Blackpink’s Lisa says she turned to acting ‘to find inspiration’

Lisa also feels she’s remained authentic to herself, regardless of her fame and success. Asked to compare her on-stage persona to her real-life self, Lisa explained: “I’m not trying to pretend that I’m someone else. It’s just me, plus a little more confidence.” In 2025, Lisa admitted that she feels proud of what she has accomplished with Blackpink. She told fashion magazine Elle: “When I’m onstage [with Blackpink], I share my energy with my members. If she gives 100, I’ll give 120. We can feel each other. And I love that energy.” Lisa has focused on her solo material in recent times, but she also remains committed to the girl group. She explained: “Of course, we’re continuing, for sure. “We’re so proud of Blackpink, and I love Blackpink. It is not just because of our fans, it’s for ourselves. There was no doubt. This is our life.” Lisa’s experience as a solo artiste has helped her to become more decisive in recent years, too. Lisa, who released her debut album Lalisa back in 2021, shared: …

At face value, she is like any other 29-year-old. As she sits on the precipice of 30, she’s going through that emotional tug-of-war that comes with both the self-reflection of growing older and the stubborn eagerness of youth. “Sometimes when you’re doing the things that [you’ve done] for more than 10 years, you feel like you should find new things to find inspiration,” Manobal says of venturing into acting. After wrapping the latest Blackpink tour in January, she spent February filming her first movie, Tygo, a spin-off film in the Extraction franchise set in South Korea, but it all started with The White Lotus. She was a shoo-in for the type of stunt casting the show is known for. The third season was to film in Thailand, her home country, and she was both famous enough to be considered yet an incredibly unexpected choice. When she heard about the show, she decided to send a tape. “She was amazing in the audition,” Bernad says. Manobal doesn’t remember it that way. “It was really bad,” she …

The ladies of Blackpink hit the Met Gala red carpet Monday, marking the first time all four women attended fashion’s biggest night the same year. In the decade since Blackpink burst onto the scene, the group — comprised of members Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa and Rosé — has become a staple in the world of fashion. Each woman has a slew of luxury brand ambassadorships to their name. Lisa, 29, served as a member of the 2026 Met Gala host committee, sporting the most avant-garde look of the night.

No surprise there, the “Apt” singer has been an ambassador for the luxury fashion house for quite some time now. The custom gown was designed by the brand’s …
