As tensions simmered, Emotional Oranges addressed fan backlash.
The American R&B duo Emotional Oranges has responded to growing speculation surrounding their potential collaboration with NewJeans member Danielle.
Recently, the duo’s official Instagram shared a photo featuring Danielle alongside a caption that read, “Just give us some time, guys, it’s coming.” This post ignited rumors of an imminent collaboration between Danielle and the duo.
The post included playful references, featuring an orange emoji, symbolizing Emotional Oranges, and a bunny emoji, which resonates with NewJeans’ fandom, known as “Bunnies.” Despite the presence of Danielle’s sister, Olivia, in the photo, fans quickly jumped to conclusions about a new project involving Danielle.
As excitement bubbled over, some fans raised concerns about the appropriateness of Danielle recording music amid an ongoing legal battle between NewJeans and ADOR. Many questioned whether she should be in the studio during this sensitive time, especially with professional activities reportedly suspended pending legal resolution.

Faced with escalating backlash, the original post was promptly deleted, further provoking speculation. However, on May 22, the duo shared the photo again, this time emphasizing clarity in their message.
In their new caption, Emotional Oranges clarified, stating, “Guys, there’s no Dani collab. I was just helping produce a song for Livvie 😭😭!! Sorry if we caused any confusion, but that genuinely wasn’t the intention. Hope you’re enjoying ‘Orenjii’ & we can’t wait to see you on tour soon.”
