Benny Blanco and Selena Gomez
"The last thrift find I'm really proud of is this little pink Dora the Explorer jacket. It's so cute. It's a cropped, pink jacket — I think it's for a child — and I love it. It makes me feel sexy. I like a good heel. Scents: I like to use a hodgepodge. I want to smell [like] tobacco, but also like cotton candy. I want there to be an aroma as I'm walking by. I want it to smell a little bit like man, a little bit feminine — I definitely lean a little more feminine in every sense.
So there's this huge backlash about Selena's boyfriend being named one of People's Sexiest Man Alive. They say he's ugly and in no sense of the word can he be called "sexy." But he's super rich, like Selena, the writer of big hits for big artists and he reads gay. I know nobody cares but it just bugs me, you know? Is it true love?

Love is blind, love is blind. It’s all in the mind. It’s all part of the chance that give us romance.

He needs to trim his pubes… er… get a haircut.

She is worth $1 billion. She can date anyone or anything she wants.

I read the People article, he actually sounds quite charming. Except for the part where he doesn't shower every day.

Selena bought that People title for him

I think they’re a perfect fit.
I hope it all works out well for both of them.
BTW: He’s not classically handsome, but he works with what he has, & it’s clear he has a great attitude & a fun, adventurous personality.
Women LOVE this type of guy, which explains why she’s so into him.
Good for her!

I have never had good feelings about him until I read that People spread. Wow. He seems super fun, caring, creative and emotionally literate.
On the one hand, I hate this kind of shit in 2024, when the world feels like it's burning: "If you're wearing the most expensive thing that just came out, you're not fashionable. You're just a person who happens to spend their money. To me, it's all about high-low. I might wear a really nice vintage Prada jacket with a thing I found at Melrose Trading Post for $10." Like, I can't even believe people still are self-absorbed enough to have a clothing philosophy that they take seriously while also acknowledging that Trump is going to be our president again, there is war in Ukraine and the Palestinians are being cleansed, we are not any closer to solving the climate crisis, etc etc. I personally used to love reading vapid things like that -- in the 90s. These days I feel incredibly embarrassed and insulted that there are people still fingering their navels talking about hi/low fashion and blah blah blah.
But then he pivots and says something truly wonderful, like, "I completely understand if you go out on a date and the guy's being totally creepy — you should totally ghost the f--- out of him. But I don't want to ghost anyone. I always think whenever I'm doing anything like that, I'll think about my mom and I'll say like, "Oh, I want to treat this person like I would treat my mom and how I'd want someone to treat my mom." That is a class act.
I can see how he reads as sexy. He's very comfortable in his skin and knows himself very well, and has passion.

R8, you just do not understand this type of guy, because if you did, you’d know she not at all settling.
He probably treats her very well, makes her laugh HARD, & because of his confidence in the way he dresses, he’s probably good in bed, & might even be packing. 😂
I like him, & I get why she does, as well.

Miss Benny Blanco is GAY, she paints her toenails. He's a nice gay man.

I heard him on Howard Stern and really liked him. His face isn’t ugly, he just has really awful hair. But his personality makes up for it.

I saw him around one of BTS, the one with muscles. Almost giddy. Benny is one big rice queen if you ask me.

He sounds like a lot of fun. He should write a book about dating etc. His ideas about gifts are fantastic., So many loser guys can learn from him that personality counts more than looks for most women.

I had no idea Benny Blanco was a songwriter and producer -- I thought he was a chef?! He co-wrote and co-produced the song "Tik Tok" with Dr. Luke and Kesha. "Diamonds" by Rhianna. "Teenage Dream" - Katy Perry. He's a very accomplished and wealthy guy in his own right. Huh. I just had no idea.

She could have any man on the planet and she chose THAT? It must be an open relationship so she can cheat on him with hot guys. I mean even among her bodyguards there’s probably men more fuckable.

To R17-Selena has had "every man west of the Mississippi River" much like Kate (slag) Hudson.
She bought a Kidney from her "BFF" because of her LUPUS, not the massive amounts of drugs she was injecting over the years, we won't even mention all the sexual encounters with multiple partners.
What I have seen in the bathrooms& other areas of The Chateau Marmont since 1997!!
Bennie is GAY& it's an arrangement that works for them. Just like most of the Hollywood couples.

How do you know he’s not bi, R18? Maybe he likes both girls and guys. Same for Selena.

They are probably best friends firstly and foremostly. Just a couple of gabby gals who drink mimosas and cook brunch and watch movies and snuggle and gossip. And share clothes. Sounds fun, honestly.

She’s never been on my radar but I was surprised to see her profile on CBS Sunday Morning. A remarkable deficit of charisma for someone in her position.

Selena Gomez is cute as a button, but how the HOLY HELL did that kid end up with a BILLION dollars? The mind boggles. She's so basic. HOW?

Well he has to be 1000% better than Beber. So good for her for moving on and getting romantically involved with someone who isn't an obvious sociopath.
