Rising to fame as the breakout star of TikTok and gaining major traction with his hit singles, 22 year old Washington-born singer-songwriter, Benson Boone has quickly become a name on everyone’s lips.

From auditioning on American Idol in 2019, to topping the Spotify charts last year with his hit single ‘Beautiful Things’, Benson is currently living his dream, having wrapped up an Australian tour, by closing out the Australian Open in Melbourne with a special performance on January 23. 

If you haven’t heard ‘Beautiful Things’ yet, we don’t know what to tell you—but you better hit play ASAP because it’s been topping charts for a reason. With its swoon-worthy lyrics, “I want you, I need you,” the question on everyone’s mind now is—who did he write this song about?
