During a Twitch stream with Kai Cenat, Benny revealed that Gomez made the first move, a comment that some fans found "embarrassing" for the pop star and actress.
Blanco, 36, who has been romantically linked to the Only Murders in the Building star since December 2023, recounted how their first date unfolded.
He described Gomez, 32, asking him to dinner, noting his surprise when he realized it was a date.
"I didn't even realize we were on a date," he said, adding that their connection grew quickly after that initial meeting.
While some fans viewed Benny's comments as a sweet anecdote, others criticized him for oversharing.
Social media was flooded with remarks accusing the songwriter of humiliating Gomez, with one fan commenting, "He has had 100 chances to embarrass her, and he hasn't missed a single one."
Another added, "Selena must be a masochist the way he has been humiliating her."

Many defended Gomez's confidence in taking control of her romantic life.
"She did what she wanted. She's living her own life. Leave them alone," one supporter wrote.
