BLACKPINK’s Jennie sparks controversy after flashing fans on stage
BLACKPINK’s Jennie is facing backlash after a brief moment flashing fans during a recent live performance. The singer appeared to reveal a custom bikini-style top for a split second, instantly igniting heated reactions online.
This incident drew tons of comparisons to Kwon Eunbi’s viral “Waterbomb 2025” performance, which also sparked mixed opinions just weeks ago.
Jennie’s moment quickly went viral, with many praising her playful vibe but others criticizing the move.
Some netizens commented:
“If someone with a really curvy body wore that, people would’ve gone nuts and they would’ve been dragged for days.”
“Since when did showing your underwear become considered ‘cute’?”
“It just looks like she’s showing off some merch lol Jennie’s done way bolder performances than this, so this feels pretty tame… And judging by her expression, it really does seem playful.”
“I like it.”
“Kwon Eunbi gets hate, but Jennie’s called cute lol”
Others compared Jennie’s look to Eunbi’s sexy “Crazy In Love” cover during Waterbomb 2025 in Seoul, debating the level of appropriateness.
Comments include:
“Neither Waterbomb nor this outfit is that revealing.”
“I think it’s cute…? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“It’s gone from ‘cute-sexy’ to just ‘cute’ nowㅋㅋㅋㅋ”
“I don’t get why people are hating on Waterbomb or Jennie. Is being attractive some kind of hijab now??”
“It’s way more wholesome than what Kwon Eunbi wore, so what’s the issue?”
Defenders stepped in, calling for the idols to be left alone.
”Jeez, just leave both Kwon Eunbi and Jennie alone.”
“What exactly was so inappropriate about Kwon Eunbi? She was at a 19+ Waterbomb event, wore a short-sleeve shirt over a bikini top, and denim shorts on the bottom.”
“Comments like yours are the real problem. Why are you dragging other idols into this?”
“It’s not like she was shaking her chest or twerking—at this level, it’s just cute.”
The debate over sexy performances and idol self-expression continues to divide netizens. Monitoring the situation as fans and critics voice strong opinions.
