Selena Gomez Got a Rash After Nervously Kissing Benny Blanco for the First Time; Singer Admits ‘Feeling Embarrassed’

by

Since the release of their collaborative album “I Said I Love You First” on March 21st, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s romantic tale has been a hot topic. They’ve graced numerous podcasts and interviews over the past month, offering charming glimpses into their relationship, leaving fans all smiles.

On Wednesday, April 30th, the pair shared an episode of their podcast and discussed candidly their initially awkward first kiss that left Selena with a rash and rapid pulse.

During an open chat on the Table Manners podcast, Benny shared that during one of his early dates with Jessie and Lennie Ware, they opted to play a game called ‘We’re Not Really Strangers’. One of the cards in this game instructed them to take a selfie together.

Without hesitation, Selena leaned her head on his chest and snapped a smitten selfie. Overwhelmed by Selena’s charm, Benny couldn’t help but give her a tender kiss. In response, Selena’s heart began to race so quickly that she developed a blush on her cheeks.

As a devoted follower, I’ll share my own thoughts on the matter: I openly acknowledge that I experienced a flustered reaction which left me feeling slightly embarrassed. The reason for this unexpected response was that it had been years since I found myself genuinely liking someone. To clarify, some kisses are playful, but when there’s a genuine emotion behind a kiss, it transforms the experience entirely.

For over five years, I’ve been on my own, with only a handful of less-than-satisfying dates to break the monotony… until now. I had never felt that special connection before, and I was taken aback by it. And yes, I must confess, I did feel a tinge of embarrassment.

Apart from revealing a charming anecdote from their past, the pair disclosed another heartwarming tidbit about their initial courtship. It turns out that Selena would show up 20 to 30 minutes ahead of schedule for their dates and spend time outside Blanco’s house. “She didn’t know my cameras were watching her as she patiently waited,” Blanco explained.

Selena admitted, chuckling, ‘I was anxious because I found myself genuinely liking him.’ To prepare myself, I thought about arriving early, considering calling a friend for encouragement, or even touching up my makeup.

It appears that Benny and Selena were romantically involved starting roughly in the middle of 2023. They made their relationship official in December of that year by posting about it on social media and revealing their clandestine engagement. Prior to this, Selena was in relationships with Justin Bieber and The Weeknd.
