When Selena Gomez announced her engagement to boyfriend Benny Blanco last week, fans thought the proposal was perfect... maybe a little too perfect?
After followers picked up on one rather bizarre detail included in the couple's big moment, an even more whacky theory was formed about the arrangement Benny had made to pop the all-important question.
And now, after they shared another insight into their special day, fans say their theory has been confirmed.
But if you're reading this with absolutely no idea what we're on about, allow us to fill you in...

Singer Selena took to social media on Wednesday night (11 December) to reveal that she and her boyfriend Benny were making plans to tie the knot after 18 months of dating.
A series of Instagram snaps - captioned, 'forever begins now...' - were shared by the 32-year-old star, one which showed her sitting on a patch of rather pristine-looking grass, surrounded by a picnic of Taco Bell items.
Other pictures included in the carousel saw Selena showing off a jaw-dropping new marquise diamond ring - which Benny had chosen in an ode to one of her chart-topping songs - and one of the couple embracing.
"Hey wait… that’s my wife," 36-year-old Benny later commented on the photo.
Naturally, the musician was praised widely for the countless details and thoughtful gestures he included in the special moment.
So much so, that some fans believed that Benny might have constructed the entire proposal like a set, with some claiming the lighting and false-looking grass could have come straight from a movie.
"More importantly why does it look like they’re outside but inside at the same time," one commented on their initial announcement.
Another user echoed: "They seem to be on the set? It looks fake grass and a wall is painted."
Now, the husband-and-wife-to-be have taken to social media once again to share another video from their big day, with Benny revealing that the fan speculation was pretty bang on the entire time.
In a short clip where Benny and Selena could be seen clinking champagne flutes, colossal movie lights were visible, showing that the entire proposal location was created to appear as though they were outside.
"So it was a set? Sponsored by taco bell? The picture looks all planned," one penned in the comments.
Another added: "I thought it was their back yard but is that a filming set?"
