Is Selena Gomez dating Benny Blanco?
By Lacey Womack
As someone who has been in the acting world since childhood, getting her start on Barbie and eventually making her big break on the Disney Channel before moving into music and movies, Selena Gomez is no stranger to the spotlight and everything that comes with it. One major part of being a celebrity includes people taking a magnifying glass to your love life and Selena Gomez is definitely very aware of that as someone who had a very public relationship and breakup with Justin Bieber.
Now, Selena Gomez is getting a ton of attention for possibly confirming that she’s in a relationship with music producer Benny Blanco.
Selena Gomez confirms Benny Blanco is her “everything”
When an Instagram account posted a compilation slideshow of evidence of their relationship that includes Selena Gomez talking about having a crush, Benny Blanco being followed by Selena’s mom, and Selena sharing Benny’s cookbook, Selena took to the comment section. “Facts,” the pop star wrote from her own Instagram account, apparently confirming that the account was correct and that the two of them are in a relationship.
After posting the comment, Selena Gomez stayed online for a while and shared a picture of herself with Benny Blanco to her Instagram story as well as replying back and forth with fellow social media users to defend their relationship.
“I appreciate your misguided input but I’m growing,” she commented to one person who is seemingly not supportive of the “Back To You” singer’s relationship.
But it wasn’t all arguing with the naysayers. Selena Gomez also took some time to leave complimentary comments about Benny Blanco and share a positive look into their relationship in another comment section on a fan account.
“He is my absolute everything in my heart,” she wrote and followed up in another comment reply to a fan that he is “the best thing that’s ever happened” to the singer.
While some fans have been supportive and posted messages about how “the heart wants what the heart wants,” there are other users that think Selena Gomez “needs to stay away from social media for a bit.”
