Selena Gomez confirmed that comedy legend Steve Martin will serve as a ring-bearer at her upcoming wedding to producer Benny Blanco, revealing the detail during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday.
Gomez, 33, appeared on the program with her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Martin and Martin Short. During the interview, Martin joked, "We are all so excited because we love this lady and we love her fiancé Bad Bunny," prompting Gomez to correct him: "Benny Blanco!" She told Fallon the preparations were going well, saying, "It’s wonderful. I’m very lucky. It’s going well and I’m so excited."
After the taping, Gomez was photographed in New York City wearing two different looks. On air she wore a slinky strapless black dress; later she changed into a scarlet minidress with floral brocade that slipped off one shoulder. Observers noted her hair was pulled into a high bun and her lipstick matched the cocktail dress.
Gomez and Blanco, who confirmed they were engaged in December, publicly revealed their relationship in January at a basketball game and released a joint album in March titled I Said I Love You First. Gomez said she has invited both Martin and Short to the wedding, though she did not comment on other rumored guests.
Separately, Paris Hilton’s attendance at the ceremony was confirmed last weekend after her sister Nicky mentioned it during an Access Hollywood interview. The timing and location of the ceremony have not been officially announced by Gomez or Blanco; reports have circulated that the couple could marry later this month in Montecito, California, but no date has been confirmed.
Fans have monitored the gradual release of guest-list information, with social-media discussion also focusing on whether longtime Gomez friend Taylor Swift will attend, and whether Swift’s reported fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, would accompany her. Neither Swift nor Kelce has publicly addressed those questions.
Gomez has maintained a mostly private approach to planning and details surrounding the wedding. Her appearance on The Tonight Show provided one of the clearest confirmations yet of the event’s participants, underscoring the continued public interest in the personal lives of high-profile entertainers who have also drawn attention for their professional collaborations.
The Tonight Show segment offered lighter moments as co-stars traded jokes and reminiscences about their work together. Gomez’s confirmation of Martin’s role as a ring-bearer aligns with her long-running onscreen partnership with the actor and the couple’s tendency to include close friends and collaborators in high-profile moments.
Representatives for Gomez and Blanco did not immediately respond to requests for comment outside the interview.
