Benny Blanco confessed on Monday that his culinary prowess has the ability to turn on his girlfriend Selena Gomez.
The 36-year-old music producer — who confirmed his romance with Selena in December — took to his Instagram to document a romantic gesture for the pop star: a lavish steak dinner he had prepared for her.
‘I woke up early this morning and I was like, “I want to do something nice for my girlfriend,'” he began. ‘I was thinking, whenever I want to put a smile on her face or get laid, I just make her steak.’
The artist then demonstrated how he gets Selena in the mood.
He skillfully fried potatoes, crafted his own salad dressing, whipped some cream and grilled the steak before delivering the dish to Selena’s home.

‘It’s crazy how your partner could just be sitting there the whole time, right in front of your eyes, and you don’t even notice.
‘And then you have that Clueless moment where you’re like, “Wait, I’m in love.”‘
Benny and Selena share a longstanding connection as music collaborators.
They initially crossed paths as teenagers and later joined forces on Gomez’s sophomore album, Revival, before officially becoming romantically involved in June of last year.
Since then, the couple have been openly affectionate about their relationship, frequently sharing moments of intimacy on their Instagrams.
