Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco turned heads in true Hollywood style as they stepped out for their first public date night of 2024. The adored couple made their way to the iconic Los Angeles Lakers game, where they watched the Lakers take on the Miami Heat. The duo chose prime courtside seats, where they were seen enjoying each other’s company with heartwarming displays of affection.
Though they kept the PDA low-key, avoiding the classic kiss cam moment, Selena and Benny shared plenty of sweet gestures. Gomez, looking effortlessly chic in a black and white jacket, was all smiles as she waved to the jumbotron. Blanco, sporting a white top paired with a floral blazer that screamed SoCal flair, was spotted with a hand gently resting on Selena’s leg at times. In other moments, Selena lovingly linked her arm with his, painting a picture of relaxed intimacy that's pure Hollywood.
“He has treated me better than any human being on this planet,” Selena shared in a heartfelt Instagram comment confirming their relationship.

A source close to them dished to Entertainment Tonight, "Selena and Benny have been casually seeing each other for a while and more recently, it became more official." The insider added that Selena is feeling "content and relaxed" with how things are progressing.
Another source elaborated on their relationship, mentioning that "She feels so safe and secure with him." Benny is praised for being a great communicator, respectful, and genuine. The source emphasized that his intentions are sincere, sharing, "He isn’t a player, and not in it for the attention or fame." Selena's happiness shines through as she enjoys the new chapter, confident in Benny's honesty and support.
From charming courtside moments to supportive whispers from friends, Selena and Benny’s relationship is clearly thriving under the California sun, making their public debut a memorable Hollywood moment.
