Benny Blanco recently opened up about his early morning routine and how it’s his favorite time of day, especially when it comes to spending it with Selena Gomez. The Grammy-nominated music producer shared his appreciation for the quiet hours before the world wakes up in a candid conversation with People.
Blanco, a self-described “real morning person,” explained that he and Selena both wake up early, making mornings their special time together. “It’s my favorite time to spend with Sel because we both wake up really early,” he shared. The two typically start their day with breakfast at around 6:15 a.m., enjoying a peaceful moment before the rest of the world gets moving. “It’s like our moment before the rest of the world wakes up,” Blanco added.
While revealing his sleep schedule, Blanco jokingly referred to himself as “an old man” due to his preference for going to bed early. “I get sleepy at nighttime. I’m like an old man. I want to go to bed early. I want to lay down. I want to be horizontal as quickly as possible throughout the day,” he said with a laugh.
Despite his early bedtimes, Blanco admitted that his body clock still wakes him up at the same time every day. “I still wake up at 6 no matter what time I go to bed. I could go to bed at 5:30 a.m. and I’ll be up by 6:15,” he shared, emphasizing his consistent early riser habits.
Blanco’s early morning moments with Selena highlight their shared routine and the quiet bond they share before starting their busy days. As both work in high-energy industries, their mornings together offer a peaceful escape from the chaos that often follows.
