Despite the bad weather on the second day of the concert in New Jersey (USA), BLACKPINK still "burned" themselves out in the heavy rain.
BLACKPINK has completed the final leg of their Born Pink tour in major stadiums across the United States. The group kicked off in New Jersey this month and will hold large-scale performances in Las Vegas on August 18, San Francisco on August 22, and Los Angeles on August 26.
Foreign media reported that BLACKPINK dyed New York and New Jersey pink, at least 100,000 people attended the YG girls' concert held in New Jersey on August 12 and 13.
At the same time, the BLACKPINK pop-up store "Bon Pink Pop-up Experience in New York City" opened in Chelsea, Manhattan, New York, USA. Ezekiel Lazanski (10 years old), an elementary school student, excitedly shared with the media that he had been waiting for the concert since May.
When superstars hold concerts, consumption will explode and boost the local economy , and this "concert economy" effect has also been confirmed in BLACKPINK's world tour.
Many celebrities attended BLACKPINK's concert, such as NFL superstar Tom Brady and Ashley from Ladies Code, on the first day. The image of American football star Tom Brady coming to the concert with his daughter Vivien Leigh also became a hot topic. Song Yuqi, Minnie, and Miyeon from girl group (G)I-DLE attended the second night together.
On the second night of the show, the members announced that the show might have to stop due to bad weather. Bad weather conditions were predicted in New Jersey as the area had been experiencing storms for most of the week. Furthermore, Metlife is an outdoor stadium, so it was inevitable that BLACKPINK’s performance would be affected to some extent. Fortunately, BLACKPINK successfully finished the show despite the pouring rain.
Previously, BLACKPINK's shows in Bangkok (Thailand) and Hanoi (Vietnam) on the second day both had rain but not as heavy as in the US. The girls will perform more on the main stage and move less to the side stages.
Having already impressed netizens with her positive attitude in the heavy rain, Jennie also attracted attention with a professional moment.
During her performance of Pretty Savage, Jennie's microphone malfunctioned, forcing her to come down from the stage to fix the problem. The idol quickly returned to the stage and completed the choreography.
In addition, during the performance, the railing of Jennie's area almost collapsed. Jennie originally wanted to interact with fans in the audience, but unexpectedly the railing of the raised platform was not fixed yet. Fortunately, there was no danger.
Netizens also commented that the company was careless in the staging, not ensuring the safety of the artists. "The stage was set up so carelessly, loosely and not sturdy at all, luckily Jennie didn't lean her body against the railing", "Heart-stopping. If Jennie hadn't discovered it in time, who knows what would have happened. Please take responsibility, YG"... - BLACKPINK fans criticized the way the management company YG worked.
