Rounding up her “favorite moments” from a week-long New York City trip, Selena Gomez shared a series of pics, including a birthday celebration for Taylor Swift, and a PDA pic with her new boo, Benny Blanco.
The carousel of content began with a glimpse of Taylor Swift’s 34th birthday festivities, followed by Selena being embraced and surrounded by some friends and boyfriend Benny Blanco. Also in the series, a BTS snap of Sel at her new Rare Beauty Find Comfort Body Collection launch, a pic of her watching How I Met Your Mother in bed, a pretty New York skyline, and dinner party hangs with her gal pals including Cara Delevingne.
But it’s the last pic that has us all oooh-ing and awww-ing at the adorableness, as Selena can’t seem to keep her hands to herself. Sitting in Benny’s lap, and leaning back to give her BF a kiss.
Selena confirmed her relationship with the music producer just last week, by responding “facts” to an Instagram post that speculated the two were dating, also adding, “He is my absolute everything in my heart.”
Since then SelGo hasn’t been shy about sharing her feelings for Benny, sporting and flashing a B ring, defending her mans to her many fans (who, let’s keep it 100, will never think anyone is good enough for Selener), and haters (who have nothing better to do).
“I don’t understand,” she said. “If you actually care about me. This is my happiest. If you don’t feel free to say whatever you want. But I will never allow your words to guide my life. Ever. I’m done. if you can’t accept me at my happiest then don’t be in [my] life at all.”
Selena also responded to a person who claimed Benny was “shading” her “years ago” with “lol yeah and he’s still better than anyone I’ve ever been with.”
Then in response to many trolls in the comments section of a follow up Popfactions account post, SelGo wavered between killing ’em with kindness, and telling it how it is. Responding to one person who referred to Benny as “so unhandsome” Selena to wrote back, “Feel bad for you.”
On the same post, Selena additionally clued us in to the timeline of her and Benny’s relationship when responding to a person’s comment about her being “mad” at her fans for their reaction to the dating news. Gomez wrote, “Not mad. It’s been 6 months bb. I will always defend my friends, family and fans till the day I die.”
Aside from sharing about her love life, Selena also used her rare (pun-intended) spree of social media activity to tease some of the new music she has on the way, and to get honest about cosmetic procedures.
In response to a comment about her appearance, Selena cheekily replied, “Hahahaha I’ve had Botox bb girl.”
On the same post, she teased the release of her forthcoming album, saying, “Omg I’m so excited it’s coming” when a fan asked for “good music.” And also noted music is coming “way before my birthday,” which btw for those who don’t know is in July.
