Fans Speculate Lisa’s Victoria’s Secret Performance Was a Response to Lip-Syncing Accusations
After BlackPink terminated their individual contract with YG Entertainment, Lisa became an active solo member by continuously releasing new music products. In 2024, she released 3 singles: Rockstar, New Woman and Moonlit Floor .
Despite her huge achievements on music charts and being recognized with the Best Kpop award at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), Lisa still caused a lot of controversy such as not knowing how to compose, silly lyrics in the song, being accused of plagiarizing ideas and especially not being able to sing live.
The most controversial was when the youngest member of BlackPink was accused of lip-syncing during her performances at the 2024 VMAs and the Global Citizen Festival. She was also criticized for the same reason in the official performance video of her new song Moonlit Floor (updated on October 9).
Lisa and her management company have not directly responded to the above allegations. However, fans believe that the 1997-born female idol has a more convincing response.
On October 15, the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show returned after a long hiatus. In addition to the top angels and lingerie models, the event also featured famous performers. One of them was Lisa.
The Thai beauty turned the catwalk into a music stage with two hits Rockstar and Moonlit Floor .
After the show, fans shared videos of Lisa’s performances, pointing out signs that she actually sang live.
According to netizens, Lisa’s voice was a bit shaky when she started singing Moonlit Floor . The gentle intro also helped the audience hear the singer’s real voice clearly.
Video of Rockstar taken by onlookers at the scene shows the background vocals sounding clearer than Lisa’s live singing.
Fans believe that Lisa used her actions to quell negative rumors about her.
The audience commented: “Did you hear it?”, “Lisa is perfect, there is no word to criticize”, “Nothing can be more direct than this”, “Did you hear it? It was her voice destroying the stage”, “No need to explain to the haters. Let’s enjoy our amazing performance. No one can do it like her. She set the standard for the opening of this show and we are proud of her”, “It was like being in heaven?”, “Haters will still hate, but our Lisa is so classy”…
Many people commented that Lisa’s appearance helped the lingerie show attract more attention from the audience (more than 14.7 million views after 18 hours of showing on YouTube). In addition, the Asian girl somewhat overshadowed the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2024, which was criticized as the most boring ever. Not only Lisa’s voice, choreography, powerful catwalks and sexy appearance have all become popular trends on social networks.
After her success at the Victoria’s Secret show, Lisa is scheduled to join Rolling Stone magazine’s Musicians on Musicians program with Tyla on October 17 (Korean time).
