Selena Gomez Reveals Her Surprising Dream Wedding Dessert for Upcoming Ceremony

Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. 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?''

Justin and Hailey Bieber Share a Kiss During PDA-Filled Appearance at Singer's 'Swag' Album Listening Party

The beauty mogul supported her musician beau at a bash celebrating his latest album and newly launched apparel line on July 24 Justin and Hailey Bieber are packing on the PDA! The couple shared a passionate kiss at a listening party for the singer's new album, Swag, in West Hollywood, Calif., on Thursday, July 24. Spotify hosted the event at Bird Street Club in collaboration with Justin's new apparel brand, Skylrk. On Saturday, July 26, the 'Daisies' singer, 31, shared a carousel of photos from the bash celebrating the surprise record (which was released on July 11 and marked his first studio album in four years) on Instagram. He kicked off the party photo dump with a snap of himself and Hailey, 28, locking lips. In the shot, the Grammy-winning musician and beauty mogul — who tied the knot in September 2018 — wrapped their arms around each other as they shared a kiss. In another photo, Justin took a break from hitting golf balls at the event to lean over and give his wife a peck on the lips. The pair remained close in other snaps from the event, as well, with Justin wrapping his arms around Hailey as they posed together for a group photo. And in a different carousel of photos, which Justin shared on Friday, the singer once again cozied up to his wife, wrapping his arms around her in what appeared to be candid shots. When he wasn't hanging with Hailey at the listening party, Justin was dancing and singing along to Swag with friends, which he documented on Instagram with more photos and videos from the bash. Among the attendees were Madison Beer and former Disney Channel star Kyle Massey. After the festivities concluded, the couple — who are parents to son Jack Blues Bieber, who turns 1 in August — were spotted leaving Bird Street Club hand-in-hand. In photos taken outside of the West Hollywood venue, Hailey held Justin's hand, her arm wrapped under his, as they left the party. The couple's PDA-filled appearance comes shortly after Hailey opened up about navigating the pair's "crazy life" amid speculation about their marriage, particularly after giving birth to son Jack Blues last year. In a Vogue Italia interview published Wednesday, the Rhode founder called the period following the little one's birth "the most delicate period I've ever been through in my life." "And having to do all this while constantly reading falsehoods on the internet like 'They're getting divorced' or 'They're no longer happy together' is something that really drives you crazy,' she told the outlet. 'I'm not even sure I can explain it. It's a crazy life.'

A source recently opened up to PEOPLE about the new parents' life following the release of Swag, which Justin made on his own terms after making big career changes (including parting ways with his former manager, Scooter Braun). "Hailey was by Justin's side for the whole creation of the album," the source said. "Everyone knows Justin as a star and a performer. They now get to know the artist that Hailey has known all these years." Read the original article on People

Here's What's Happening With AI Models Inside The Newest Issue Of Vogue

Earlier this week, TikTok user @lala4an posted a video with an observation about the August issue of Vogue. Inside, there was an ad for Guess's chevron dress, modeled by an otherwise unassuming (but, of course, gorgeous) blonde woman with a slim, hourglass figure. However, a look at the small print revealed something surprising: "Produced by Seraphinne Vallora on AI." Related: The revelation that AI models were inside the pages of Vogue quickly went viral, with the video amassing over 2 million views in three days. As the TikTok found its way across other platforms, much of the response was, in a word, negative. So, who is Seraphinne Vallora? Go on their Instagram, which has over 220k followers, and you'll see hundreds of smooth-skinned women with high cheekbones and plump lips (the caveat being that all of these images are AI-generated). In their own words, courtesy of their bio, "We design editorial level AI-driven marketing campaigns and cinematic videos. As seen in Elle, Grazia, Vogue, WSJ, FT, Harper's Bazaar." The real women behind the business, Valentina Gonzalez and Andreea Petrescu, told me that they started making AI models because they were trying to create a jewelry brand and couldn't afford the real thing. Andreea recalled, "With us [being] designers and architects, we decided to use our skills to try to create our own models. We started to put our own jewelry that we were trying to sell into these AI models and campaigns. Essentially, other people saw this, it was a success, and they asked if we could do the same for them." As they saw it, there was a "huge gap in the market" for a "design-led" AI image company. Andreea said, "We started going viral, because nobody was doing this at the time, and that's how we grew our account. We grew the account organically." Related: The company has since been going for two years, comprising now of five people. Their page caught the attention of Paul Marciano, the co-founder of Guess, who sent them a DM. As Andreea put it, "Paul is a very fearless man. He's a trendsetter. So he decided, 'I like this, I want it.' Eventually, I really believe many other companies will go for this." Valentina said that they're the "first AI-driven campaign to be published worldwide," in 20 storefronts across Europe and an additional 30 magazines. I asked them why a brand like Guess, which has a presumably ample budget, would opt for AI. "When Paul hired us, he told us very clearly, 'I'm not looking to replace our models.' He wants to supplement, because they have so many product campaigns that can take a very, very long time to plan, so he can only do a few campaigns every year," she recalled. "Meanwhile, with AI, it could be faster. You don't need to arrange any traveling, you don't need permits. You don't need any of these to create beautiful images." Related: They both insist that their use of AI, rather than a layman's, is a form of art. Consider a comparison Valentina made: "It's no different to a random person taking a camera, that doesn't make them a photographer." Neither are they fans of the idea that the models, based on text inputs and "proprietary techniques," are easy to make. They deny that images of real people are used to make composites: "It's really not copying anyone's features. It's pretty much like imagination." Generally speaking, they'll provide mood boards to clients, sometimes working with photographers and in-person models to test poses and angles. Stylists will select the clothing and accessories. They showed me an example deck for a luxury brand, which said, "Together, we'll collaborate to bring your model to life. We begin by selecting the ideal body type, eye color, hair style, height, and other defining features that best represent your brand's identity." This is an example of what they'd send to a client — Saint Laurent does not appear to be a current client of theirs. "We invested so much in our technology, because we wanted it to look like a photo. What you see in Guess is amazing, but what we do now is even better," Andreea continued. This presents a potential issue: What if people don't know that the woman they're looking at is AI? She replied, "I do feel like if they don't realize it's digitally made, I don't feel like there's blame to be placed on us, because we do disclose it, the brands we work with do disclose it." Andreea notes that the Guess ads do have disclosures, but she doesn't think there will necessarily be a requirement to do so in the future. As she put it, "People are not familiar with it and people are scared of change. But once this becomes the new norm, I think whether companies decide to add it or not, it's not too relevant. The impact of it, whether you do it in AI or in a normal medium, will be the same if you get the same results." Related: Do they worry that the use of AI models will further an already unrealistic beauty standard? "We are not creating a new standard. The standard has always been there," Valentina responded. Andreea affirmed, "We're pretty much in line with the same standard that is set in the rest of the magazine. If I look at a magazine, I'm gonna be bombarded with 10 different supermodels. Because one is AI, it doesn't change anything." Initially, the women say that they featured more diverse body types and ethnicities on their Instagram pages — even men. But it was the "fantasy type" of woman that got them the most attention. Valentina said, "It's not even us, it's the public. If they loved the diversity, we would have flooded our Instagram with diversity." They can't tell me who they're currently speaking with, citing NDAs. However, there is another service that Seraphinne Vallora offers: AI twins of real-life models. As Valentina described, "For example, if you're a supermodel or a model, you might want to have a twin of you so you can take two jobs at the same time. If you're in China and Miami, either way, you can get an AI avatar that is identical to you. We literally get everything exactly the way you look. I'm talking details, pores, facial hair, everything, we get it to exact accuracy." This is a real image of Bella Hadid. If supermodels do wind up using their AI avatars, will they have to disclose it? Valentina replied, "It's their choice. We encourage them to." BuzzFeed has reached out to Guess for comment.
