Selena Gomez made a subtle reference to her former relationships in her and fiancé Benny Blanco’s new song “Scared of Loving You.”
“If I broke your heart / Would you take me back? / If I broke my arm / Would you sign my cast?” Gomez, 32, sang in the first verse of the track that dropped on Thursday, February 13. “When I was young / I would love too fast / Hope I don’t repeat my past.”
Before finding love with Blanco, Gomez was romantically linked to several A-listers over the years. The singer dated Nick Jonas when they were both Disney Channel stars. She also had a short-lived romance with The Weeknd. Gomez was famously in an on-and-off relationship with Justin Bieber from 2011 to 2018. The pair called it quits for good months before Bieber wed wife Hailey Bieber.
While Gomez admitted on her new song that she was nervous about making the same mistakes in her new romance, she shared that this time something felt different.
Charles Wenzelberg/NY Post/MEGA Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are engaged to be married, but the couple started out as collaborators. Blanco coproduced two songs on Gomez’s 2015 album, Revival: “Kill Em With Kindness” and “Same Old Love.” The pair quickly became friends, and at one point, Gomez even asked Blanco whether he had anyone he […]
“Cause I’m not scared of loving you / I’m just scared of losing you,” Gomez sang on the ballad’s chorus. “I’m not scared of anyone / Or dying young / Or if you’re gonna find somebody new / Because how could they love you as much as I do.”
Gomez announced that she and Blanco, 36, were releasing an album together.
“I always trick you guys 🥰 my NEW album I Said I Love You First with my best friend @itsbennyblanco, is out on 3/21 🖤,” she wrote via Instagram alongside the album’s artwork that featured the couple. “Our first song, ‘Scared of Loving You’ is out now on all streaming platforms. Merchandise and signed products for the album are available for pre-order now. We can’t wait to share this special project with you soon!”
The post included a series of snaps of Gomez and Blanco. One photo — which also serves as the cover art for “Scared of Loving You” — featured a glimpse from a keyhole peeping in on the pair as they sat on a bed together. An additional snap included another angle from the bed scene. Gomez’s head is turned toward the camera as she remains in a tabletop position. Blanco, for his part, is staring lovingly at his fiancée.
Blanco and Gomez confirmed they were dating in December 2023 after being friends for years. Before their relationship turned romantic, the pair collaborated in the studio on several hit songs including “Same Old Love,” “Kill Em With Kindness” and more.

The record producer, 36, took to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday, December 18, to relive his proposal to actress and singer Selena Gomez. Resharing Gomez’s December 11 Instagram post announcing their engagement, he wrote, “Still can’t believe it!” Gomez, 32, shared news of her […]
One year after they went public with their romance, the couple got engaged.
“Forever begins now,” Gomez captioned a December 2024 Instagram post, that showed off her engagement ring. Blanco celebrated the milestone moment, writing in the comments section, “Hey wait… that’s my wife.”
Last month, Blanco and Gomez hinted they were working on a project together. When asked by a fan to “make some new songs for our queen” on social media, the record producer created a TikTok that featured Gomez adjusting a microphone as she sat on a couch. In the video, she smiled as Blanco approached and playfully said, “Hi.”
