On the morning of September 18, Vogue Korea released the latest photo series in which Lisa ( BLACKPINK) collaborated with the luxury brand Louis Vuitton, for which she is an ambassador. Notably, she shared some interesting things in an exclusive interview with Korea's leading fashion magazine.

Specifically, sharing about her first solo music product since founding her own company LLOUD - ROCKSTAR, Lisa laughed when mentioning a "secret" that no one knows: "My tanned skin was natural when I filmed The White Lotus in Thailand".

Lisa's revelation immediately made fans suspect that she was responding to the skin tanning and "cultural appropriation" suspicions that had caused her to be criticized when promoting the MV ROCKSTAR.

Previously, when releasing the first images to promote the MV ROCKSTAR, Lisa received fierce criticism when a part of the online community accused her of appropriating black culture, denying her Asian idol roots because she appeared with a "blackened" image of herself.

However, with Lisa's latest sharing, it can be seen that appearing with tanned skin comes from the reason her skin has clearly "darkened" when continuously filming outdoors under the harsh weather of her home country Thailand.

Not long before, Lisa was also said to have implicitly responded to the accusation of plagiarism in the MV ROCKSTAR. Specifically, at the time the MV ROCKSTAR was aired, director Gabriel Moses accused Lisa of plagiarism when comparing a scene in Travis Scott's MV FE!N, which he directed, with Lisa's ROCKSTAR.

However, the online community pointed out that Travis Scott's MV FE!N is not the only product that has a similar scene. Many people claim that Kendrick Lamar's MV HUMBLE is the music product that "gave birth" to the scene with the effect of many characters appearing in one frame. Accordingly, MV HUMBLE was released in March 2017 and MV FE!N was released in March 2024.

The director of the MV New Woman - Lisa's second solo product in 2024 is also Dave Meyer - the director of the MV HUMBLE. The online community believes that this is Lisa's way of responding to the plagiarism accusations that have caused a stir recently.

In addition to the above controversy, recently, Lisa's private life was also exposed in the movie 'Emily in Paris'.

Accordingly, in part 4 of Emily in Paris, Mindy - the best friend of the female lead Emily - is played by Ashley Park. She is an Asian singer living in Paris (France) and is dating Nicolas, the son/heir of the luxury goods company JVMA.

Although this is a popular plot, audiences think it is similar to Lisa, because the female idol is dating Frédéric Arnault, heir to the world-famous luxury goods group LVMH.

There are many other coincidences that make viewers sure that this character is inspired by the personal life of the Thai beauty. In episode 8, the character Mindy becomes a dancer, performing at the Crazy Horse cabaret in Paris.

Last year, Lisa caused a stir when she performed five nights at the venue, creating a heated debate because Crazy Horse is famous for its strip shows.

The actress, born in 1991, said she was nervous and struggled when filming sensitive scenes. She described being topless as "every actress's worst nightmare".

"We have this recurring memory of being on stage, not knowing what you're doing in your underwear. And that's really what I was going through, but surrounded by the most beautiful dancers in the world around me. It was nerve-wracking and difficult to do. Without my choreographer Kyle Hanagami and my crew by my side, I don't think I would have made it through," Ashley Park shared.

However, Park said she was proud of the scene and described it as an acting experience she will never forget.

Another coincidence is that Mindy was a judge on a music competition in China. Lisa was also a consultant on the survival show Youth With You season 2 and 3 in the country of a billion people.

There are many consecutive connections with BlackPink members, the audience believes that this is not a coincidence. Some viewers have provided evidence that LVMH even participated in the production of the fourth season of the series by sponsoring many actors.
