Blanco was friends with Justin Bieber
Benny and Selena have reportedly known each other for years. Blanco became friends with Gomez's ex-boyfriend, pop star Justin Bieber in 2009, a year before Bieber and Gomez started dating for the first time. Blanco has worked with Bieber and a variety of artists Gomez knows, including her other ex-boyfriend, The Weeknd, and her friend Camila Cabello, reported Elle.com.
The news of her being in a relationship with Blanco comes days after sources close to Gomez claimed she was only interested in casually dating. A source told Entertainment Tonight, "Selena is casually dating and doing well. She is doing her own thing and doesn't feel any sort of pressure to be in a relationship. She is just focusing on what's best for her right now and has been very in tune with maintaining her own boundaries. Her friends and family support her and just want her to be happy."
Benny Blanco is a 35-year-old record producer who had collaborated with Gomez on the song 'I Can’t Get Enough' in 2019. He also famously collaborated with Snoop Dogg and K-pop superstars BTS on the song 'Bad Decisions', playing a super-fan of the South Korean giants.
