She wasn't allergic to you.
She was. Yeah, I was so disgusting and repulsive.
Selena Gomez's relationship with her fiance, Benny Blanco,
had a cute but embarrassing start on the April 29th episode
of the podcast Table Manners with Jesse and Lenny Ware.
Selena and Benny told the story of how a cozy second date
led to their first kiss and the only murders in the building.
Actress breaking out in a rash.
So we were hanging on our second date
and I don't even remember what did we cook or I don't know what we did.
But towards the end of the date, we were just sitting in the living room
on the couch and we were playing We're Not Really Strangers.
And there was a thing where it said, take a selfie
with the person next to you.
And she we were already kind of like lounging.
And she got right on my chest and took a selfie.
And then right after, I just looked at her and I said,
Oh, I got to kiss this girl.
And I and I kissed her right away.
And the good kiss.
Can I say something? Very good. Can I say something?
Can I say something?
Oh, I just felt my breath.
Right, right away.
She was like her like heart started being so quickly.
She started getting a rash on her face.
And she was so nervous because she hadn't, you know, she wasn't allergic to you.
She was. Yeah, I was so disgusting and repulsive.
No, she was she was so nervous and hadn't.
I hadn't liked anyone in a very long time.
So some kisses are for fun.
And then when you feel something behind a kiss, it's completely different.
And I'd been alone for about five years,
with the exception of a few shitty dates here and there.
But never felt that way.
And I was a little embarrassed.
But he he was like, Are you OK?
And I was like, No, no, I'm fine.
I didn't want to be like, I like you.
I really like you.
So do you take Benadryl when you're alone with Benny?
No, it was it was Benadryl.
Yeah, no.
Selena and Benny first confirmed their relationship to fans in December 2023.
One year later, the 32 year old was flashing a stunning Marquise
Diamond as the couple announced their engagement.
Benny is known for being very open about his love for his fiancee.
The 37 year old also shared during the recording
that Selena has every characteristic he imagined the person
he spends the rest of his life with would have.
So I made a list when I really wanted to really find the person
that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with your therapist.
Yeah. Everything I wrote down on the list was actually her.
I don't even know what camera to look at.
Is this a camera? Yeah.
If you are ready and you have to be really ready to find the person
that you want to spend the rest of your life with,
you have to cut off everything that you know is bad for you.
You know, it's bad for you.
You know what's good for you. You know what's bad for you.
That's bad for you.
You cut it out.
You make a list of all the things you want in a partner.
It can be whatever you want. My list was very simple.
I needed someone in my age bracket.
I want someone who is kind.
I wanted someone who was caring.
I wanted someone who was compassionate.
I wanted someone who did anything.
I didn't care.
Like, just be obsessed with anything you want to do in your life.
If this person made olives, I want you to make olives every day
and come home and tell me about the olives and how passionate you are about them.
And I'm going to love it because you love it.
I just wanted someone who knew how to not only love themselves,
but love somebody else.
And I met that person.
And it didn't hurt that she's also the most beautiful person
on planet Earth inside and out.
And I would describe her as that.
The only thing I would add is that she's so shy and too humble and too bashful.
And I love her.
And I want to spend the rest of my life with her.
Hi, sweetie.
We were just at the wedding, though.
Wow, it's great.
Love it.
