Selena Gomez Says ‘I Said I Love You First’ Album Taking Precedence Over Wedding Plans: ‘That’s My Main Focus Right Now’

Selena Gomez says her joint album with Benny Blanco, 'I Said I Love You First,' is currently taking precedence over the couple's wedding plans.

“We did everything from home, and we created it with people that we love,” she said, citing a re-team with songwriters Julia Michaels and Justin Tranter, who she worked with a decade ago on her Billboard Hot 100 No. Plus, given Blanco’s platinum status contact list, roping in current chart queens like Gracie Abrams (as well as Billie Eilish collaborator and older brother Finneas for two songs) was easy, and made perfect sense. Blanco has known the “That’s So True” singer since she was 14 — she used to date one of his close friends — so when it came to inviting Abrams, 25, into their circle of trust to record “Call Me When You Break Up” he said it was not only a slam dunk, but seemingly meant to be.
