What is Benny Blanco’s net worth? Record producer gets engaged to Selena Gomez
Taylor Swift is among the celebrities who have congratulated Gomez and Blanco on the engagement, which they announced on Instagram.
After month of rumours, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco have announced their engagement via a post on the actress' official Instagram account.
“Forever begins now..” reads a caption accompanying a series of photos, in which Gomez is seen beaming from ear to ear. Also included are snaps of the couple of embracing and a close-up of the engagement ring.
“Hey wait…that’s my wife” Blanco commented, jumping the gun somewhat. Among those who have offered their congratulations on social media are Taylor Swift (who says she’ll be the flower girl), Lily Collins, Cardi B, Gwyneth Paltrow and…chef Gordon Ramsey.
Gomez, who has previously dated Nick Jonas, Justin Bieber and the Weeknd (the rapper), first got together with Blanco in June 2023. In November, the “Emilia Pérez” star hailed her then boyfriend’s inclusion in People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive issue,” a feeling not shared by everyone.
Selena Gomez’s staggering net worth compared to Benny Blanco
As a result of her hugely successful career as an actress, singer and businesswoman, Gomez has amassed a net worth of approximately $1 billion, according to Celebrity Net Worth. The website notes that the “vast majority” of her fortune comes from Rare Beauty, a makeup company she founded in 2020.
Blanco, meanwhile, has number a host of singles as lead artist, collaborating with huge stars such as Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Calvin Harris, Bieber and Gomez herself.
However, the 36-year-old is most referred to as “record producer” and “songwriter,” which is where many would argue he has done his best work. Blanco has co-produced and co-written music for many of the world’s top artists, including Katy Perry, Britney Spears, Rihanna, Christina Aguilera, Ed Sheeran and Kanye West.
Blanco’s work in the music industry, as well as his ventures in the world of acting and real estate, have led to him amassing a net worth of $50 million, again per Celebrity Net Worth.
