The 36-year-old producer had arguably gone from someone notable behind the scenes to just simply famous after he and singer Selena Gomez started dating and went public with their relationship in 2023.
Blanco gushed about his love for his girlfriend in an interview as one of People’s sexy men for 2024.
“I have a true best friend that I get to do everything in the world with, and every day is the best day of my life,” he said.
The 36-year-old producer is behind in some of the greatest hits of the 2000s, namely Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream, Rihanna’s Diamonds, and Maroon 5’s Payphone.
