The music producer and cookbook author is in the running for PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive

Selena Gomez is proud to be dating a contender for PEOPLE’s 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.

On Monday, Nov. 11, the Only Murders in the Building actress, 32, shared a photo from Benny Blanco’s interview and spread with PEOPLE for the SMA countdown — while adding her own sweet message.

“Not only do you love me unconditionally... You always get me my Taco Bell Mexican pizza,” Gomez wrote on her Instagram Stories under a photo of Blanco, 36, who was photographed laying on a dinner table and revealing his version of the fast food dish.

In a second Instagram Stories post, the “Love On” singer shared a quote that served as a reminder as to how she feels about her boyfriend.

“I still haven't figured out how to sit across from you, and not be madly in love with everything you do,” the message read, with her tagging the music producer in the message.

During his interview with PEOPLE, Blanco said he’d learned how to make his own version of Taco Bell’s signature meat because Gomez loves it so much.

“[I learned how to] recreate Taco Bell meat. I've practiced a lot, and I think it's pretty indistinguishable now if you put them side by side. There's so many things you have to do. Part of the meat is kind of blended. It's disgusting, but it's delicious. I do it all from scratch,” he told PEOPLE.

“Even if you're terrible at cooking, [your partner will] like it because you did it. Ask your partner what they want to eat. Don't try to cook them what you want to eat. If you don't know how to cook it — learn it,” he advised.

“If you don't know how to learn it, get it from Postmates and put it on a plate and pretend you cooked it," Blanco quipped. "No, lying is bad! We never lie. Especially if you're a guy, we're disgusting. No one should even look at us. Try to be chivalrous: Tell her how pretty she is. Chivalry's not dead.”

Blanco has been dating Gomez since 2023, and referred to her as his “best friend.”

"I'm a real morning person. It's my favorite time to spend with Sel, because we both wake up really early. It's like our moment before the rest of the world wakes up," he told PEOPLE. "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."

PEOPLE’s 2024 Sexiest Man Alive will be revealed on Tuesday, Nov. 12.
