Selena Gomez BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Selena Gomez has had a spectacular August, blending deeply personal milestones and headline-grabbing business moves with a touch of signature candor. On August 16 she revealed a gallery of intimate summer photos on Instagram, featuring cozy dinners outside with her fiancé Benny Blanco and friends, scenes at home in a pale pink slip dress, and snapshots celebrating her younger sister Gracie’s birthday bash, complete with balloons and glitter. Benny Blanco’s comment on her post, wait … I’m gonna marry u, sent fans into a frenzy, while Gomez herself doubled down on wedding excitement during a recent appearance on the Therapuss with Jake Shane podcast. She explained that although the wedding is not imminent, they’re both completely sure about their future together but juggling surging career demands before diving into the ceremony itself. Gomez’s engagement to Blanco, which began in December last year, has become one of Hollywood’s favorite romantic stories. According to Hola, their wedding is being planned for September in Montecito, California and is expected to feature A-listers such as Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce, and Ed Sheeran. However, Selena told podcast listeners they’re taking it slow and handling personal projects first, and Blanco jokingly mentioned to Daily Mail and on Australia’s Today Show that even Ed Sheeran is on the guest list.

Beyond her love life, Gomez is riding a major business wave. Rare Beauty, her makeup line launched in 2020, remains a cultural phenomenon. Impact Wealth reported her stake could be worth $600 million to $1 billion and Rare is now an estimated $2 billion brand, topping Gen Z’s beauty rankings and raising $13 million for mental health through the Rare Impact Fund. Rare Beauty’s new perfume officially launched August 7, with social media buzzing about the marketing strategy and Gomez’s direct involvement. In a Women’s Wear Daily interview, Gomez stressed her commitment to the brand’s authenticity and community and brushed off rumors of a looming sale or IPO, saying her focus remains on creativity and connection.

Professionally, she wrapped filming season five of Only Murders in the Building in June, with co-star Logan Lerman joining for the upcoming episodes, and made a playful cameo in the Wizards Beyond Waverly Place reboot, delighting longtime fans. Instagram and TikTok posts continue to show snippets of playful reunions with castmates and cozy shots with Blanco. On the family front, Selena has spoken about her desire for children, telling Jay Shetty’s podcast she’s excited for motherhood despite past health concerns and is open to exploring alternative routes to become a mom. As summer closes, Selena Gomez stands at the intersection of personal joy, creative power, and cultural influence—a rare feat even for Hollywood royalty.
