Music producer **Benny Blanco** and global superstar **Selena Gomez** have finally tied the knot, and their wedding photos have sent social media into a frenzy. Blanco shared a series of intimate snapshots from the ceremony on Instagram this week, giving fans a rare inside look at their big day. But as Elle Magazine noted, while the images showcased sweet embraces and candid moments, the comment sections quickly lit up with fans all fixated on one surprising detail.
The wedding, held in a private garden setting in California, was described by insiders as “deeply personal and stripped-down,” far from the typical Hollywood spectacle. Vogue reported that Gomez stunned in a minimalist off-the-shoulder gown, while Blanco kept things relaxed in a cream suit with no tie. Blanco’s Instagram carousel, which featured the couple laughing under string lights and sharing their first dance, has already garnered millions of likes — but also sparked a wave of fan speculation.

So what exactly are fans pointing out? The overwhelming reaction online centered not on Gomez’s gown or the celebrity guest list, but on **Blanco’s appearance**. Comment after comment noted the same thing: his scruffy, unpolished look next to Selena’s classic elegance. Cosmopolitan highlighted the viral posts that joked about Blanco’s messy hair and casual vibe, with some fans saying he looked like he “rolled straight out of bed into the wedding.”
Others, however, defended Blanco, insisting that his authenticity and refusal to conform to Hollywood polish was exactly why Gomez fell in love with him. As Harper’s Bazaar pointed out, many praised the contrast between Selena’s refined style and Benny’s laid-back charm, calling it “perfectly them.” The conversation has sparked a deeper debate online about expectations placed on men and women in public relationships.

The couple’s relationship has been under the microscope since Gomez confirmed they were dating in late 2023. At the time, fans were divided, with some embracing Blanco’s quirky personality and others skeptical of the pairing. But as their romance grew more public, Gomez frequently defended him, calling Blanco “the kindest soul I’ve ever met.” Billboard traced their timeline, showing how the couple gradually went from collaborators to life partners.
Celebrity friends also chimed in with well-wishes on Instagram. Taylor Swift, a longtime friend of Gomez, left a string of heart emojis on Blanco’s post. Meanwhile, fellow producer Finneas commented, “Couldn’t imagine a better match.” As Entertainment Tonight covered, the photos also revealed cameos from A-list attendees including Camila Cabello and Paul Rudd, both of whom were spotted dancing in the background of Blanco’s uploads.
Still, much of the online discussion circled back to the “same thing” — Benny’s relaxed vibe in contrast to Selena’s polished glow. One fan tweeted: “Selena’s giving Vogue bride and Benny’s giving Target clearance aisle. And honestly, it’s adorable.” Another wrote: “She looks like royalty and he looks like a stoner king. They balance each other perfectly.” BuzzFeed compiled some of the funniest reactions.

For Gomez, the photos seem to mark a moment of peace and triumph. After years of highly publicized breakups and health struggles, the star has found a partner she consistently describes as supportive and grounding. For Blanco, the chatter around his look only seems to reinforce his persona as someone unconcerned with appearances. As Rolling Stone observed, the real story isn’t about clothing or hair — it’s about two artists carving out a relationship on their own terms.
In the end, while fans can’t stop pointing out the contrast in style, the photos tell a deeper story: one of intimacy, joy, and authenticity. And judging by the way Gomez gazes at Blanco in every shot, it’s clear she wouldn’t have it any other way.
