Benny Blanco Explains How Selena Gomez Has Turned Him Into a ‘True Swiftie’ on ‘Hot Ones’

Benny Blanco said that Selena Gomez has made him a Taylor Swift fan over the course of their relationship. Watch.

In addition to the pop star being one of his famous fiancée’s closest friends, the producer has also apparently welcomed Swift’s music into his life after the Rare Beauty founder got him hooked. The couple’s appearance on Hot Ones arrives just one day ahead of their joint album, I Said I Love You First, which is led by singles “Scared of Loving You,” “Call Me When You Break Up” featuring Gracie Abrams and “Sunset Blvd.” Before the heat of the wings took over Gomez’s ability to speak, she said of working with her partner on the LP, “I felt like I could tell him things that maybe I was feeling insecure about that I wouldn’t feel like I could open up to any other producer that way, let alone like a partner.” Blanco also struggled to get through the final questions, noting that the heat of the wings was making him lose “motor skills.” And at the end, the pair disagreed on whether the Hot Ones challenge is suitable for couples.
