Lisa was criticized for lip-syncing and was called a K-flop. Rosé immediately took action.

Lisa's solo performance at the 2024 MTV VMAs unexpectedly received mixed reviews. The reason for this was because some people thought that the female idol lip-synced, which left them feeling extremely disappointed.

On September 12, the 2024 MTV VMAs Awards officially took place in New York, (USA) with the attention of global fans. Besides the famous names of the world music industry, Lisa is a rare Kpop star to attend the event as a solo artist.

Appearing in this year's season, BLACKPINK's youngest member not only extended her list of achievements with the prestigious Best Kpop trophy but also "treated" fans around the world to an extremely satisfying performance with two recently released hits, ROCKSTAR and New Woman.

Despite high expectations due to her reputation as a standout performer in BLACKPINK, Lisa's performance fell short of expectations. Critics and many social media users expressed disappointment in her, according to Allkpop.

Not stopping there, the New York Post harshly criticized the Thai-born female idol's performance, calling it a " K-flop" and listing her among the worst performers of the awards night.

"After being introduced by Paris Hilton - who added her catchphrase "That's hot" - Lisa was not that "hot" at all. The K-pop singer was even worse when she performed with an army of dancers who couldn't save her from being cheesy, leaving us all wondering how she was invited" - New York Post commented on the performance of BLACKPINK's youngest member.

Billboard then ranked all 16 performances from the night, from "worst to best." Lisa was at the bottom of the list, calling it "a failed attempt."

On the X platform (Twitter), criticism of the Thai beauty for lip-syncing throughout her performance at the 2024 MTV VMAs also began to appear. A series of posts related to this issue quickly attracted a huge number of interactions and discussions.

However, besides the "stone-throwing" comments, a group of neutral fans believe that Lisa sang over the song and did not lip-sync the entire song. Because they still realized that the microphone was on and she used her real voice for the performance, especially at the c.limax.

Not only that, to clear the name of the female idol, the audience at the a.ward ceremony also posted a fancam clip recording her performance on stage live at the scene.

In the shared clip, it is easy to see that Lisa's live voice overlaps the backtrack. Especially in segments such as moving between rows of seats or ending the intro of the song ROCKSTAR, the clear breathing of the 1997-born singer was caught by the microphone, showing that she was trying to sing with her real voice during her performance.

Notably, in the live clip posted by MTV itself, not only the audience but also the artists participating in the event enthusiastically responded to Lisa's performance. This further strengthens the evidence that the female singer sang live and the backtrack sound was adjusted to be louder due to the program's sound technology, not her fault.

While the controversy over the lip-syncing of the Thai beauty at this year's MTV VMAs has not yet come to an e.nd, Rosé suddenly made a move related to the above performance. Specifically, on her personal Instagram story, BLACKPINK's main vocalist posted a picture of Lisa shining on the stage of the Awards Ceremony.

Accompanying the caption is: "She's so hot". This action of the "Australian rose" is like a word of encouragement sent to her close friend in the middle of the drama storm. At the same time, it shows that, despite being very busy with her personal schedule, she still follows the activities of BLACKPINK members, including Lisa.
