BLACKPINK’s Jennie and BTS’s V reignite dating rumors with Paris sighting controversy
BLACKPINK’s Jennie and BTS’s V are back at the center of dating rumors after a controversial video surfaced. The clip shows the alleged couple holding hands in Paris, igniting fan debate and internet frenzy.
The drama started in 2022, when a user named Gurumiharibo leaked photos claiming Jennie and V were vacationing together and even inside V’s apartment. Many pushed back, accusing the images of being photoshopped.
The biggest stir came from the Paris sighting. Photographer Amar Taoualit, based in Paris, claimed he spotted the duo out on a date. Taoualit’s video included matching outfits to the day’s news and sparked huge attention.
Taoualit is now facing backlash for openly admitting plans to “catch” V with Jennie again.

Fans are outraged over what they call stalking behavior. Many demand HYBE take action against Taoualit, some even pushing for legal consequences.
“God hybe needs to do something about this” — fan callout on Twitter
“please take this seriously so they can be sued and serve jail time ! use this email template right now” — another fan urging HYBE
V was in Paris recently for Fashion Week, representing Celine. His movements were heavily documented by paparazzi, including Taoualit.
The controversy gained traction as fans rally to protect V from relentless paparazzi and shipping-driven invasion of privacy.
The situation remains tense, with fans monitoring Taoualit’s social media and demanding stronger protections for both idols.
