The Academy Museum of Motion Pictures hosted a dazzling star-studded event on Saturday for its annual Academy Museum Gala.
A highlight of the evening was the first official red carpet appearance of newlyweds Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco, marking their debut as a married couple.
After a private wedding in Santa Barbara, California, this September, the couple impressed with their coordinated yet unique fashion statements.
Gomez showcased her timeless elegance in a glamorous black gown adorned with sparkling details, exuding vintage Hollywood allure. She paired it with a black suit jacket draped over her shoulders, bold red lipstick, and striking earrings, her hair styled in a chic updo to complete the classic look.
Benny Blanco chose a fashionable look with a shiny blue shirt, black jacket, and matching pants, subtly mirroring his wife’s color scheme.
Gomez took a moment for solo photos upon arrival before the celebrations commenced. Later, the couple posed together, all smiles and joy.
Their stunning appearance comes just weeks after their wedding on September 27, 2025, a private affair with close friends and family, reportedly including A-list guests like Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Martin Short, and Steve Martin, as reported by Page Six.
Soon after, Selena shared photos and videos capturing their enchanting wedding moments, simply captioned “9.27.25.”
