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 at major stadiums across the US. The group began their tour in New Jersey this month and will hold large-scale performances in Las Vegas on August 18th, San Francisco on August 22nd, and Los Angeles on August 26th.
Foreign media reported that BLACKPINK turned New York and New Jersey pink, with at least 100,000 people attending the YG girls' concert in New Jersey on August 12th and 13th.
Meanwhile, 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 explodes and boosts the local economy ; this "concert economy" effect has also been confirmed in BLACKPINK's world tour.
Many celebrities attended BLACKPINK's concert, including NFL superstar Tom Brady and Ashley of Ladies Code, who were present on the first night. Images of American football star Tom Brady attending the show with his daughter Vivien Leigh also became a hot topic. Song Yuqi, Minnie and Miyeon of the girl group (G)I-DLE also performed together on the second night.
On the second night's stage, the members announced that the show might have to be stopped due to bad weather. Unfavorable weather conditions in New Jersey had been anticipated, with the area experiencing thunderstorms for almost a week. Furthermore, Metlife is an outdoor stadium, so it was inevitable that BLACKPINK's performances would be somewhat affected. Fortunately, BLACKPINK successfully concluded their performance despite the torrential rain.
Previously, BLACKPINK's concerts in Bangkok (Thailand) and Hanoi (Vietnam) on the second day both experienced rain, but not as heavy as in the US. The girls will perform more on the main stage and move less to the extended side stages.
Having already impressed netizens with her positive attitude in heavy rain, Jennie further drew attention with a moment of professionalism.
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 platform was not fixed yet. Fortunately, no danger occurred.
Netizens also commented that the company was careless in the staging, not ensuring the safety of the artists. "The stage was built so carelessly, loosely and not sturdy at all, luckily Jennie did not lean her body on the railing", "Heart-stopping. If Jennie had not discovered it in time, I don't know what would have happened. Please take responsibility, YG"... - BLACKPINK fans criticized the way the management company YG worked.
