Luxury Labels Speculated to Be 'Abandoning' BLACKPINK Lisa Following the 'Crazy Horse' Fiasco
In the wake of BLACKPINK Lisa's controversial "Crazy Horse" performance, the K-pop sensation is reportedly facing repercussions that extend beyond the entertainment industry.
Recent Korean media reports have shed light on the growing distance between luxury brands and the idol, indicating that her association with the "Crazy Horse" scandal may be a significant factor.
Luxury Brands Quietly Distancing Themselves from BLACKPINK Lisa?
A Korean news outlet published an article detailing how designer brands that had previously collaborated with Lisa have been discreetly removing images featuring the idol. Notably, the CEO of BVLGARI, was found to have deleted pictures featuring himself alongside Lisa.
This move, along with the removal of images featuring the idol, is speculated to be influenced by the sentiments of the Chinese market, where Lisa has garnered immense popularity.
The core of this backlash revolves around Lisa's burlesque performance at "Crazy Horse," which sparked controversy and ignited strong reactions, particularly in China.
With the Chinese market constituting over 20% of the international luxury goods sales, it appears that luxury brands are reacting to the potential ramifications on their bottom line by distancing themselves from the embattled K-pop star.
Allegations of luxury brands distancing themselves from Lisa are intriguing; however, it's essential to consider alternative factors at play.
Meanwhile, beyond her association with luxury brands, Lisa has also faced a significant development on her Chinese social media front.
Her Weibo account, a platform widely used by celebrities to connect with Chinese fans, was reportedly terminated in the aftermath of the "Crazy Horse" performance. This move underscores the extent of the controversy and the reactions it has triggered.
