Trace Cyrus believes Benny Blanco needs to change his mindset if his relationship with Selena Gomez "is going to last"

The 36-year-old musician - who is the brother of Miley and Noah Cyrus - wrote on Instagram: "Men don't have to be attractive to be with a beautiful woman. They just need to have confidence."

Trace observed that Benny and Selena - who got engaged in 2024 - are equally deserving of one another.

He said: "I don't know Benny personally but I love him as a producer and have watched every podcast he's done. Love his personality. And in my view she's just as lucky to be with him as he is with her. That's the mindset he needs if the relationship is going to last."

Trace subsequently suggested that Benny needs to change his outlook.

He wrote: "Confidence is key as a man and unfortunately women think they want to be put on a pedestal but as soon as you act like they are superior in the relationship they start to lose respect."

Earlier this year, Benny admitted to being "scared" that Selena might leave him one day.

The record producer - who has collaborated with Selena on a new album called 'I Said I Love You First' - told Interview magazine: "I'm so scared she's just going to wake up and be like, 'What? No.'"

Despite this, Benny insisted that there's "no ego between [them]".

He explained: "I worship the ground she walks on and I feel like she's the same way to me. There's no ego between us. She's praying for me to win and I'm praying for her to win."
