BLACKPINK’s Lisa recently make history by appearing at the 97th Oscars in Los Angeles on March 2. With this, she has become the first-ever K-pop artist to take the stage at this prestigious event, where she performs alongside rapper Doja Cat and British singer-songwriter Raye.
Appearing at the Oscars, Lisa shows up in a daring style – donning a floor-length black and white suit with a rose on her suit pocket. It is said that Lisa‘s outfit matches that of Doja Cat and Raye to pay homage to cinema legendary James Bond and his girls. This is likely to match the trio’s tribute performance that will happen at the event.
On the other hand, Lisa is set to perform “Born Again,” a standout track from her highly anticipated debut solo album “Alter Ego,” due for release on February 28. Featuring Doja Cat and Raye, the song has already garnered attention, entering the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at number 69 and debuting at number 13 on the UK Official Top 100, marking its growing international success.
This performance holds even greater significance as Lisa, despite her Thai origins, has achieved global stardom with BLACKPINK, one of the most influential K-pop girl groups.
In addition to Lisa, other high-profile performers at the ceremony will include Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, who will take the stage from the musical “Wicked,” ensuring an unforgettable night of performances at this year’s Oscars.
However, on social media platforms, while many have congratulated Lisa on this remarkable achievement, there are still a variety of mixed reactions and opposing opinions regarding her appearance at the awards ceremony. Some comments include, “How is this song even relevant to the Oscars?” or “We all know her boyfriend paid for this.”
Therefore, Lisa’s groundbreaking performance at the Oscars is not only a triumph for her career but also a monumental moment for K-pop, further solidifying its global presence in the entertainment industry.
