    Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco "made so many amazing memories" while recording their new album

    The 32-year-old singer and Benny, 37, recently released a collaborative album called 'I Said I Love You First', and Selena has now revealed via social media that she cherished the creative process


    The brunette beauty - who announced her engagement to Benny in December - wrote on Instagram: "benny and I made so many amazing memories throughout the process of creating our new album. I wanted to let you guys in on some of those stories and the making of these songs. I Said I Love You First - Explained: Narrated by Selena Gomez is available for digital download on my official store now! (sic)"

    Selena has also explained her ambition for the narrated version of the album via a new TikTok video.

    The singer said: "Basically, I get to tell a little story about each song on the album, so I can explain it to you guys and you can see how I view them. I'd love to know your thoughts as well and how you relate to it all."

    Benny has worked with a host of big-name artists during his career, including Britney Spears, Rihanna, Sia, Wiz Khalifa, J Balvin and Ariana Grande.

    But Benny recently claimed that making an album with Selena felt very "low stakes".

    The record producer - who began dating Selena in June 2023 - said on 'Hot Ones': "When you work with people, sometimes you butt heads.

    "Every time one of us had a discrepancy on something, the other one was like, 'Oh OK, yeah that's chill.' And we also got to make [the album] in our house, in our bedroom. It just felt low stakes."
