Golden Globes 2025: Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco share adorable moment as Nikki Glaser jokes about their engagement

Newly engaged Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco stole the show at the 2025 Golden Globes. The night’s two-time nominee stepped out with her music producer fiancé for the ceremony, and host Nikki Glaser didn’t forget to mention the adorable couple.

During her monologue, Glaser praised the Calm Down singer for her nominations – one for best actress for her role in Only Murders in the Building and another for best supporting actress in Emilia Pérez – and roasted Blanco for being his plus-one for the night.

Glaser began by congratulating Gomez and mocking Blanco, saying he was there because of the “genius who granted him that wish.” Lucky guy! » But the music producer took the punchline sportingly and planted a kiss on his fiancée’s shoulder, graciously accepting the joke.

Even though Gomez didn’t win an award, she jumped with excitement when her Emilia Pérez co-star Zoe Saldaña took home the award. In December, the singer-actress shared an Instagram Story reacting to her and Saldaña’s nominations.

“I don’t even know what to write. I’m so proud of @zoesaldana, and I’m so grateful and honored by @goldenglobes,” she wrote in the video.

In the ambitious musical drama, the former Disney star played Jessi, the devoted wife of Mexican drug lord Juan “Manitas” Del Monte (Karla Sofía Gascón), who secretly identified as a woman.

Meanwhile, Saldaña played Rita, the savvy lawyer who helped Monte fake her death and undergo gender affirmation surgery to become Emilia Pérez. The actress and Gomez were nominated in the Supporting Actress category alongside Ariana Grande for Wicked, Felicity Jones for The Brutalist, Margaret Qualley for The Substance and Isabella Rossellini for Conclave.

The Same Old Love hitmaker also reacted to her nomination for Best Performance by an Actress in a Musical or Comedy Television Series for Hulu’s hit series Only Murders in the Building. She shared a photo from filming the show and wrote that she was “so proud” of her TV “family.”

In a previous interview with People magazine, Gomez said she was “overwhelmed” by all the amazing things happening in her career. “It’s such a wonderful gift,” she added.
