Recently, Rose (Blackpink) attended Paris Fashion Week as a global ambassador for the Saint Laurent brand.
At the show, as the top ambassador of the French fashion house, the Blackpink singer of course still sat in the front row with many international stars.
However, a video that went viral on social media, which was said to be a moment Rose was ignored by other celebrities, caused a stir.
In the video, Hailey Bieber, Zoe Kravitz, Charli XCX and Rose sit next to each other. But when the three European and American stars gathered to chat, Rose seemed unable to participate in the conversation and sat at a disadvantage, separated.
The incident became more tense when Charli XCX shared a series of photos at the show. In a photo of the four, Rose sat on the edge and was not even given a flashlight like the other three.
Many netizens expressed their anger in Charli XCX's post, criticizing the British artist for deliberately ignoring and disrespecting the Kpop star. Some opinions pointed out that Charli XCX could have chosen a more beautiful photo but decided to post an unattractive moment with Rose on social media.
However, other fans said that it is impossible to rely on a few second photo or video to assess the actual situation. In other videos, Charli XCX and Rose are still seen talking together and taking intimate photos.
Previously, the two artists also had a good relationship because they both signed a contract with Atlantic Records. In May, Rose went to see Charli XCX's concert and caused a storm on the internet with a vibrant choreography on the big screen. Charli XCX later shared a close photo with Rose backstage.
On the other hand, for Rose and Hailey Bieber, because they are both "goddesses" of Saint Laurent, they attended many events together and had a good relationship.
Netizens believe that fans who are too critical of other artists can affect Rose's relationship with international stars.
