Following the announcement that NewJeans Danielle is Celine's newest global ambassador, BLINKs are wondering what this means for BLACKPINK Lisa.

What Does NewJeans Danielle Signing With Celine Mean for BLACKPINK Lisa?

Speculation has grown that CELINE has parted ways with Lisa, who has been their global ambassador since 2020.

Recently, Lisa garnered attention by attending the 2024 F/W Louis Vuitton show, despite being associated with Celine.

Although Celine and Louis Vuitton are both brands under the LVMH group, they are distinct and separate entities. This led to speculation about the separation between Celine and Lisa.

It was also noted that prior to working with Celine, Danielle was the global brand ambassador for Burberry. Despite that, she was noticeably absent from Burberry's campaigns and did not attend their fashion shows. Many wonder if she chose to end her brand deal with Burberry after just a year to work with Celine because it reaped bigger incentives for her.
