Selena Gomez Reveals Her Surprising Dream Wedding Dessert for Upcoming Ceremony
THE RUNDOWN
Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco got engaged in December 2024, but not yet revealed their wedding plan. Fans have been wanting to know more details about the upcoming event, and the Only Murder in the Building star finally shared some this week.
On her Rare Beauty brand's TikTok account, Gomez shared some of her thoughts on the reception, saying she had some ideas for the dessert. Traditionally, a big wedding cake is expected, but Gomez has other dreams.
'My preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy,' she shared. 'My Nana's biscuits and gravy. That sounds like dessert to me.'
She also explained, 'Whenever that day comes, I do know I don't want a big cake. I think I'd want a mini one, for just us, that we can freeze.'
Gomez previously discussed the first dance between the bride and groom on an episode of Table Manners with Jessie and Lennie Ware, saying she was probably going to skip it.
'I don't think we're looking at having one of those 'cause they're a little—I feel embarrassed,' she said. But she was hoping to be escorted down the aisle by her grandfather.
'He never got a chance to walk my mom down the aisle,' she explained. 'I wanted to give [my grandfather] the opportunity to have that.'
In July, Blanco discussed how planning is going on Jake Shane's podcast, Therapuss. The music producer said that they have both been so busy since the release of their album, I Said I Love You First.
'That's why we both need to chill,' Blanco explained. 'We've both been working so much. We got engaged, and then we were filming music videos for our album. Then it's holidays, then right after the holidays, we had to start all the promo for our stuff, do that. Then she left to film her show Only Murders [in the Building] and then I met her, then we hung out for a week, and then right after that, it's promo. And then I'm writing another book, so then I had to write a book, and then she came back for one day here. And then it was my birthday, and you know.'
He continued, 'We're both working on so many things that we hadn't even had time to get into it, but we're so excited. I think this summer we're going to sit down and be like, 'Okay, what are we doing, hun?''

Is 'The Gilded Age' Season 3 ending this week? See episode schedule
Spoiler alert: This story includes details from episodes of Season 3 of "The Gilded Age." In the aftermath of the wedding of the century between Gladys Russell (Taissa Farmiga) and the Duke of Buckingham (Ben Lamb), cracks are beginning to appear in the Russell household with George Russell (Morgan Spector) and his wife, Bertha (Carrie Coon), at dagger's end. Bertha is also livid when she finds out Larry Russell has proposed to Marian Brook (Louisa Jacobson), who she deems unworthy of trophy wife status. While the Russells, who stood "poised to take their place at the head of society," according to the season synopsis, are struggling with their own issues, including when a familiar face no one was expecting made a comeback. Maud Beaton, the woman who conned Oscar (Blake Ritson) out of his entire family fortune, was spotted at The Haymarket by Larry. She is now going by the name Dolly Trent. From "Downton Abbey" creator Julian Fellowes, "The Gilded Age" follows high society and the battle between "old money" and "new money" in 1800s New York. "Bertha sets her sights on a prize that would elevate the family to unimaginable heights while George risks everything on a gambit that could revolutionize the railroad industry — if it doesn't ruin him first," the synopsis says, adding that "across the street, the Brook household is thrown into chaos as Agnes refuses to accept Ada's new position as lady of the house." "As all of New York hastens toward the future, their ambition may come at the cost of what they truly hold dear," it concludes. The lavish period drama returned for its third season on June 22 to record-high viewership. About 2.7 million U.S. viewers tuned in across platforms within the first three days of the season premiere, HBO said.

Selena Gomez Reveals the Dessert She Doesn't Want at Her Wedding to Benny Blanco — Plus the Surprising Food She Does
"Who Says" biscuits and gravy aren't the perfect wedding dessert? Selena Gomez hinted at details about her forthcoming nuptials to fiancé Benny Blanco in a new interview clip shared by her brand Rare Beauty on Friday, July 25. Kicking things off with some menu brainstorming for when she and her music producer and cookbook author beau tie the knot — "Whenever that day comes" — Gomez, 33, said, 'I do know I don't want a big cake.' Instead, she explained, she wants a smaller and more intimate dessert, reserved for herself and Blanco, 37. Said Gomez: 'I think I'd want a mini one for just us that we can freeze.' Rather than a sweet treat, Gomez explained that her 'preferred dessert would be biscuits and gravy.' But not just anyone's recipe: 'My Nana's biscuits and gravy,' she said. 'That sounds like dessert to me.' Despite Gomez's recent dessert dishing, she and Blanco — who got engaged in December 2024 — have 'not yet' begun planning their wedding, the music producer previously revealed. During the July 10 episode of the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast, Blanco explained that the couple hasn't begun wedding planning because they 'both need to chill" and have 'both been working so much.' 'We got engaged and then we were filming music videos for our album, then it's holidays, then right after the holidays we had to start all the promo for our stuff, do that,' the producer said. 'Then she left to film her show Only Murders [in the Building] and then I met her, then we hung out for a week, and then right after that it's promo, and then I'm writing another book.' The couple has been 'working on so many things that we hadn't even had time to get into it,' Blanco later added. "But we're so excited.' In the same Therapuss episode, the Open Wide author did, however, tease that he and Gomez may 'sit down' this summer 'and be like, 'Okay, what are we doing.' ' Plus, speaking about the type of wedding the couple will have, he said, 'I think it will be, like, chill." Blanco also shared a glimpse into his relationship with Gomez, telling host Jake Shane that while he doesn't usually like to lay in bed, 'with Selena, I can do it all day.' The singer, he added, 'makes me want to hang out and cuddle — just watch things, just eat food and have piles of food around us and have the best time ever.'

The pair has been open about how food plays a key role in their relationship, with Blanco previously telling PEOPLE that he goes 'all out' for dates with the Disney Channel alum. 'For Valentine's Day, I got her Taco Bell, I made her movie-theater nachos, I found her favorite pickles from Texas and I deep-fried them for her. Then [I had] all her candies and Hot Cheetos,' Blanco recalled in PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive issue. (The following year, he treated her to a bathtub filled with queso, complete with chips for dipping.) Similarly, Blanco also advises anyone seeking romance to learn how to cook for their partners — even if it isn't a strong suit. 'Even if you're terrible at cooking, [your partner will] like it because you did it,' the cookbook author told PEOPLE. 'Ask your partner what they want to eat. Don't try to cook them what you want to eat. If you don't know how to cook it — learn it.' Read the original article on People
