Selena Gomez is enjoying an exciting year, which has reached a new height with her recent engagement to music producer and songwriter Benny Blanco. The talented performer is not only celebrated for her music but also for her work in mental health advocacy.
The Grammy and Emmy-nominated artist shared the joyous news through an Instagram post featuring her stunning engagement ring and a loving embrace with her fiancé. Her caption read, “Forever begins now,” indicating her excitement about this new chapter in her life.
Following her announcement, an outpouring of congratulations flooded in from friends and fellow celebrities. Rapper Lil Nas X expressed his happiness with the message, “So happy for you both,” while her close friend Taylor Swift humorously added, “Yes I will be the flower girl.” Other notable figures such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Lily Collins, and Padma Lakshmi also sent their well-wishes.
Gomez is also dedicated to making a positive impact through her work. In 2020, she established the Rare Impact Fund, alongside her Rare Beauty cosmetics line, pledging to donate 1% of all sales to support mental health services and education for young people, highlighting her commitment to philanthropy.
Her engagement partner, Benny Blanco, is not only known for his successful music career but also for collaboration with notable artists. He and Gomez previously worked together on the 2019 hit “I Can’t Get Enough,” featuring J Balvin and Tainy. Blanco’s impressive production credits include writing for iconic tracks like Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” Kesha’s “Tik Tok,” Britney Spears’ “Circus,” and Maroon 5’s “Moves Like Jagger.” His first major release, “Eastside,” with Khalid and Halsey, gained substantial acclaim after their performance at the 2018 American Music Awards.
