The aftermath of BLACKPINK’s Lisa’s appearance on an adult-rated show has her constantly in the swirl of controversy, with a myriad of negative issues, from cut-off rumors to discord allegations, persistently emerging.
Recently, Bulgari’s CEO Jean-Christophe Babin, on his personal account, consecutively posted photos and videos of Lisa, who is active as an ambassador for the luxury brand. Online communities and various channels are interpreting this as an indication that the recent ‘Lisa cut-off rumors’ are not factual.
Lisa has been caught up in negative issues before, with her Weibo account in China being closed and some of her photos being removed from the account of the Chinese luxury brand she represents as an ambassador.
Media outlets like CNN have reported that China suspends or deletes accounts if they violate censorship rules or if the individual as a celebrity commits undignified acts, interpreting the controversy as related to Lisa’s September appearance in Paris at the ‘Crazy Horse,’ one of the top three adult-rated shows.
‘Crazy Horse,’ a show criticized for objectifying women and its risqué content, had faced opposition from fans both in Korea and internationally just at the announcement of Lisa’s participation. While it was reported that no concerning incidents occurred during Lisa’s actual appearance, the participation itself sparked significant controversy.
Following the show appearance, Lisa found herself in a difficult situation with the closing of her Weibo account and rumors of being cut off by the luxury brand. However, seemingly aware of this, the Bulgari CEO flooded his account with fond memories and photos of Lisa, easing the concerns of fans worldwide regarding the cut-off rumors.
Furthermore, there are now discord rumors with Frédéric Arnault, the third-generation heir who once stirred up dating speculations with Lisa. Some interpret this discord as another backlash from the adult-rated show participation, with the controversy showing no signs of subsiding.
In such a climate where the aftereffects of Lisa’s adult show controversy continue day by day, netizens are expressing diverse opinions such as, “Did Lisa commit a crime?” “Is it worth slandering her to this extent?” “It’s overly dramatic,” “They’re really looking out for Lisa,” and “It seems like they’re keeping an eye on fan reactions.”
Meanwhile, BLACKPINK, which Lisa is a member of, has been in discussions for months with their agency YG Entertainment about the renewal of their contract.
