The start-up founded by singer and actress Selena Gomez has become embroiled in a major scandal. Investors who put money into the project are accusing the star and her mother of fraud.

Five investors have filed a lawsuit in federal court in Delaware against Selena Gomez, her mother Mandy Teefey, former business partner Daniella Pierson and Wondermind Global. According to Reuters, the plaintiffs are seeking the return of nearly $1.2 million they invested in the start-up. They are also seeking damages and reimbursement of their legal expenses.

Wondermind was launched in 2021 as a platform designed to help people take care of their mental health. One of the start-up’s key advantages was said to be Selena Gomez’s involvement — the star has an audience of more than 500 million followers across social media.

According to the investors, the singer’s enormous popularity was expected to help Wondermind quickly attract an audience, business partners and advertisers. They were allegedly promised collaborations with major brands, advertising deals and the launch of a mobile app.

However, the lawsuit claims that a significant portion of those plans never went beyond the proposal stage. The promised Wondermind app was never developed, while the announced partnerships and advertising projects, according to the plaintiffs, never materialized.

«There were no partnerships. The initiatives were never implemented. The program was never created. And for three years, while the company quietly collapsed, none of its founders, executives or directors said a word to the investors whose money funded this failure», the complaint states.

The investors also claim that the situation became so difficult that the company allegedly struggled at times to pay its employees on time and settle payments owed to contractors. By spring 2025, Wondermind was reportedly on the brink of bankruptcy, while its workforce had been reduced by nearly two-thirds.

Court documents also state that Selena Gomez allegedly had certain contractual obligations to Wondermind. According to the investors’ account, however, she simply ignored them.

Producer and husband of singer Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco, has once again sparked a wave of criticism. This time, the musician drew public backlash following the launch of his new podcast «Friends Keep Secrets».

The 37-year-old producer launched the show alongside his friend, rapper Lil Dicky, and his wife. The format was intended to feel максимально relaxed – a couch setting, uncensored jokes and a casual, home-like atmosphere. However, the main cause of outrage was a moment in which Blanco was seen sitting barefoot on the couch, with the camera zooming in on his visibly dirty feet, which he had stretched out in the direction of his female podcast co-host, as reported by the Daily Mail.

The situation was further aggravated by another clip in which the producer jokingly passed gas into the microphone and asked the team not to edit the sound out.

Social media quickly erupted with comments such as: «Bro, you need to take a shower and hire a cleaner», «This is disgusting, I don’t understand how Selena tolerates this», and «Selena should get divorced and find someone better», among others.

American singer Taylor Swift has just unveiled her twelfth studio album, The Life of a Showgirl. The new record is already being hailed as one of the most anticipated releases of the fall season.

Among the first to congratulate Taylor on the premiere was her longtime friend, Selena Gomez. The star shared a heartfelt video from her recent wedding, capturing a touching moment between the two: Swift sincerely thanks her friend, compliments her appearance, and speaks warmly about their enduring friendship.

Alongside the video, Gomez also posted a series of photos of the two together, captioning them:

«In honor of SHOWGIRL… thank God you’ve been by my side for almost 20 years! I love you, Taylor Swift — always and forever.»

As a reminder, the two singers first met back in 2008, when both were dating the Jonas brothers — Selena with Nick, and Taylor with Joe.

No sooner had admirers recovered from the lavish wedding shots of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco than the singer unveiled a new series of images. The Only Murders in the Building star shared photos with her newlywed husband and her grandfather, who accompanied her down the aisle.

Selena also revealed a glimpse of the couple’s first dance and their wedding cake — understated yet refined. The heart-shaped dessert was adorned with figurines of the bride and groom along with the inscription «Just Married.»

What stands out is that Gomez chose not one, but three different gowns for the occasion, each crafted by the fashion house Ralph Lauren.

Her first look was a silk gown in a creamy shade, featuring an open back and a crisscross neckline. The dress was embellished with draping along the entire length and delicate ruffles at the collar, completed with a light, sheer veil in the same hue.

For her walk down the aisle, the singer changed into a lace gown of a similar cut — a look fans hailed as the most striking and unforgettable of the day.

The celebrations continued with a third outfit: an elegant white dress in 1950s style, complete with a voluminous midi skirt and a playful ruched neckline.

It is worth recalling that last weekend Selena Gomez married producer Benny Blanco after nearly two years of dating. Despite speculation and reporters’ attempts to uncover details, the ceremony took place in absolute secrecy. Only the following day did the star herself confirm the joyous event by sharing photos online.

The love story of Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco began as a long-standing friendship, which blossomed into romance at the end of 2023. A year later, the musician proposed, and the couple celebrated their engagement with the release of a joint album, I Said I Love You First.

Now it has been revealed that the two have officially tied the knot. The happy news was shared by Selena herself, who posted the first photographs from the wedding.

The ceremony took place in California, at the charming Sea Crest Nursery estate in the city of Goleta.

The bride walked down the aisle in a custom-made satin gown by Ralph Lauren. Her delicate look was completed with platinum Tiffany & Co. diamond earrings and a bouquet of lilies of the valley.

The groom appeared in a classic black tuxedo with a bow tie.

Among the guests were close friends and colleagues of the couple: Taylor Swift, Martin Short, Steve Martin, Paul Rudd, Eric André, Paris Hilton, Ed Sheeran, and other celebrities.

Noticeably absent, however, was Nicola Peltz, with whom Selena had once shared a close friendship. According to insiders, Peltz and her husband Brooklyn Beckham have lost many friends in recent years, allegedly due to Nicola’s difficult character.

Recently, American rapper Lil Dicky tied the knot with longtime partner and producer Christine Bataluccio.

The wedding took place on a picturesque oceanfront, surrounded by close friends and family.

Among the invited guests were Selena Gomez and her fiancé, Benny Blanco.

For the special occasion, the singer wore a striking red dress topped with a black fur coat. Her elegant look was completed with minimalist jewelry and a Valentino handbag.

Blanco opted for a bold royal blue silk suit, paired with a black shirt.

«From yesterday’s wedding», Selena captioned a photo.

The images show the couple enjoying a warm and joyful evening in great company. Earlier this year in March, Benny Blanco publicly wished Lil Dicky a happy birthday, calling him his best friend.

As a reminder, Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are also engaged and planning their own wedding. However, the couple has yet to reveal any details or set a date.

American singer and actress Selena Gomez, ahead of her 33rd birthday — which she is celebrating today, July 22 — shared moments from the celebration. On Instagram, the star posted photos from a private rooftop party where she spent time with her closest friends, including her fiancé Benny Blanco, her close friend Taylor Swift, and a few others.

For the occasion, Selena chose a striking look: a sparkly sequin jumpsuit that perfectly reflected the festive mood of the evening. She completed the look with an elegant eco-friendly faux fur coat in soft white, adding a touch of luxury and glamorous charm to her outfit.

«As I get ready to celebrate turning 33, I can’t help but reflect on the incredible journey that has brought me here. This past year has truly been the most beautiful of my life, and I owe so much of it to all of you. Thank you for your unwavering love and kindness. Whether you’ve cheered me on, shared in my highs and lows, or simply listened, you’ve made this year unforgettable. I am endlessly and wildly grateful for all your love. As I step into this new year, I’m filled with excitement and hope for what’s to come. I can’t wait to share more moments with you, create new memories, and continue this beautiful journey together. Love you all like crazy,» Selena wrote under the photo.

As a reminder, in December 2024, Gomez announced her engagement to music producer Benny Blanco after a year and a half of dating. The couple met while working together on music. While the exact wedding date remains unknown, sources close to the couple say Selena wants the ceremony to be as private as possible.

Prior to this, Gomez had a high-profile relationship with Justin Bieber. Despite his marriage to Hailey Bieber and the recent birth of their first child, fans continue to actively discuss Selena’s past romance with her ex in social media.

In the world of Disney stars, a normal childhood is more the exception than the rule. Instead of school hallways — film sets; instead of prom — red carpets and tours. Selena Gomez was no exception: in her youth, she never had the chance to attend her own prom.

But it seems Selena’s boyfriend, producer Benny Blanco, decided to make up for this injustice. After learning that the star had never been to prom, he organized a romantic reconstruction of that unforgettable night — just like in classic American movies.

Everything was by the book: glamorous outfits, the staircase where Selena descended to meet her date, a limousine, and of course, a photo shoot at the local mall. A true teenage dream brought to life.

Blanco’s gesture touched the hearts of the singer’s fans. Social media is buzzing with admiration: it seems Benny is becoming not only the perfect boyfriend, but also a favorite among Selena’s supporters.

We’re kicking off our Friday by listening to the new album by Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco – I Said I Love You First. It marks the singer’s first release after a five-year hiatus. The album was produced by Benny, but other artists also participated in recording and creating the material. Among them are Gracie Abrams, Charli XCX, Finneas, and Cashmere Cat.

I Said I Love You First is dedicated to the love story of a couple and covers all the important moments – the first meeting, falling in love, and reflecting on a shared future. According to the singer herself, the new album is «a direct result of the harmony that she and Blanco felt while working together», allowing them to create art that genuinely reflects their experiences.

The release features 14 tracks in total. The most attention-grabbing single is Young and Hotter Than Me, which sings about heartbreak and unrequited love – seemingly an allusion to the singer’s past romance with Justin Bieber.

«Benny, thank you for being my personal diary throughout this entire process. These songs represent our past, present, and future… Thank you for pouring your unconditional love into creating this project with me», the singer addressed her fiancé.

Let’s listen to the album!
