Blackpink Jennie's comments clarifying her "lazy dancing" scandal are causing controversy.
On the 14th, Jennie appeared on British pop star Dua Lipa's podcast and talked about her performance stress. She stated it was her first time appearing on a podcast revealing her friendship with Dua Lipa.
She stated, "I kept getting injured during the performance, it was stressful. It was like, 'let's go' and then I would fall again and again. I didn't know how to control my body."

- [+1,226, -423] I seriously don't understand why she's popular. She has a choding body, can't sing, and her visuals aren't that great either..
- [+601, -116] Her mindset is so ridiculous. I don't even think she's aware how illogical she is. She needs to take some time and reflect on herself, learn from idols like BTS who continue to work hard and do their part no matter how high they climb. Does she think her teammates Rosé and Lisa don't have their own hardships they're dealing with? But you don't see them making mistake after mistake on stage? She keeps saying she was a trainee of 6 years, are those words that should be coming out the mouth of a professional? What the hell is that excuse??!
- [+291, -49] What rhythm? what dance? Every stage you look it's only her laziness that comes out, I don't see any professionalism from her at all!
- [+280, -25] This is exactly what happens when people earn a bit of fame and moneyㅋㅋ? Do you think she can go back to her roots and original mindset? Once you earn some fame your pride is sky high? When she hits rock-bottom and no one recognizes her overseas that's when she'll regain her rootsㅋ
- [+269, -4] That's why they say making money is hard.
- [+131, -2] If she's going to be a sloppy mess on stage the least they can do is offer cheap tickets? Blackpink concert tickets are expensive enough already so imagine a lazy performance at those prices. They're earning so much money given their status in the industry and that comes with its own set of responsibilities. It's wrong to expect sympathies and understanding from the public because "you have it hard.." If it's hard then don't do it, quit! It's not our responsibility to understand your laziness when you're the one enjoying all the fame and money cushions that come with it.
- [+76, -10] She can't control her body and mind but seems to be doing quite well controlling her dating prospects with men.. make it make sense.
- [+69, -47] Ugly.. Jisoo is prettier.
- [+58, -6] You guys know this is complete lies right? Just watch their concert clips.. Blackpink wear walker-type boots on stage.. not high heels. Her excuses that "she got injured from wearing high heels" are straight lies! Now that the contract renewal period is right around the corner she's just doing it lazily. She'll be going to HYBE after her contract is upㅎㅎㅎㅎ.
- [+53, -3] Then.. if it doesn't fit you, quit! Who's forcing you?? Why are you whining to us when you chose to be an idol to make ends meet?
- [+30, -5] We've seen her American drama debut already what more is there to say...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ all of this is your choice, you chose money~~~~she's an idol that lives on her image and had already made a lot of money, yet she still chose to take on that dirty role. This is how far she'll go.
- [+21, -4] I don't get it. Can't sing, can't dance, choding body, so-so visuals... why is she popular? And this is who 2NE1 was disbanded for? ㅠㅠ They're nowhere near 2NE1's talents or level. Can't even compete.
- [+15, -3] But quite good at running after men right..
