Blackpink, are they the 21st century's pretentious aristocrates?

YG again? Manners maketh man


"Universal star" BlackPink in a controversy again, let's not forget YG


BlackPink Jennie, leisurely releases picture "No apology for tardiness"


BlackPink tardiness controversy, let's not apologize, but let's post on IG

BlackPink Jennie, no apology over tardiness --> constantly updates IG "Controversial"


"Unapologetic" BlackPink, you have to love our power trip too


"NO to apology, YES to SNS" BlackPink Jennie, showing off whereabouts


Event's related person "The truth behind BlackPink's tardiness... Wonder why they said it's not"




It's wasn't even an event where you had a 1st part and 2nd part, but an open event

Those are BlackPink's fans claims

1. BlackPink were supposed to only appear on the second half = false

They were swearing at the fact that the journalists were being trash
They were claiming that BlackPink had to arrive at 12:30 for the second part, but the fact was that they were supposed to arrive at 11:55



The fans claimed that Adidas were the ones who organized a part 1 part 2 event = false
That's only the way they promoted the event saying that tehre were 2 events, not 2 parts

2. The fans claimed that Beckham was the one who came earlier so he waited for them = false


The event's representative mentioned "This time, the event was not separated as part 1 part 2. It's one event where you had to line up first come first serve from the morning

After BlackPink arrived late, the event organizers went to call Beckham again so they couldn't go on stage right away. Because Beckham was already off stage it took time to call him back on stage





The fans used those pictures to insist that they arrived earlier and were in their waiting area to wait for Beckham
but because BlackPink arrived late, they had to go get Beckham who was in his waiting area and make him come on stage again, so this is why they were waiting there

They said that they weren't late and proved there by saying that at 11:27, the manager was there



But BlackPink's fans officially saw BlackPink after 12PM


The fans are still insisting that since their event was at 12:30 and they arrived at 12:15, they weren't technically late
However, it's also a fact that the fans have faked about the time, but journalists since then have kept on posting proofs that they were being late


Those are what the commoners who attended the event had to say:
1. BlackPink was late so the event was postponed
2. The organizers kept apologizing to the journalists
3. The other journalists who had events to attend to boycotted and left the event

At first, BP arrived late, when BP arrived, Beckham didn't come up so the pissed off journalists boycotted the event and leftㅋㅋ



It's supposed to be Adidas' 70th anniversary event, but it was such a fail. For 30 minutes, nobody came on stageㅋ

(more tweets in original post)

The pissed off journalists kept releasing articles


"BlackPink late, Beckham leaving the event"


"David Beckham "BlackPink stops the event because BlackPink is late"
"BlackPink's tardiness leaves the event empty"
"Beckham and the fans waiting for BlackPink... In the end, the event was empty"


"World star Beckham waiting for BlackPink for over 20 minutes!"
"BlackPink's tardiness, messed up David Beckham's schedule"
"David Beckham, for the fans because of BlackPink's tardiness~"


"David Beckham "Waited for BlackPink for 20 minutes"
"David Beckham leaves for a bit due to BlackPink's tardiness"

They need to fucking apologize even if YG reprimands them for it.

why cant their company just release a statement to clarify the situation?
Because that's the smart thing to do
Not the YG thing to do

The girls should avoid posting in this situation, it's best to lay low.

Once you have the media against you, anything is open season
They're the only deadass YG group that hasn't committed a crime or aided in someone else's criminal activity and they're being treated like this wtf. I don't even think iKon got this many articles

Not surprised that YG hasn't released a statement yet. How pathetic.

I can't even imagine how the ladies of Blackpink feel.

That's all I can think of in this situation. I'm past caring about the event itself, screw the media (because even if an apology is warranted and the journalists' frustrations in that instance and during that event are understandable and justified, this pile-on over tardiness/the lack of respect implied by such tardiness/the inconvenience of said tardiness...it's just generating hate and wagging tongues for people who already dislike BP or just dislike YG(E) enough to crap on BP), and screw YGE for going this long without issuing an apology/clarification.

Sigh. SIGH. GUST. GALE.

Ikon never pissed off reporters + in terms of gp recognition Blackpink is more known. Ikon also had a dating scandal like Jennie but which one was covered more?
