Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco made a dazzling appearance at the Los Angeles premiere of Netflix's new documentary on Martin Short, aptly titled "Marty, Life Is Short." Gomez, dressed in an elegant black Carolina Herrera gown, graced the red carpet, while Blanco, matching her in black, opted to stay out of the limelight, ensuring all eyes were on the comedic legend.
The evening was a celebration of Gomez's friendship with Martin Short, who she has been working alongside in the hit series "Only Murders in the Building," also starring Steve Martin. Although Gomez and Blanco arrived together, they chose not to pose as a couple, keeping the focus firmly on Short.
The next morning, Selena took to Instagram to share her admiration for Short, reflecting on their bond and his incredible contributions to comedy. "This man who doesn’t have social media is truly outstandingly witty, smart, and has given the most wonderful attributes to our world of comedy," she wrote, urging her followers to watch the documentary on Netflix.
“Some may not know much that follow me. But Martin Short is nothing short of a legend. His outlook on life is simply joyful. I cried, laughed and empathized his entire story. Check it out on @netflix now please. Worth every minute. 🎬📽️🥲 -thank you Marty for your inspiring and tremendous heart that makes me forever happy.”
Earlier this year, Gomez expressed her love for both Short and Martin in an Instagram Story, emphasizing the cherished friendship they share. "My favorite guys," she captioned a photo of the trio, adding, "I’ll always be there for them as they have been for me. Love you Steve and I love you Marty."
The premiere was not just a showcase of Short's storied career but also a testament to the deep connections formed between these beloved stars. Gomez's heartfelt words and presence at the event highlighted the unique bond she shares with the comedy icon, making the night unforgettable for everyone involved.
