Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco Heat Things Up with “Sunset Blvd” Music Video — A Steamy Ode to Their First Date

March 14, 2025 — Today, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco unveiled their latest collaboration, the sultry new single “Sunset Blvd,” accompanied by a cheeky and visually captivating music video that’s already setting the internet ablaze. Released on March 14, 2025, the track is a deeply personal milestone for the engaged couple, serving as a romantic tribute to their first date on the iconic Los Angeles street of the same name. With its suggestive lyrics, retro-inspired visuals, and undeniable chemistry, “Sunset Blvd” is poised to be a standout moment in their upcoming joint album, I Said I Love You First, dropping March 21.

The song’s origins are as heartfelt as they are steamy. Earlier this week, Gomez took to Instagram to announce the single, sharing a cozy black-and-white selfie with Blanco—captioned as their “first official photo together”—and revealing its inspiration. “Our first date was on Sunset Blvd, and it’s also the title of our next song together,” she wrote, sparking excitement among fans eager to see how their real-life romance would translate into music. Blanco, ever the doting fiancé, chimed in with a playful comment: “Ur my cherry pie,” hinting at the lighthearted yet passionate vibe of the project.

The “Sunset Blvd” music video, which premiered tonight at 9 PM PT, delivers on that promise and then some. Directed with a retro flair, the video opens with dreamy shots of Sunset Boulevard bathed in golden light, before cutting to Gomez in a sultry, lingerie-clad scene gazing out a rain-streaked window. The aesthetic nods to classic Hollywood romance, but with a modern, cheeky twist that’s pure Gomez-and-Blanco. Throughout the video, Gomez daydreams about Blanco, who makes playful cameos—including a surreal moment as a miniature version of himself, only to be dramatically “eaten” by Gomez in a single bite at the clip’s end. It’s a bold, whimsical touch that perfectly balances the song’s seductive tone with their signature playfulness.

Lyrically, “Sunset Blvd” doesn’t shy away from heat. The chorus features Gomez crooning, “With open arms / holding you naked / middle of Sunset Boulevard,” while the bridge ramps up the flirtation: “I just wanna touch it, touch it / try your hardest not to bust it / gimme gimme how I love your big, big heart.” Delivered with her breathy vocals, the lines are equal parts romantic and risqué, offering a glimpse into the couple’s undeniable chemistry. Blanco’s production shines through, layering the track with a sultry beat that complements Gomez’s emotive delivery, making it an instant earworm.

This release marks the third single from I Said I Love You First, following “Scared of Loving You” (co-written and produced by Finneas) and “Call Me When You Break Up” (featuring Gracie Abrams). The album, set to be Gomez’s first since 2020’s chart-topping Rare, promises to blend her pop prowess with Blanco’s production genius, all while weaving in the threads of their love story. The couple’s engagement, announced in December 2024, adds an extra layer of anticipation—fans are eager to hear how their journey from collaborators to fiancés shapes the music.

Their Sunset Boulevard connection isn’t just lyrical fodder, either. Earlier this week, Gomez and Blanco revisited Jitlada Thai Restaurant—the site of their first date—where they cooked up fried shrimp with curry alongside the restaurant’s owner, Sarin “Jazz” Sing. Sharing the moment on Instagram, they showcased the dish that sparked their romance, further cementing “Sunset Blvd” as a love letter to that pivotal night. It’s a sweet, nostalgic gesture that contrasts beautifully with the video’s sultry edge.

For Gomez, 32, and Blanco, 37, this project is a celebration of their bond, forged after they began dating in June 2023. Blanco, a celebrated producer known for working with artists like Justin Bieber, Rihanna, and Halsey, has long been a creative partner to Gomez—they previously collaborated on her 2019 hit “I Can’t Get Enough.” Now, as partners in life and art, they’re bringing a fresh dynamic to the pop landscape. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Gomez reflected on their relationship, saying, “This is the safest I’ve ever felt in one, and I see a future with this person.” “Sunset Blvd” feels like a musical manifestation of that security—and a whole lot of fun, too.

As of 3:39 AM PDT on March 14, the video is already racking up views and reactions across social platforms. Fans on X are buzzing, with some drawing comparisons to Gomez’s Revival era for its mature, confident vibe, while others are simply swooning over the couple’s chemistry. With I Said I Love You First just a week away, “Sunset Blvd” sets the stage for what’s shaping up to be a deeply personal, genre-blending album—and a testament to love’s power to inspire art.

Whether you’re a Selenator, a Blanco stan, or just a sucker for a good love story, “Sunset Blvd” is a must-watch. Check out the video now, and mark your calendars for March 21—Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are just getting started.
