BLACKPINK’s Jennie Sparks Backlash Over “Male-Centered” Behavior
BLACKPINK’s Jennie is facing backlash again, this time over a clip showing her interaction with her stylist at a recent Chanel event.
The video, taken during an off-camera moment, shows Jennie’s male stylist adjusting the neckline of her dress. Jennie was wearing a plunging neckline outfit that caught attention at the event.
The controversy began when some netizens criticized Jennie for allowing a man to touch her chest despite female staff being nearby. This sparked harsh comments, with some labeling her a “pick me” and accusing her of being “male centered” rather than a “girls girl.”
“Pick me final boss.” — @cherrryykatycee
“it makes sense cause she’s so male centered, not a ‘girls girl.'” — @tetehyungist
“Pick me for a reason.” — @Lalisamano327
Fans quickly reacted to defend Jennie, pointing out that the stylist was simply doing his job and nothing inappropriate happened. They also highlighted the misogyny behind the backlash.
“Omg wth is wrong with yall? There is literally NOTHING wrong with this video. If you see anything wrong with her STYLIST fixing her clothes for her thats a you problem…im not even a blink but the things yall are saying in the quotes are horrible omg” — @triviajustdanc
“because it’s the stylist job to fix her clothes not anyone else” — @matzvlogs
“Hes her gay stylist you stupid fuck and who cares if its a man if she is comfortable with it then its none of your fucking business. You think that if a woman did it there would be any difference??” — @Darxies
“ppl in the qrts acting like jennie kill their mama is genuinely insane. This is why we never make it out of the patriarchy” — @Janeejayyy
