Gomez and Blanco first worked together in 2015, when Blanco co-produced two songs in Gomez’s second album Revival.
Blanco, an 11-time Grammy nominee, also shared the news of the album on his own social media, and made a post himself with videos from the couple’s album shoot, writing: “I can’t believe I get to spend the rest of my life with you.”.
A couple of years later, Gomez echoed the same, saying that she felt like she had “one more album in me,” but would prefer acting over a career in music.
Selena Gomez has announced a new collaborative album and a new single with “best friend” and fiancé Benny Blanco on Thursday.
Her last studio album was 2020’s Rare, and gave Gomez her first-ever No 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Lose You to Love Me”.
