Is Justin Bieber holding a grudge against Benny Blanco? It looks like the pop superstar isn’t thrilled about how their bromance fizzled out. The pair go way back, having collaborated in iconic tracks like “Eenie Meenie,” “Love Yourself,” and “Lonely.” But according to insiders, their once-tight bond hit the brakes when Benny started dating Selena Gomez. In Touch Weekly spilled the beans, saying that the singer felt “offended” when Benny distanced himself.
when we first wrote “lonely” the world was a very different place… soon after it took on a whole new meaning i never thought it would… the first time i worked with justin bieber was in 2009… he was so young… so talented… the hair… i mean the FUCKING HAIR!!!! pic.twitter.com/tf3m4oJApB

The timing for this rumor couldn’t be more awkward: we all know Selena Gomez and Justin Bieber have a history—an on-and-off relationship that extended for 8 years, and chart-topping hits inspired by their rollercoaster romance. So, when Benny and Selena got together, the Bieber-Blanco bromance seemed to hit an iceberg.

And while some are busy thinking about this “estranged relationship” between the producer and the pop icon, things are not really hinting at any drama for the couples. Justin Bieber has been happily married to Hailey Bieber since 2018, and they’ve built a cozy life as parents after welcoming their son Jack in 2023. Similarly, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are planning their happily-ever-after, with a ring and a wedding.
