Selena Gomez recently expressed her happiness and pride over her boyfriend Benny Blanco’s recognition as one of People magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive. In a heartwarming Instagram post, the singer and actress shared her excitement with fans by reposting one of Blanco’s photos from the feature, which showed him casually lying on a table with a pizza in front of him. “Not only does he love me unconditionally, but he also always brings me a Mexican Taco Bell pizza,” Selena captioned the photo with humor and affection.
In another post, Selena tagged Benny and shared a quote: “I still can’t sit across from him without being completely smitten by everything he does.” This public display of affection gave fans a glimpse into the couple’s relationship and Gomez’s genuine admiration for her boyfriend.
In his People interview, Blanco opened up about his love for Gomez, sharing personal details about their mornings together. “Morning is my favorite time to spend with Selena, as we both wake up early. It’s like having our own private moment before the rest of the world wakes up,” he told the magazine.
Blanco described Gomez, the “Calm Down” singer, as his true friend and someone he feels he can “do everything in the world with.” Reflecting on their relationship, he said, “Every day is the best day of my life with her. I put all my effort into each date, not by spending a fortune but by paying attention, listening, and making her favorite dishes, like crispy pickles and homemade Taco Bell.“
The couple started dating in mid-2023, and since then, Blanco has made it clear that he is dedicated to making every moment special for Gomez. His inclusion in People’s list has sparked some debate, with fans sharing mixed reactions on social media. However, Gomez’s recent show of support silenced any naysayers, underscoring her admiration for her partner.
Benny’s appearance in the publication sparked mixed opinions. Some fans questioned whether Blanco met the typical criteria for People’s “Sexiest Man” list, with one social media user commenting, “Benny Blanco is People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive. Folks, I want 2024 to end right now.” Nonetheless, Selena’s heartfelt posts celebrated Blanco’s achievement, showing her unwavering pride and love.
