Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco make the sweetest pair.
On Monday night, the singer and actress attended the Primetime Emmy Awards with boyfriend and producer Blanco, marking their first award show appearance together.
In a photo shared by photographer Jordan Strauss, Blanco, 35, is holding the “Single Soon” singer’s hand as they lean into each other in their seats. In a similar photo, Blanco looked into the camera as a smiley Gomez, 31, leaned in and pressed her forehead against him.
The couple’s outfits were also captured in a standing photo, where Gomez showed off her sequin dress with sheer panels — and Blanco threw up a peace sign.
When Gomez walked the red carpet, Blanco was there to show his support, kissing her from the sidelines in an Instagram video shared by E! News.

Gomez’s moody ensemble featured an Oscar de la Renta dress made with a scalloped neckline and maroon embellishments crafted from 450,000 sequins, according to E!’s red carpet correspondent, Zanna Roberts Rassi. She paired the glitzy design with deep red velvet Rene Caovilla heels.
Only Murders in the Building, which stars Gomez, Martin Short and Steve Martin, was nominated for outstanding comedy series at the award show. Blanco, for his part, was her supportive plus-one.
Earlier this month, a source told PEOPLE that Gomez is “super happy and present” amid her new romance.
“She seems to be really feeling herself at the moment,” the source told PEOPLE. “Maybe that’s Benny or maybe that’s just where she’s at personally and professionally.”
“Everyone is so happy that she’s happy,” the insider added before revealing that her loved ones are “protective” of Gomez.
