'Is that Jessica Alba?' KATSEYE's teaser for new single 'Gabriela' has EYEKONS doing a double take

Time of India19-06-2025
KATSEYE is back - and this time, they're turning up the heat. The global sensation girl group under HYBE America has sent the internet into overdrive with the teaser for their new single Gabriela. Released ahead of their comeback, the 24-second teaser released by KATSEYE oozes vintage glamour, fiery Latin vibes, and cinematic drama, capturing the essence of a 90s telenovela. Daniela, Lara, Manon, Megan, Sophia, and Yoonchae each command the screen with captivating solo shots — serving elegance, attitude, and undeniable star power.
Latin heat meets girl power
Singing the provocative line "Hands off Gabriela," the teaser sets the tone for a sultry, high-stakes narrative. With Daniela - the group's fierce Mexican-American member - leading the charge, the song surely promises a bold sonic blend that embraces Latin flair while pushing the boundaries of K-pop storytelling.
Is that Jessica Alba?
Just when fans thought it couldn't get more iconic, Jessica Alba, the Hollywood superstar, shows up out of the blue. Alba's cameo, in which she smirks at the camera before disappearing from view, gives 'Gabriela' a more cinematic charm and immediately distinguishes it from other K-pop teasers alike.
EYEKONS do a double take
Soon after the teaser dropped, the fandom called EYEKONS could not believe their eyes. First it was to talk about how good the girls sounded and the teaser looked so pretty. But seeing Jessica Alba on screen was the icing on the cake as all just asked one question online - 'Is that Jessica Alba?'
