The Indian actress-dancer Nora Fatehi turned heads at the 2025 American Music Awards, not only for her stunning appearance but also for her noticeable connection with American pop sensation Benson Boone. Their interactions throughout the evening led to immediate speculation about a possible relationship.
A source quoted by a film portal described the pair’s chemistry as intense and said that it was far more than just polite conversation. Neither Nora nor Benson has addressed the rumours publicly but the buzz around them has quickly captured fans’ curiosity.
Benson Boone, now 21, first caught the public eye through American Idol in 2021. Despite having only a year of singing experience, he impressed judges Katy Perry, Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan enough to earn a golden ticket to Hollywood Week. However, he chose to exit the show early.
In interviews, Benson has explained that he stepped away from American Idol because he wanted to stay true to himself and build his musical career independently. He felt reality TV could misrepresent his identity and he preferred to connect with audiences through social media. His parents were initially confused by the decision but eventually supported him after understanding his perspective.
He then turned to TikTok, where he quickly gained popularity. Even before releasing his debut single Ghost Town, he had already built a following of 1.7 million. The song later charted on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned him invitations to major talk shows including The Ellen DeGeneres Show, The Kelly Clarkson Show and Late Night with Seth Meyers.
In 2024, Benson’s rising fame received another boost when Taylor Swift selected him as one of the opening acts for her Eras Tour in London at Wembley. His performances at Coachella 2025 further solidified his place in the music scene.
Now, as his name makes waves in India due to his connection with Nora Fatehi, Benson Boone’s global appeal seems to be growing even faster.
