Selena Gomez recently shared a TikTok gem featuring her fiancé, the multi-talented Benny Blanco, attempting to navigate the makeup world. Spoiler alert: it's as entertaining as you'd imagine.

In the video, Selena hands over her Rare Beauty products to Benny, who dives into the makeup application with all the confidence in the world. His commentary is pure comedic brilliance. For instance, he refers to the foundation as "hand lotion" and mistakes a contour stick for either lipstick or a "magic marker." At one point, he muses, "I just realized makeup is just drawing all over your face." Classic Benny.

Selena and Benny: A Creative Power Couple

Beyond their playful TikToks, Selena and Benny have been making waves in the music scene. They recently announced their upcoming collaborative album, "I Said I Love You First," which will drop on March 21. The album boasts 14 tracks, including a Spanish song, "Ojos tristes," and a collaboration with Gracie Abrams called "Call Me When You Break Up." 

"We can't wait to share this special project with you soon," Gomez wrote on Instagram. Blanco shared on his page behind-the-scenes clips from their album photo shoot and writing, "i cant believe i get to spend the rest of my life with you."  Blanco is an impressive producer, and had collaborated with almost every major artist you can think of, including Ed Sheeran, Rihanna, SZA, Ariana Grande, and even Justin Bieber, who was reportedly "offended" by Benny's relationship with Selena, as they were very close friends after they met in 2009. "Justin confided in Benny about his heartbreak over Selena," a source revealed. "In a way, he felt betrayed, even though he knew he had no right to feel that way."

Their relationship, which became public in late 2023, has made headlines left and right. In 2024, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco announced they are getting married. In December, Selena revealed that Benny, 36, popped the question in a professionally staged proposal that resembled a park, complete with lush greenery, champagne toasts, and a spread of their junk food favorites.
