Selena Gomez told viewers on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that longtime friend and colleague Steve Martin will serve as a ring-bearer at her upcoming wedding to producer and musician Benny Blanco.
Gomez made the revelation during an appearance with her Only Murders in the Building co-stars, Martin and Martin Short, after taping the show in New York City. The 33-year-old singer and actor described the wedding as going well and said she felt "very lucky," adding, "It’s wonderful. I’m very lucky. It’s going well and I’m so excited."
During the interview, Martin, 75, quipped, "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 confirmed both Martin and Short were invited to the wedding and said she had asked Martin to be part of the wedding party in the ring-bearer role.
Details about the ceremony have been largely private, but reports and comments from other celebrities have begun to surface. Paris Hilton’s attendance was confirmed by her sister Nicky Hilton during an interview on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards. Reports have circulated that the couple may hold the ceremony in Montecito, California, later this month, but the location and timing have not been formally announced by Gomez or Blanco.
Gomez and Blanco first fueled public interest in their relationship when they attended a basketball game together in January. The pair confirmed their engagement in December, and in March released a joint album, I Said I Love You First, with songs that reflect their partnership.
Gomez’s Tonight Show appearance comes as she continues to promote her work in music and television. She has repeatedly guarded many personal details about the wedding, though she has allowed occasional glimpses into planning and guest lists. Fans and media outlets have speculated about other possible attendees, with questions raised about whether close friend Taylor Swift and Swift’s reported fiance, Travis Kelce, will be present; those potential invitations have not been confirmed.
Representatives for Gomez and Blanco did not immediately respond to requests for further comment. The revelation about Martin’s role provides the clearest public detail yet about the wedding party and underscores the blend of Gomez’s professional and personal circles as she prepares to wed.
