The pop sensation Selena Gomez and the celebrated producer Benny Blanco started teasing new music. Blanco took to TikTok on January 17, 2025, and shared a snippet that is already going viral online.
A three-second clip that speaks volumes. In the video, he opens a door to reveal Selena Gomez, casually sitting on a couch with a microphone poised in front of her. The interaction was simple but electrifying.
“Hi,” Blanco greeted. Selena mirrored his response with a smile that lit up the screen.
Blanco’s caption,
“replying to @Esme Hermes in case TikTok doesn’t exist next week,”
only added to the intrigue.
The fans didn’t waste any time, and the comments went flooding in with excitement and speculation: messages like “AHHHHHH THIS BETTER BE TRUE” and “the greatest gift” showed the overwhelming anticipation for what might be the next big hit from this power duo.
Gomez and Blanco have been known to conjure magic together. Their past works include hits like Kill Em with Kindness and Same Old Love from Gomez’s critically acclaimed 2015 album Revival. They also worked together on the bilingual hit I Can’t Get Enough in 2019. These tracks remain memorable for fans, and many hope their upcoming project will be just as emotionally deep and filled with addictive beats.
The teaser is not only for the nostalgia of many, but it also announces a new phase for both the artists. Noted for lyrical and poignant delivery, not to mention an instant connect with audiences, Gomez had said in earlier interviews that the upcoming singles dealt with empowerment and honesty. Blanco is a skilled producer, while Gomez possesses a unique vocal and can weave a relatable storyline into songs; a dream come true collaboration.
Adding to the buzz is Gomez and Blanco’s personal connection. The couple confirmed their relationship in December 2023, after keeping it private for months. Since then, their partnership has been a blend of romance and creative synergy. In December 2024, they announced their engagement, sharing their happiness with fans during public appearances, including a memorable moment at the 2025 Golden Globes.
Their strong bond is depicted in their way of working. Gomez has shared that Blanco is a great communicator and supportive partner. Fans believe this dynamic adds an added layer to the music, taking personal experiences and making them universally relatable.
Meanwhile, not only professional glories but also headlines with news about their charitable acts have popped up regarding Gomez and Blanco. Most recently, they volunteered to help wildfire recovery in Los Angeles with food distribution to first responders and creating awareness about what the community needs.
With TikTok for a stage, the duo has once again set fans abuzz around the world. Teasers like this have left everyone guessing: is this going to be a single? An album? Or even a new direction in their artistry? And it was all very well under wraps, but one thing was for sure: Gomez and Blanco are ready to give something unforgettable.
