Benny Blanco is ready to cook for Selena Gomez — no matter where!
Blanco, 36, opened up during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show on Tuesday, May 14, about how much he prepares for dates with his girlfriend, 31.
Ahead of their one-year anniversary, which the music producer says is around Gomez’s birthday on July 22, Blanco revealed details of his Valentine’s Day plan, which included renting a movie theater so they could be alone. “I want to do something that she likes,” Blanco told Stern, 70, recalling the romantic day. “She likes movies, so I rented a movie theater. And she likes a comfy couch, so I took out the seats and we put a big couch in front.”
“I asked myself, ‘What is her favorite food?’ ” he continued. “I talked to her grandmother, I talked to her mom, her best friend and this is what I came up with.”
