Benny Blanco was in Vegas this week, betting a few bucks … and apparently not taking the couple-y pics Selena Gomez posted online … this amid the Biebers’ pregnancy news.
New photos and video, obtained by TMZ, show Benny sipping on a drink and making a few bets at the Wynn Thursday — right around the time Justin and Hailey Bieber announced they were expecting their first child together.
The reason that’s relevant … well, Selena posted some snaps of the two of them around that exact same time as well — kinda making it seem she was with Benny during the bombshell.
Take a look … there’s BB at the table, doing his thing and minding his biz. Other photos we got a hold of show him walking with an older woman — who looks to be his mother.
We’re told this Benny sighting happened around the afternoon — and that he was in the building from 3:30 PM to around 8 PM … with no Selena in sight.
Again, it’s NBD obviously … but what it suggests is that Selena might’ve intentionally posted those lovey-dovey photos of herself and Benny on the heels of the Bieber announcement.
Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
As we reported … Selena Gomez posted cute couple pics — including a black and white photo of her and Benny holding hands — just a couple hours after Justin and Hailey Bieber announced their pregnancy news. It was hard to decipher at the time if those went up by coincidence … or if it was meant to send a message to her ex, Justin, and foe, Hailey.
Some took Selena’s post as her response to the news … flaunting how well she’s doing in her new relationship, highlighting the fact she’s moved on. But, if Benny’s in Vegas … it’s unlikely those pics were taken yesterday … they might just be old shots on the camera roll.
That said, we don’t know for sure Selena wasn’t in LV too, keeping a low profile. We don’t have any evidence that she was though … and word is, she’s been filming in NYC.
JB and SG’s relationship timeline’s pretty well known … months after they broke up for the final time, Justin went to a New York courthouse to marry Hailey — and the two have lived in bliss ever since. Of course, Selena and Hailey have been ensnared in conflict on and off.
Now, the question must be asked … was Selena trying to throw a lil’ shade and be petty??? The world may never know. 😅
