BLACKPINK’s Jennie is facing major backlash online for “lazy” performances.

The controversy began with viral clips showing Jennie’s low energy on stage, including footage from recent concerts in Taiwan.

Fans and viewers called out her lack of effort compared to the other members. Jennie’s apparent “poor condition” sparked heated debates about her professionalism.

One TikTok creator with over 74,000 likes slammed Jennie for “rage baiting” fans by standing still and not fully performing live.

Jennie Kim from BLACKPINK on the other hand. I have never seen an idol with a more tragic historical performance record. And this isn’t somebody who just got into the game. This is an idol who supposedly made it to the top already. What is her fcking problem. Because it’s emabrassing. Like the other three girls are giving it their best, they are dancing, they are putting in the work and she’s just fcking standing there.

Like she doesn’t respect you at all. She doesn’t even do her job for you guys. That’s messed up.

Fans chimed in saying the hate sometimes feels forced but agreed the criticism is valid. Many feel Jennie seems unprofessional and clearly “doesn’t care” when on stage.

Another popular creator did a satirical skit imagining a conversation between BLINKs and Jennie, going viral with near 30,000 likes.

BLINKs: Hey Jennie, we’re BLINKs and we’re such huge fans, but it’s getting kind of hard to defend you, so we were wondering if you could just give us anything at all.

Jennie: No

BLINKs: I don’t know if you think this is cute but you’re making the other members look bad because they’re trying really hard to put on a good performance and when you don’t give us anything at all, it makes the overall group look bad.
