Benny Blanco Reveals Surprising Facts About Himself on Jennifer Hudson's Show

Benny Blanco is peeling back the curtain on his relationship with Selena Gomez even more, and the timing couldn't be more interesting.

The producer and songwriter recently appeared on the Jennifer Hudson Show where he shared intimate details about his bond with Gomez on an episode that aired Monday. One of the most touching revelations? For his birthday, Blanco threw a surprise prom for the two of them—complete with a prom dress and all—because Gomez never got to attend one.

“She’s my best friend,” he said during the interview, reflecting on what it’s like to not only date but collaborate creatively with the Rare Beauty founder.

But while Blanco is busy celebrating love in real life, a TikTok audio is going viral for all the wrong reasons. An audio by a TikTok user—who also happens to be a rather convincing Justin Bieber impersonator—has garnered over 2.5 million likes with the lyric: “Ayo Benny, believe me, if I was with Selena, I’d be treating her better than you." The line, of course, references Gomez’s highly publicized past with Bieber, prompting some fans to question the intent behind the viral clip, with many believing this is a real unreleased Justin Bieber song.

To be clear, Benny Blanco has not addressed the viral audio publicly, and the song isn’t from Justin Bieber, despite what the vocals might have you believe. The track was created by a TikTok troll whose sole claim to fame seems to be their uncanny ability to mimic Bieber’s voice.

The timing of the viral moment also coincides with a string of cryptic and somewhat concerning social media posts Bieber has made in recent days, leading fans to worry about his mental state. Whether the TikTok moment added to that is unclear, but the internet certainly hasn’t made things easier.

Still, if Blanco's interview is any indication, his relationship with Gomez remains strong—and a wedding is still very much on the horizon.
