And after many small “teasers”, on February 13, the Ice Cream singer suddenly announced a set of intimate photos with her new boyfriend on Instagram with the caption “My bes fwend” ( My best friend), quickly attracted 5.6 million likes, a series of congratulatory comments from stars and a response from boyfriend Benny: “You are my best friend”. But, the story doesn’t stop there. Selena Gomez suddenly locked the comment section, leaving the right to speak only to famous stars or relatives. It’s worth mentioning that before, she had never blocked comments on posts “teasing” her relationship with her boyfriend.

Having just posted a set of romantic photos with her new boyfriend, Selena Gomez has received more than 5 million likes on Instagram. But she had to lock the comments section so only stars and relatives could have access. Immediately after publishing the post, Benny Blanco also left a sweet message affirming “sovereignty”: “You are my best friend”

The reason for Selena Gomez’s move is said to stem from the public’s harsh attitude towards Benny Blanco’s appearance and the “bad hand” photo in the public post. Since confirming their relationship, this talented couple has not received support from the audience because of their different looks. Many viewers believe that Selena Gomez has now lost all hope in handsome guys in showbiz, so she turned to producer Benny Blanco. However, Selena herself has always affirmed that Benny is her destiny, not forgetting to tease her ex-lovers when praising her boyfriend to the skies: “He’s better than everyone I’ve ever dated” “.

And yet, in a recent emotional photo post, the image of Benny Blanco placing his hands on Selena Gomez’s fiery breasts also became the center of controversy. Many viewers said that this couple “showed love” too much. The act of kissing or hugging is acceptable, but sensitive gestures like the above should not be shown off on social networks. Of course, in addition to mixed opinions, there are still many netizens who support the two because of their sincere feelings and attachment from close friends to lovers.

This “damaged hand” photo is said to be one of the sources of controversy, causing Selena Gomez to block comments on the post.

We love him so much, we really do. And he’s a good cook, too. Brooklyn and Benny love being in the kitchen cooking, while Selena and I sit there saying, “Wow.” , we are the winners'”.
