Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Singer-actress Selena Gomez is celebrating the release of her new single 'Te Olvido (La La)', a cumbia-inspired Latin pop track recorded alongside her husband, producer Benny Blanco, and singer Becky G. Gomez said she 'had the best time' making the song, marking the first-ever studio collaboration between her and Becky G.
What Gomez Said About the Song
Sharing a glimpse of the music video on Instagram, Gomez wrote: 'Te Olvido (La La) with @itsbennyblanco and @iambeckyg is out now. I love this song so much and had the best time making it with two people I adore. Hope you love it too.'
The track is a celebration of Chicana heritage, blending cumbia rhythms with Latin pop sensibilities — a creative direction that reflects both Gomez's and Becky G's cultural roots.
Part of Benny Blanco's Album 'Hermoso'
'Te Olvido (La La)' is a lead single from Benny Blanco's upcoming Spanish-language-inspired album, Hermoso, set to release on 14 August. The album marks a significant stylistic pivot for Blanco, best known for his English-language pop productions.
Notably, this is the first time Selena Gomez and Becky G have collaborated on a recorded track, making the release a milestone for fans of both artists.
Gomez and Blanco: From Romance to Creative Partnership
Gomez and Blanco began dating in June 2023. Their engagement was formally announced in December 2024, following months of media speculation. The couple married on 27 September 2025, and 'Te Olvido (La La)' is their first publicly released musical collaboration as a married couple.
Who Are the Artists Behind the Track
Gomez launched her career as a child actress on Barney & Friends before rising to teen-idol status on Wizards of Waverly Place. She has since released three studio albums — Kiss & Tell, A Year Without Rain, and When the Sun Goes Down — and starred in films including Spring Breakers, the Hotel Transylvania franchise, and Emilia Pérez. She has also produced acclaimed series such as 13 Reasons Why and Only Murders in the Building since 2021, and holds 16 Guinness World Records among her accolades.
Becky G entered the mainstream with her 2014 single 'Shower', which reached the top twenty on the US Billboard Hot 100. She made her formal entry into the Latin music market in 2016 with her first full Spanish-language single, 'Sola', and has since become one of the genre's prominent voices.
What's Next
With Hermoso arriving on 14 August, all eyes are on how Blanco's Spanish-language project — anchored by collaborators as high-profile as Gomez and Becky G — lands with both mainstream pop and Latin music audiences.
