Selena Gomez wants 'biscuits and gravy' at her wedding
Selena Gomez plans to eat "biscuits and gravy" at her wedding. The 33-year-old star is engaged to record producer Benny Blanco, and Selena has revealed the unusual dessert that she wants to eat on her big day. The Only Murders in the Building star said in a Rare Beauty TikTok video: "Whenever that day comes, I do know I don't want a big cake. "My preferred dessert I think would be biscuits and gravy. My nana's biscuits and gravy. That sounds like dessert to me." Despite this, Selena would still like to have a small cake as a memento of the occasion. The brunette beauty - who began dating Benny in 2023 - shared: "I think I want a mini one for just us that we can freeze." Meanwhile, Selena previously revealed that she'd love to have children one day. The actress announced her engagement to Benny in 2024, and Selena would love to raise children with him in the future. Selena - who previously revealed that she isn't able to carry her own children - said on the Jay Shetty Podcast: "I don't know what will happen, obviously, but I love children. I have an 11-year-old sister that I absolutely adore. "I love making [children] laugh; they're just so sweet. So absolutely, when that day comes, I'm so excited for it." Benny observed that Selena is the "ultimate level of shy". However, the producer noted that her demeanour changes when she's around children. The 37-year-old star - who has previously worked with Justin Bieber and The Weeknd, two of Selena's former boyfriends - said: "When she walks into a room, her main goal is to disappear into the crowd. My mom is very similar, [she] and my mom are very similar. "They'll wait and say like one thing throughout the night that winds up being the most poignant or funny thing of the night. But I'm gonna have diarrhoea of the mouth talking to everyone. "Whenever there's kids at a place it's the only time I see her do that. She immediately goes to the kids and has these conversations for hours with the kids."

Selena Gomez is planning her wedding without a big cake
Selena Gomez has some special wedding plans, and she recently shared details about her nuptials to fiance Benny Blanco. "Whenever that day comes," People magazine quoted Gomez as saying. "I do know I don't want a big cake." Rather, she shared that she prefers a smaller and more intimate dessert, reserved for herself and Blanco. Gomez added, "I think I'd want a mini one for just us that we can freeze." Gomez revealed 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, reported People. During the July 10 episode of the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast, Blanco shared that the couple have not started 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," reported People. 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." Talking about the type of wedding the couple will have, he said, "I think it will be, like, chill." The pair has been open about how food plays a key role in their relationship. "For Valentine's Day, I got her Taco Bell, I made her movie-theatre nachos, I found her favourite pickles from Texas, and I deep-fried them for her. Then I had all her candies and Hot Cheetos," said Blanco. "Even if you're terrible at cooking, your partner will like it because you did it," he shared, adding,. "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," reported People.

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
