Wait, was Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco’s engagement sponsored by Taco Bell?!

All the evidence is there


Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco just got engaged and people are convinced the proposal was a collaboration with Taco Bell.

The singer announced the happy news on Instagram, sharing a series of photos with the caption: “Forever begins now.”

It looks like they got engaged on a romantic picnic in the park, but if you look closer at the pics, something just seems off.

Was their special moment actually sponsored by the Mexican fast-food chain? Here’s all the evidence.

There’s a Taco Bell box on the picnic blanket

You probably didn’t notice it at first, but if you zoom into the picnic blanket, there’s a Taco Bell box sitting there and the logo is perfectly facing the camera. In front of the basket and bottle of champagne, there are also plates with Taco Bell food on, and they look way too staged.

The whole proposal was done in a studio

If you thought the grass and trees seemed a bit, erm, fake. You were right! Selena posted a video on her Instagram story that proves Benny didn’t get down on one knee in a park at all. It was a recording studio! You can literally see the cameras and lights. Why would they do it in a studio?!

Selena is literally obsessed with Taco Bell

If anyone would do a Taco Bell sponsorship for their engagement, it would be Selena because she’s obsessed with the chain. For Valentine’s Day, Benny told People he bought her Taco Bell, made movie-theater nachos, and found her favorite pickles – and that was her ideal date.

People think they got engaged in August

Another theory is circling social media that Selena and Benny have actually been engaged since August. Perhaps he popped the question four months ago and they’ve agreed to do a collaboration with Taco Bell to announce the happy news. Now that certainly sounds feasible.

Something is definitely off about the whole engagement, and we need to know what’s going on.
