to Benny Blanco — Plus the Surprising Food She Does

The singer-actress teased her wedding menu likes and dislikes in a newly shared interview clip "Who Says" biscuits and gravy aren't the perfect wedding dessert? Selena Gomez hinted at details about her forthcoming nuptials to fiancé Benny Blanco in a new interview clip shared by her brand Rare Beauty on Friday, July 25. Kicking things off with some menu brainstorming for when she and her music producer and cookbook author beau tie the knot — "Whenever that day comes" — Gomez, 33, said, 'I do know I don't want a big cake.' Instead, she explained, she wants a smaller and more intimate dessert, reserved for herself and Blanco, 37. Said Gomez: 'I think I'd want a mini one for just us that we can freeze.' Rather than a sweet treat, Gomez explained that her 'preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy.' But not just anyone's recipe: 'My Nana's biscuits and gravy,' she said. 'That sounds like dessert to me.' Despite Gomez's recent dessert dishing, she and Blanco — who got engaged in December 2024 — have 'not yet' begun planning their wedding, the music producer previously revealed. During the July 10 episode of the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast, Blanco explained that the couple hasn't begun wedding planning because they 'both need to chill" and have 'both been working so much.' 'We got engaged and then we were filming music videos for our album, then it's holidays, then right after the holidays we had to start all the promo for our stuff, do that,' the producer said. 'Then she left to film her show Only Murders [in the Building] and then I met her, then we hung out for a week, and then right after that it's promo, and then I'm writing another book.' The couple has been 'working on so many things that we hadn't even had time to get into it,' Blanco later added. "But we're so excited.' In the same Therapuss episode, the Open Wide author did, however, tease that he and Gomez may 'sit down' this summer 'and be like, 'Okay, what are we doing.' ' Plus, speaking about the type of wedding the couple will have, he said, 'I think it will be, like, chill." Blanco also shared a glimpse into his relationship with Gomez, telling host Jake Shane that while he doesn't usually like to lay in bed, 'with Selena, I can do it all day.' The singer, he added, 'makes me want to hang out and cuddle — just watch things, just eat food and have piles of food around us and have the best time ever.'

The pair has been open about how food plays a key role in their relationship, with Blanco previously telling PEOPLE that he goes 'all out' for dates with the Disney Channel alum. 'For Valentine's Day, I got her Taco Bell, I made her movie-theater nachos, I found her favorite pickles from Texas and I deep-fried them for her. Then [I had] all her candies and Hot Cheetos,' Blanco recalled in PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive issue. (The following year, he treated her to a bathtub filled with queso, complete with chips for dipping.) Similarly, Blanco also advises anyone seeking romance to learn how to cook for their partners — even if it isn't a strong suit. 'Even if you're terrible at cooking, [your partner will] like it because you did it,' the cookbook author told PEOPLE. 'Ask your partner what they want to eat. Don't try to cook them what you want to eat. If you don't know how to cook it — learn it.' Read the original article on People

Wallows Recall Morrissey Walking Out of Their Show: ‘That's the Perfect Morrissey Story'

Wallows joined Jake Shane's podcast Therapuss for a conversation covering everything from their formation and early memories to Morrissey's surprising appearance at one of their shows and Dylan Minnette's potential return to acting. The American alt-rock trio—Dylan Minnette, Braeden Lemasters, and Cole Preston—discussed everything from their teenage misadventures to the early days of their band, revealing how a Kings of Leon cover sparked their journey. More from Billboard Debbie Harry on Image Expectations in Music: 'I Wanted to Work' Bob Vylan Axed From Radar, Kave Fest After Glastonbury Backlash Neil Young Plays Rare Full-Band 'Ambulance Blues' With The Chrome Hearts 'That's why one of the first songs we ever learned, ever covered was a Kings of Leon song called 'Molly's Chambers,'' Minnette shared. 'I wanted to be like them. I don't think I ever got as rock and roll as they were—we're more Catan, cold brew, and cold plunge now.' Minnette also addressed persistent rumors about his acting career, clarifying he never officially stepped away from Hollywood. 'There was this weird narrative that I quit acting, but I never felt that or said that,' he said. 'I've had a desire to do it again in some regard, and if the right thing comes along, then the right thing comes along.' His last acting credit was Hulu's The Dropout in 2021, but he still describes 13 Reasons Why as 'the most fulfilling experience I ever had shooting anything.' The band reminisced about early chaos on tour—including an Ohio incident where 'someone got their head kicked into our van'—and their first Coachella set in 2019. 'It was nerve-racking,' Minnette recalled. 'We had never played the new songs live, never used in-ear monitors. It was a lot, and after that I was like, we're never doing Coachella as the first stop of the tour again.' Perhaps the wildest anecdote came when the band revealed Morrissey once attended a Wallows show. 'Morrissey came to a show we played,' Minnette recalled of the night at Los Angeles' Roxy Theatre. 'A couple of years ago, we did this 50th anniversary special show at the Roxy, and they asked us to play. We said, 'Yeah, we have a lot of history there.' And someone told us, 'Morrissey from The Smiths, he's apparently a big Wallows fan, he's asking to come to the show.' We were like, 'What are you talking about? Morrissey's not… yeah right.'' But as the night approached, their skepticism turned into disbelief. 'Then the day of the show, they're like, 'He's coming,' and we're like, 'Okay, right.' And then before the set, they were like, 'He's in the building, he's ready to watch.' And we were like, 'Morrissey's here?'' Minnette continued. The surreal encounter didn't last long. 'There's a really funny video of him sitting there — he looks so upset and he looks so mad. Apparently our fans are really loud, screaming girl voices, and it was way too loud for him. He left three songs in,' Minnette said with a laugh. 'That's the perfect Morrissey story. Didn't even need to meet him. It's the fact that he was there and left.' Wallows are currently gearing up for their summer festival run, which includes their third appearance at Lollapalooza.

Axios Event: Young consumers want realness from brands

CANNES, France – Young consumers are demanding authenticity, interactivity and relevance from media and brands with which they engage, said creators and industry leaders at an Axios event at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Why it matters: Millennials and Gen Z spending is outpacing the broader global population and companies are looking for ways to capitalize on that. Axios' Sara Fischer and Kerry Flynn spoke with podcast host Jake Shane, Spotify chief public affairs officer Dustee Jenkins, Business Insider CEO Barbara Peng and Dotdash Meredith CEO Neil Vogel at the June 18 event, sponsored by Uber Advertising. What they're saying: Young consumers are seeking more than just words about a brand's authenticity. "For Gen Z in particular, video podcasts have really grown. … They not only want to hear you, they want to see and feel exactly what's playing out," Jenkins said. "It speaks to this idea of tapping into culture. Culture is unfolding on platforms like Spotify, it's unfolding through the creators." "Influencing inherently is like an authentic thing," said Shane, the host of "Therapuss with Jake Shane." "If you're an influencer, you're a tastemaker, you're influencing people, and the only way you're actually able to do that is if you are like authentically yourself." Media companies are shifting attention to original video and smart TV platforms where audiences are watching long-form content. Business Insider's videos are watched for about 14 billion minutes a year. "A lot of it is YouTube, where we have audiences that want to engage very deeply with us," Peng said. "We have over 10 original series, and people like to watch that not only on their mobile phones but with the rise of smart TV and a lot of the streaming options, that's been huge." As for Dotdash Meredith and its repertoire of legacy brands, Vogel says it doesn't matter where consumers are finding their content, what matters is that they are engaging with it. "We get traffic from everywhere to our web – but we also don't care," he said. "I could care less if you're in the app, if you are on the website, if you read the magazine, if you're on TikTok or Instagram. As long as you are part of our brand, we can figure it out." "You can't say 'I am going to make Gen Z love me.' That's the quickest way to make Gen Z or any gen not like you. You just have to be authentic to what you do." On the creation of its unique app that had elements of its editorial content as well as Instagram and TikTok, Vogel added: "We didn't want to make an app until we could figure out how to do something special that would resonate with Gen Z." Content from the sponsored segment: In a View From the Top conversation, Uber's global head of advertising Kristi Argyilan said the company is the "platform of now" as it taps into cultural moments through concert rides, food deliveries and its newly launched creative studio. "That creative studio is designed specifically to cater to what we're hearing loud and clear from what we call 'Gen Uber,'" Argyilan said. "And this is a large group of consumers who want to be able to flip from digital world to physical world at a flip of a switch. And so we're bringing these activations that brands participate in that acknowledge their participation on our app but then also … eventually the destination they go to."
