K-pop’s social butterfly continues to flaunt her unexpected friendships! Recently, Jennie (제니) from BLACKPINK delighted fans by joining Billie Eilish at a Spotify event in Seoul celebrating Billie’s latest album, “HIT ME HARD AND SOFT.” Jennie took on the role of interviewer, conducting the entire interview in English. The event was marked by a warm and friendly atmosphere, culminating in a successful listening session that earned applause from the audience.
Fans of both artists enjoyed a memorable evening, highlighted by their friendly banter. Billie even playfully “flirted” with Jennie, adding a light-hearted touch to the night. When Billie was asked to name her favorite anthem, Jennie leaned in and whispered, “BLACKPINK, maybe?” The two laughed and held hands as Billie went along with Jennie’s suggestion, playfully declaring, “Your upcoming solo album that you’re working on right now.” Jennie responded with a coy “wink wink,” reaffirming that her solo project was indeed in progress.
Later, Jennie posed another question to Billie about why all the track titles in her latest album are written in capital letters. Billie responded with a playful explanation, saying, “I’m just shouting. I’m just yelling, just yelling it in your face, you know. I just wanted to scream all the titles. I don’t know, it just works.” She hinted at deeper meanings behind the titles, adding, “There’re some meanings but it’s up to you guys to figure out.”
Billie expressed gratitude to Jennie for taking time out of her busy schedule to conduct the interview, praising her by saying, “You were so perfect. I love you Jennie. Thank you for doing this.” Jennie, in her characteristic teasing manner, replied, “You’re definitely interviewing me when my album comes out. It is happening!”
