In a night of glamour and excitement, Selena Gomez and her new husband Benny Blanco made their highly anticipated red carpet debut as a married couple at the 5th Annual Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday. The star-studded event was the perfect setting for the newlyweds to show off their love and style.

Gomez, who has been making headlines with her stunning wedding pictures, looked absolutely breathtaking in a black velvet gown that hugged her curves perfectly. The fitted dress featured intricate silver glittering details around the neckline, giving it an extra touch of sophistication. Her brunette locks were styled in an elegant up-do, which revealed a pair of dazzling earrings that sparkled under the lights.

The Only Murders In The Building star's makeup was flawless, with a subtle layer of mascara and a soft pink blush adding to her radiant glow. A dark red lip color completed her look, leaving onlookers speechless. Gomez finished off her ensemble by draping a black velvet blazer over her shoulders and slipping into a pair of chic black shoes.

Blanco, the talented music producer, didn't disappoint either! He opted for a dashing navy blue suit made of velvet material, which matched Gomez's dress perfectly. A blue shirt underneath added a pop of color, while his black loafers and gold jewelry completed his stylish look.

The newlyweds were spotted posing for solo pictures upon arrival at the main venue, where they later shared a romantic photos session together. Blanco was seen lovingly holding Gomez's hand, sending hearts racing among fans. The couple's latest outing comes after their "perfect" honeymoon, which reportedly included a road trip along California's coast and a visit to Gomez's home state of Texas.

It comes only weeks after the couple said 'I do' during a three-day wedding extravaganza in Santa Barbara late last month in September

According to sources close to the couple, they celebrated their nuptials with a romantic getaway that was everything they had hoped for. "They loved their little honeymoon," an insider revealed to TheScholarlyNote.com. "They celebrated for days during their wedding and were on such a high." The source also shared that Gomez and Blanco thought their honeymoon was the perfect opportunity to slow down and relax, which is exactly what they did.

The couple's love story has been making waves in the media, with many wondering how they managed to keep it under wraps for so long. Gomez recently opened up about her wedding day, revealing that she had been feeling anxious and even sobbed after exchanging vows with Blanco. "This is how I work personally, but [when] something great happens in my life, I expect something bad to happen," she confessed at the Fortune's Most Powerful Women conference in Washington, D.C.

Gomez explained that her irrational fear of losing good things often gets the better of her. "I would say that's my biggest conflict sometimes when wonderful things happen," she said. "I got married and then I was sobbing because I was like, 'I'm gonna die the next day.' I just think that's a little life thing."

The Only Murders in the Building star tied the knot with Blanco on September 27 at a picturesque 70-acre private estate in Santa Barbara, California. The intimate ceremony featured a star-studded guest list of over 170 loved ones, including Gomez's co-stars Martin Short and Steve Martin, her longtime best friend Taylor Swift, and many more.

As we continue to follow the romance between Gomez and Blanco, one thing is clear: this power couple is here to stay! With their love and style on full display at the Academy Museum Gala, fans can't help but feel a little bit of magic in the air. Stay tuned for more updates from the world of celebrity news!
