Selena Gomez Details Wedding Privacy, Releases New Song

Selena Gomez said she experienced significant anxiety on her wedding day to Benny Blanco in September 2025, which prompted her to personally post official photos to control privacy. On The Jennifer Hudson Show she said she wore multiple custom gowns — describing three distinct looks for a first look, the ceremony and a reception midi (other reports say she changed into four) — and used a decoy dress to deter paparazzi. Gomez banned guests from taking pictures, imposed strict confidentiality measures and personally managed the timing of which images were released to prevent leaks. She also released a new song, “In The Dark,” sharing a music‑video snippet on Instagram that was praised for its nostalgic tone and polished visuals. Overall, Gomez is balancing a tightly curated public narrative and protective privacy steps while remaining open about her anxiety and returning to music and public appearances.
