Courtside Date at Los Angeles Lakers Game: Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco Get Cozy

The most recent date night for Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco was a total bust!

The lovers were seen at a Los Angeles Lakers game against the Miami Heat on Wednesday night, where the visitors won 110–96. The duo was seated courtside at Crypto.com Arena.

Cuddling and holding hands, Gomez (31), and Blanco (35), showed their mutual affection in a very public way.

Just before the New Year’s holiday, Gomez shared an Instagram Story with a loving photo of herself and the music producer. Now, the two are out and about.

Blanco, who was wearing a colorful hoodie, embraced the Only Murders in the Building actress from behind while Gomez, who was wearing a dark oversized sweater, grinned at the camera. Blanco then planted a kiss on the actress’s neck.

A fan account published a black-and-white photo of Gomez and Blanco together in early December, seemingly confirming their relationship. Blanco and Gomez have been dating for over six months. Later on, Pop Crave shared the picture.

Posting a note regarding Blanco and responding to fan remarks, the “Come & Get It” singer enhanced the fan post’s comment box.

She commented, “He is my absolute everything in my heart,” before responding to another admirer with, “Then why has he been the best thing that’s ever happened to me?” And that was all.

On December 3, Gomez responded to an Instagram post from a fan account that has since been deleted. The post featured an image of Blanco and Gomez, with the title: “Selena Gomez Seemingly Confirms That She Is In a Relationship.” This heavily hinted at her relationship status and the identity of her new boyfriend.

Before posting a black-and-white selfie to her Instagram Story, which appeared to show her leaning against Blanco’s chest, she simply wrote, “Facts,” in response to the comment area.

In a recent interview for the SmartLess podcast, Gomez discussed her career and aspirations, saying, “I do feel like I have one more album in me but I would probably choose acting” when asked to choose between her two loves.

In her own words, she was exhausted and planned to just relax. Apparently my pastime became something else, because I always wаnted to be an actress and never intended to be a full-time singer.

“I adore being able to compose music and although I may not be the greatest singer, I am skilled at telling stories through music,” Gomez went on to sаy.

In the podcast, the former Wizards of Waverly Place star discussed the origins of her music career and how she eventually found herself balancing acting and singing. She continued by saying that her perspective has evolved over time.

As she got older, she expressed her desire to find a permanent solution.
