- Celebrities. Did Selena Gomez have an affair with John F. Kennedy's grandson? The singer responds to the speculation
The start of the romance between Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco generated plenty of headlines, due to the fact that the music producer isn't the most eye-catching celebrity.
He even recently joked about this quality and admitted that the beautiful singer is "doing charity" by being with him, given his physical appearance.
The romance began at the end of 2023, when Selena Gomez confirmed that after years of being single, she found love again after starting a relationship with Benny Blanco, who had previously worked with the singer.
However, the romance has not satisfied the singer's fans, precisely because Blanco's physique does not compare with the singer's beauty.
However, the producer takes these criticisms with good humor and even understands them: "She's doing charity with me, it's crazy", however he also said that he understands that Selena's fans hate him for his physical appearance.
But his interviewer pointed out that Benny Blanco has a big heart, and that he also has a successful career and these reasons are enough to have conquered Selena Gomez.
Selena Gomez fans recognize Benny Blanco
However, another sector of Selena fans have recognized these qualities and say that his physical appearance has never mattered to them. However, they point out that they criticize him because in previous years he referred negatively to Selena Gomez for being a singer with a cooking show and a line of makeup, but also for the toxic relationship she had with Justin Bieber, which caused serious emotional effects.
Nowadays, it seems that none of this matters, as the couple shares pictures and constant messages. Blanco is also very supportive of Gomez, accompanying his partner to the Emmy Awards ad the Golden Globes.
As for Selena, she doesn't seem to pay any attention to these comments, as on several occasions she has defended her partner when he is attacked on social networks.
"He's been the best thing that ever happened to me. The end. He's been better than anyone I've ever been with," she said.
"I've been in therapy since I was 18, I know what's best for me, and I'm going to fight until I get what I deserve. I appreciate your misguided input, but I am growing. Don't feel free to grow up on me, just know that I'm not dating a f***boy anymore, sorry to disappoint."
