The singer disclosed that he hosted a prom-themed party for his partner to celebrate his birthday, aiming to make up for Selena Gomez’s missed prom experiences during her teenage years.
“Selena had never been to a prom before, so I thought I’d throw us a prom for my birthday,” the songwriter shared with Jennifer Hudson on The Jennifer Hudson Show.
Recalling his own prom experiences, Blanco told Hudson, “One time I went with a friend, like we went in a friend group, and then one time I went with a girlfriend.”
However, he admitted, “But really, honestly, my favorite prom was with my partner.”
Blanco enthusiastically recounted Selena’s reaction, “She didn’t even know, she was like, ‘What am I supposed to wear? What am I supposed to do?!’ It was like she was really going to prom.”
