While promoting “Love On” with Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1, Selena revealed what makes this relationship stand out against past relationships.

“Without getting into too much detail, I think it’s just really important to meet someone that respects you,” she said. “And I think it’s really nice to also lean on someone who understands the world that I live in. But I’d have to say overall it’s the safest that I feel and it’s been really lovely and I’ve only grown through it, so it’s awesome.”

Speaking of her new single, Selena also dished on expressing happiness through her music.

“The idea is that I was inspired a lot by living in Paris, that for two months I had to work there and I loved just the quality of life and how romantic it felt,” she said, referring to the new song’s inspiration. “And then to kind of feel really happy in my life and actually mean it is so, it’s just like you can tell in my video, I’m just smiling the whole time. It’s such a good feeling.”

Selena added, “It’s really, really great. No, I was absolutely able to live life freely and I felt, even though I was single then I felt like it was one of the most romantic cities and just everything from walking down the street to a little cafe, it can be really sweet.”

Earlier this month, Selena and Benny were seen going out for a Grammys after party.
