Selena Gomez didn’t need to go runnin’ through the jungle to get to you, Benny Blanco.
Because as it turns out, the “Wolves” singer and the music producer—who’ve collaborated on hits like “Single Soon” and “I Can’t Get Enough”—were actually first introduced more than a decade before they started dating.
“We both met each other like almost 16, 17 years ago,” Benny revealed in an April interview with SiriusXM Hits 1. “Obviously, we made a bunch of songs together. But before we had made any music together, I was one of her big meetings—like right around when she was just leaving Disney to make her own music. Neither one of us remembered the meeting, but her mom remembered it.”
And even after they reconnected years later, Benny didn’t expect their relationship to shift from platonic to romantic.
“It was so crazy,” he said a month later on The Howard Stern Show. “When we went out on our first date, I didn’t even know it was a date.”
