Breaking: Two attractive 22-year-olds were seen holding hands in public and the internet is somehow still functioning.
Pop-singer-slash-heartthrob Benson Boone and TikTok cutie Maggie Thurmon were caught serving soft couple goals while roaming the streets of Malibu like a real-life Pinterest board on Sunday (May 11). Hand in hand, hearts full, probably digesting overpriced avocado toast.
Benson, aka Mr. “Mystical Magical” (which lowkey sounds like a Harry Potter spell or a Bath & Body Works candle), kept things casual-cute in a black tank, jeans, and boots. Giving us “I chop wood but also write poetry” energy. Meanwhile, Maggie rocked a crisp white top, jeans, and brown sandals — the official uniform of “I’m just naturally pretty.”
ICYMI: These two made their red carpet debut at the MTV VMAs in September 2024, officially confirming what fans already knew — that they’re adorable and we’re just out here third-wheeling from our couch.
And while the couple was out soaking up the sun, it’s worth noting Benson was recently at Coachella doing very important things like performing music, announcing exciting career moves, and probably sweating through his shirt in 110-degree desert heat.
Oh, and about being a sex symbol? In a recent interview, Benson confessed he’s not aiming to be the “sex icon of the century,” mostly because he doesn’t spend every waking second obsessing over his body. (Relatable king behavior.) He basically said, “Look, I’m hot, but let’s not make it weird.”
Benson and Maggie are thriving, Malibu is still expensive, and we’re all just out here trying to find someone to hold our hand while walking in coordinated denim.
