Benson Boone opened up about his unexpected friendship with Tom Holland at the 2025 American Music Awards. The "Slow It Down" singer revealed that their bond formed through "word of mouth" and eventually "got around".

When asked if he would sing at Tom Holland and Zendaya's wedding, Boone didn't hesitate. His response? "Immediate, yes, of course, of course. I'm not gonna pass that over." Holland and Zendaya, both 28, announced their engagement at the 2025 Golden Globes, where Zendaya debuted a stunning engagement ring.
However, their wedding isn't happening anytime soon, as Zendaya's stylist, Law Roach, shared that the couple is busy with multiple movie projects and red-carpet events.

In April, he shared, "It is far away." "You will see a lot of red carpets since they are both filming a lot of movies this year and there are a lot of premieres next year."
"I am resting up for 2026," Law hinted. Benson is, too. After all, the "Beautiful Things" singer has had a "crazy year."
"It's hard to try and keep up with everything and feel like I'm on top of it," He disclosed it during the AMAs. "Just a lot coming and going very quickly, and it's a little overwhelming at times, but at the same time as I'm just trying my best. I'm just trying to be trying to do what I love and trying to do it in a way that makes me happy."
Boone also has reflected on his whirlwind year, admitting that keeping up with everything has been overwhelming but rewarding. He credited his team and family for their support, saying, "I'm just doing my best out here."
Benson Boone lit up the 2025 American Music Awards stage with a dazzling performance of his hit single "Mystical Magical". Dressed in a purple patterned suit adorned with rhinestones, Boone kicked off his performance with smooth vocals before launching into his signature backflip, impressively clearing an entire staircase.
His high-energy set had the crowd on their feet, and he even took a moment to interact with Nikki Glaser and Heidi Klum, continuing his playful awards-show antics. The song is part of his upcoming album, American Heart, set to release on June 20. Boone was also nominated for New Artist of the Year, though the award ultimately went to Gracie Abrams.
