Lisa's (BLACKPINK) solo journey

Since leaving YG Entertainment after 10 years, Lalisa Manoban - the youngest member of the group BLACKPINK, has gone through a controversial career period. However, facing many questions from the public, she not only proved her personal ability but also made a strong impression in her solo activities, surprising many fans.

After BLACKPINK ended their "BORN PINK" world tour at the end of 2023, many people were concerned that Lisa would have difficulty standing on the international stage without the support of YG. Contrary to that thinking, Lisa's solo career has quickly flourished, with many outstanding activities and remarkable achievements. One of the important milestones was her consecutive release of three solo MVs in 2024: "ROCKSTAR", "New Woman" and "Moonlit Floor", of which "ROCKSTAR" brought her many notable records on digital music platforms.

Lisa also continued to make her mark at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), winning the "Best Kpop" category with the song "ROCKSTAR", becoming the first female Kpop solo artist to win this award twice in a row. This is no small achievement, demonstrating the international music industry's recognition of the Thai singer's talent.

Not only stopping at music, Lisa also appeared on the big screen for the first time when participating in the famous HBO series, "The White Lotus" season 3, scheduled to air in 2025. This series has won many prestigious awards such as 15 Emmy Awards and 2 Golden Globe Awards, Lisa's participation in the film shows the expansion of her influence in the acting field. In addition, she also organized a fan meeting on an Asian scale that will take place in November 2024, becoming the first member of BLACKPINK to hold such a large-scale exchange event.

However, fame also comes with pressure. During the release of her solo products, Lisa had to face a lot of criticism from the public. Her music video "ROCKSTAR" was accused of copyright infringement when Gabriel Moses - the director of Travis Scott's music video "FE!N", accused Lisa of copying his ideas and style. In addition, the online community also criticized Lisa for appropriating black culture in her music products. In the face of these accusations, Lisa and her team remained silent, not giving any official response.

Not only facing copyright controversy, Lisa was also suspected of lip-syncing during her performance at the 2024 VMAs and the 2024 Global Citizen Festival. At the VMAs, she performed two songs, "New Woman" and "ROCKSTAR", but was criticized by several international newspapers, including Billboard magazine, for her performance. In particular, Billboard rated Lisa's performance as the worst at the 2024 VMAs, causing her to face a lot of pressure from the public.

Then, at the Global Citizen Festival 2024, Lisa's performance of "Moonlit Floor" continued to face suspicions of lip-syncing. Many people believed that she did not sing live, but instead used a backtrack, causing the performance to not match the image on stage. This caused a stir in the online community, with many harsh criticisms. Some even called her the "lip-sync queen" and said that she was not sincere in her performances.

Despite this, Lisa has received protection from many fans who were present at the events. Some viewers have posted videos proving that she did not lip-sync and actually performed live. Notably, the lead singer of the band Sixpence None The Richer, who released the song "Kiss Me" that many believe was plagiarized by "Moonlit Floor", has spoken out to defend Lisa. He said that her song was just a new version and he was happy that his work was accepted by the younger generation.

Despite the struggles and controversies, there is no denying that Lisa is slowly making her mark on the international stage. Her upcoming appearance at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show will be a major turning point in her career, where all eyes will be on her. She needs to improve her skills and overcome criticism to deliver a perfect performance at this highly anticipated event.
