Gomez got her start in Hollywood as a child actress on the series “Barney & Friends” at age 10 before landing the role of Alex Russo on Disney Channel’s “Wizards of Waverly Place” and releasing a slew of hit albums — plus she was homeschooled — so she never got the chance to attend a prom.
However, her Prince Charming changed all of that.
The Post called Photomakers but was informed that the staff was forced to sign NDAs so they couldn’t spill the fun details of their shoot, but Blanco shared the sweet footage of the prom he threw for Gomez via Instagram on Thursday.
Set to the song “Just the Two of Us” by Bill Withers and Grover Washington, Jr., the music producer explained, “My fiancée has never been to prom before…so I asked her if we should take prom photos together at a mall…she said yes!”
Gomez, 32, wore a purple gown while her thoughtful fiancé sported a black tuxedo and bowtie. She got her stairwell moment, and Blanco pulled out all the stops. The couple of nearly two years even arrived at a mall in a limo to take their prom pictures together.
“It was more fun than either of us expected it to be,” Blanco wrote, including their snaps of the outdated, blue backdrop.In one shot, Blanco was on all fours as Gomez sat on top of him.
“This is how they turned out,” Blanco continued as the final images appeared in the video montage. They busted out the classic prom poses, too, including one gazing into each other’s eyes. Fans flocked to the comments section to share their admiration for Blanco’s idea.
“The greenest flag to ever be flown!!!!! We love you Benny!!!!” one follower wrote, while a second fan chimed in, “Did u come straight out of a romance novel or what?”
Blanco first revealed the sweet gesture while on “The Jennifer Hudson Show” earlier this month, detailing, “Selena had never been to a prom before, so I thought I’d throw us a prom for my birthday.”
Despite Blanco going to his prom back in school, he shared with host Jennifer Hudson, 43, “Honestly, my favorite prom was with my partner.”
