As I gaze upon these delightful snippets of Selena Gomez and her beau Benny Blanco, it seems to me that they are indeed living their own little love song! Their bond is as sweet and infectious as one of Selena’s melodies, and it’s clear that they cherish each other deeply.


Selena Gomez isn’t the only one who loves Benny Blanco like a love song, baby.

In simpler terms, David Henrie, who starred alongside her on “Wizards of Waverly Place”, considers the music producer to be extremely charming following their recent meeting and casual get-together for the first time.

David shared with TopMob News correspondent Will Marfuggi during the Los Angeles premiere of Only Murders in the Building’s fourth season on August 22, that he had opted for a substantial amount of Italian cuisine. In other words, he went all out and ordered quite a bit of it.

To be precise, Benjamin Levin, who I had the pleasure of meeting at 35, was the one who introduced me to the delightful dish known as polenta Bolognese.

David mentioned that he referred to it as ‘adult baby food’ because of its texture, and he added that it was incredibly tasty! (For further insights from David, don’t forget to catch TopMob News on Monday, Aug. 26 at 11 p.m.)

For a number of years, the Disney star has been close friends with Selena, as they portrayed each other’s on-screen siblings during the original four-season span of “Wizards of Waverly Place” (2007-2012). Now that they’re back together for the sequel series “Wizards Beyond Waverly Place”, David has also had a chance to meet Selena’s boyfriend on set.

According to David’s statement to TopMob News, he observed Benny seated prominently in the crowd – he was there, watching and chuckling.

“You can hear his laugh on camera,” the actor quipped. “He’s great!”

And for David, seeing Selena at this stage of her life “means a lot to me.”

For quite some time now, I’ve stood by her side through thick and thin. I’ve witnessed firsthand the immense sacrifices she’s made, and let me tell you, it hasn’t been easy for her. Yet, with unwavering resilience, she’s faced her past hardships with a grace that leaves me in awe.

David added, “I’m so happy.”

32-year-old Selena began dating 36-year-old Benny this past summer following his work on her ‘Revival’ songs “Same Old Love” and “Kill Em With Kindness”, which dates back to 2015.

According to Benny, during a past conversation he recounted on The Howard Stern Show, it went something like this: “She said, ‘Fancy meeting you here, let’s spend some time together?’ To which I replied affirmatively. She then mentioned, ‘I wish I had dressed differently for this outing,’ and I responded, ‘Wait, is this a date?'”

Last summer, I, a dedicated follower, began dating Benny, who had previously worked on my 2015 hits “Same Old Love” and “Kill Em With Kindness” from the Revival album.

Back in the day, she casually asked me, “Fancy grabbing some time together?”, to which I eagerly replied, “Absolutely!” Little did I know that our casual encounter would later be labeled as a date. As we sat there, she mentioned, “I wish I had dressed differently for this occasion,” and my heart skipped a beat when I realized, “Wait, is this a date?” That’s how it all started, a simple question leading to an unforgettable moment on the Howard Stern Show.
