Mall Location Hosts Special Prom Photoshoot for Selena Gomez, Organized by Fiancé Benny Blanco
Benny Blanco's High School Prom Make-Up Call for Selena Gomez
Music producer, Benny Blanco, wanted to gift his fiancé, Selena Gomez, an unforgettable high school moment she supposedly missed out on - the prom experience. On his Instagram, Blanco shared a montage of their prom-themed extravaganza, confessing that Gomez never attended a prom before.
"So I asked her if we should take prom photos together at a mall," he wrote, mentioning her agreement to the plan. With all the hustle and bustle, Gomez was seen getting glammed up by her team while Blanco stood by in his stylish tuxedo.
Dressed in a stunning fuchsia high-low gown, complete with black tights and chunky black heels, Gomez descended the steps like a radiant queen. Blanco rented a stretch limo for their trip to the mall and posed with his lady love in the classic prom pose - Blanco clutching Gomez's waist from behind. They also snapped a series of snaps with fun props, such as a pedestal and unconventional backdrops, reminiscent of the popular - yet somewhat awkward - JCPenney family portraits.
When Blanco threw a prom for his 37th birthday earlier this year, Gomez was in for a delightful surprise. She seemed clueless about the event, asking, "What am I supposed to wear? What am I supposed to do?" Blanco had met Gomez in 2015 when he worked on her single, "Same Old Love." Although they didn't officially start dating until 2023, they went public in 2024 and announced their engagement the same year.
During a 2023 interview on the "Jennifer Hudson Show," Blanco revealed the background of their untraditional prom night. It appeared to be an emotional, memorable event for both of them, bringing a long-missed high school tradition into Gomez's life.
It seems that Blanco's romantic gesture struck a chord with social media users, earning appreciative comments. A curious aside, Justin Bieber posted on Instagram around the same time, causing fans to speculate about potential hidden meaning behind his comments.
