In a recent appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, Selena Gomez disclosed that her co-star Martin Short from Only Murders in the Building will play a significant role at her upcoming wedding to Benny Blanco. Gomez stated, “Marty is going to give a speech. I told him he had to… I think Marty would give an epic speech.”

The actress humorously noted that she’s also anticipating a musical contribution from their fellow co-star, Steve Martin, suggesting he might “pull out his banjo” during the festivities.

Engagement Announcement and Romantic Moments

Gomez, 32, confirmed her romantic relationship with Blanco, 37, in late 2023 and announced their engagement in December 2024. In her Instagram declaration, she expressed excitement for their future together, stating, “It’s going to start forever,” accompanied by images that capture special moments from their relationship.

Wedding Plans Still in Development

While preparing for the wedding, Gomez confirmed that she and Blanco are still in the planning stages and have yet to finalize many details. “We don’t understand anything yet,” she noted, highlighting their laid-back approach to the festivities.

A Surprising Proposal Story

During her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Gomez shared the story of Blanco’s proposal. She recalled feeling confused when he suggested an album titled “I Said I Love You First” to commemorate their relationship. “I woke up and was very confused about what was going on and where I was heading,” she admitted, reflecting on her initial reaction to the proposal.
