Benny may be known as Selena Gomez’s boyfriend, but the record producer has been making a name for himself in the music biz for years!
Benny Blanco was just named in PEOPLE‘s “Sexiest Man Alive” 2024 issue — and that should come as no surprise to his girlfriend, Selena Gomez! The two have been dating since at least mid-2023, but they’ve known each other for years. Thanks to his collaboration on some of her music, Selena developed a friendship with Benny before they fell in love.
Although Benny is head over heels for the pop star and actress, he’s been making a name for himself in the music industry for years. From performing alongside various artists to writing some of the most popular songs, Benny’s hard work has paid off.
