Benny Blanco Reveals Valentine's Day Snack Recipe for Romance

Benny Blanco went above and beyond on Valentine's Day for his girlfriend, Selena Gomez, by finding a rare snack she enjoys and stating it helped him "get lucky".

"It's Valentine's Day and I've managed to get my girlfriend's favorite pickles. They're only available from Texas so it was a bit of a trouble to get them," shared the 35-year-old music producer in a TikTok video on February 14, showcasing the pickle brand Best Maid Pickles.

He filmed himself making the "Calm Down" singer, aged 31, deep fried pickles and also revealed a secret ingredient; Sprite. Benny added, "If it's not to your taste, then so be it," and he explained the process of dipping the pickle, adding some ranch and enjoying before wishing his viewers a Happy Valentine's Day.

Fans appreciated Benny's efforts in the comment section of the video, applauding him for going the extra mile to make his high-profile girlfriend feel special on Valentine's Day.

"It's obvious he truly loves and cares for her, he knows exactly how to make her happy," one fan wrote.

Many agreed that Benny and Selena's qualities and personalities complement each other well.

"Benny's vibe is magnificent and I adore Selena's as well, I bet hanging out with them is a blend of fun and soothing emotions," another fan chimed in.

The actress known for Only Murders in the Building marked their relationship on Instagram Stories by sharing a selfie with the caption, "I love you."

Selena unveiled her relationship with the star of Dave on December 7, 2023, after being together privately for 6 months. Much to her surprise, she received pushback when she made the relationship official on Instagram, prompting her to stand up for her boyfriend in public.

In response to a fan's comment, the Rare Beauty founder responded, "Well, he is still better than anyone I've been with in the past. I know what I want, and I'm not stopping until I get it. [Benny] has been the most wonderful person to me."

Near the end of the month, a source revealed to Life & Style that some of Selena's more outspoken fans were going "overboard". The insider added, "If things last with Benny, that's great. If not, it's up to her. She knows what she's doing."

The pair attended the Emmys together the following month - although Selena hit the red carpet alone, Benny supported her from off-camera and joined her inside. A source later disclosed to Life & Style that "Benny boosts her confidence a lot. He always tells her how gorgeous she is and how much he loves her."
