Jennie Matches Blackpink — And Beats All Of Her Bandmates

Jennie Matches Blackpink — And Beats All Of Her Bandmates

Forbes20-03-2025

Jennie is no stranger to the upper reaches of the Billboard charts. As a member of Blackpink, she's landed many hits, and helped redefine K-pop's presence on the international stage. Now, as a soloist, she's proving she can achieve just as much success without her bandmates – especially when looking at the global rankings.
This week, the superstar collects another major worldwide win as fans rush to her first album, Ruby. As she does so, she not only matches her group's impressive record, but also beats her bandmates in one important manner.
'Like Jennie,' one of the latest singles from Jennie's debut solo album Ruby, opens at No. 5 on the Billboard Global 200. The track instantly becomes her fourth top 10 hit on the tally, which measures the most-consumed songs all around the world, based on both streaming performance and sales.
With her fourth top 10 hit on the Billboard Global 200, Jennie now stands on equal footing with Blackpink. The group has also managed a quartet of appearances inside the highest tier of the ranking.
Two of those smashes even reached No. 1. Back in 2022, Blackpink topped the list twice in short order, with 'Pink Venom' and 'Shut Down,' both singles from its sophomore album Born Pink. Prior to that successful run, 'Love Sick Girls' climbed to No. 2 in 2020, and that same year, 'Ice Cream' with Selena Gomez peaked at No. 8.
Before 'Like Jennie' arrived, Jennie was in a tie with fellow Blackpink singer Lisa for the most top 10 hits among the band's soloists. Both musicians had collected three placements inside the competitive region. That changes this week, as Jennie now claims the lead. Meanwhile, fellow member Rosé has scored two top 10s on the Billboard Global 200, while Jisoo has managed just one so far.
Jennie's journey as a solo star on this worldwide list began in October 2023, when she first cracked the top 10 on the Billboard Global 200. She earned her first planet-spanning giant with 'You & Me,' which climbed to No. 7. Shortly after that win, she landed her second top 10 appearance alongside The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp on 'One of the Girls,' which peaked at No. 10.
Her biggest showing yet came just a few months ago. 'Mantra,' the lead single from Ruby, soared to No. 3.

Bonnaroo 2025 Canceled Due to Severe Weather: ‘We Are Beyond Gutted'

After issuing an evacuation notice to attendees earlier Friday (June 13), the remainder of the 2025 Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival has now been canceled due to severe weather. The Manchester, Tennessee, festival shared the news on social media around 7:30 p.m. local time Friday, saying that the updated forecast was showing unsustainable conditions for on-site campers as heavy thunderstorms ripped through the area. More from Billboard Bonnaroo Tells Attendees to Evacuate As Severe Weather Approaches Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Head to Florida for Stanley Cup Final Twenty One Pilots Drop New Single, 'The Contract,' Detail North American Tour Dates 'Today, the National Weather Service provided us with an updated forecast with significant and steady precipitation that will produce deteriorating camping and egress conditions in the coming days,' the statement reads. 'We are beyond gutted, but we must make the safest decision and cancel the remainder of Bonnaroo. We are going to make things right with you, and you will find refund information at the end of this message, but let's start with the next steps.' The message goes on to suggest that any campers whose sites are in decent shape or who are safely inside an RV consider camping overnight to prioritize evacuating those festivalgoers in the roughest situations. 'The number one thing we need from the Bonnaroo community is patience,' the message reads. 'Some of your fellow campers' sites are in rough shape. The rain has settled in areas and made certain parts of Outeroo difficult to manage. We'd like to prioritize getting those folks as well as those with accessibility needs off The Farm as soon as possible this evening. To do this, we ask that if your campsite is in good shape or if you're in an RV or pre-pitched accommodation, please consider spending the night with us and we'll start working to get you out of here safely tomorrow.' The festival wrapped its message by reiterating how 'crushed' organizers are to make this decision. 'We have put our hearts and souls into making this weekend the most special one of the year, and cannot express how crushed we are to have to make this decision. Thank you in advance for your patience, your positivity and your unfailing Bonnaroovian spirit.' As promised, the post ends with refund details, spelling out what tickets and parking passes will be refunded in full and what will be returned in part since Thursday's day 1 went off without a hitch. Find the full refund details in the second slide below: Bonnaroo kicked off Thursday with performances from Luke Combs, Dom Dolla, Insane Clown Posse and Rebecca Black. Friday night's headliners were scheduled to be Tyler, The Creator, John Summit and Glass Animals; Saturday's lineup was led by Olivia Rodrigo, Avril Lavigne and Justice; and Sunday would have wrapped up with Hozier, Vampire Weekend and Queens of the Stone Age.

Will Smith Celebrates All the ‘Pretty Girls' With New Single and Music Video

Will Smith has returned with his new song 'Pretty Girls,' as well as an accompanying music video released on Friday (June 13). The video opens with Smith in the therapist's office, describing an ongoing issue he's having and how he feels like he's losing control. The problem then reveals itself to be enjoying beautiful women, as he raps celebratory bars about pretty girls and 'BBLs.'

The new track comes after Smith returned with his new album Based on a True Story on March 28. He also dropped off a Lyrical Lemonade freestyle where he proclaimed himself the 'Lionel Messi' of hip-hop. While it's clear music is his main focus at the moment, the Oscar winner recently said on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast he might squeeze in another Men in Black soon. 'I told myself I was done with sequels. I was like, 'I've made enough sequels. I got some new things I want to make,'' he said. 'Literally this morning, an hour before I came down here, they just threw the bag for another Men in Black. I was like, 'Ah, I'm supposed to be going on tour this summer.'' Smith said he'd likely shoot the film once he's done with his European tour, which kicks off on June 25. Check out the new video for Will Smith's 'Pretty Girls' below.

Donna Kelce, Monet X Change, Eric Nam & More Join ‘The Traitors' Season 4 Cast

Peacock revealed the cast for the fourth season of The Traitors on Friday (June 13), including Donna Kelce, Monet X Change, Eric Nam and more. In a video posted to social media, host Alan Cumming unveiled the cast by deliciously teasing, 'Ah, dear me … what treachery awaits us this season? The fates whisper of betrayal. Backstabbing. And the occasional dagger in the dark. Let us see whose murderous destinies are forever entwined in my castle walls: the cards never lie. People on the other hand? Constantly.' More from Billboard Bob the Drag Queen Is Not Sorry for His Antics on 'The Traitors' Season 3: 'Move On' Beach Boys' 2023 'Grammy Salute' Special to Re-Air After Brian Wilson's Death Jonas Brothers, Eric Church, Keke Palmer & More Performers Announced for 'Macy's 4th of July Fireworks' Special The hit reality show will be Mama Kelce's first TV appearance after she starred in a pair of Hallmark Channel holiday movies in 2024. Meanwhile, Monet X Change will be following in the well-heeled footsteps of fellow RuPaul's Drag Race winner Bob the Drag Queen, who also happens to be his co-host on their popular Sibling Rivalry podcast, and Nam becomes the first K-pop idol to compete on the series. After (spoiler alert!) being the very first contestant in the castle murdered by Bob and the rest of the Traitors last season, Dorinda Medley will also get a much-deserved second shot to play the game, joining fellow Bravolebrities Lisa Rinna, Candiace Dillard Bassett, Porsha Williams and Caroline Stanbury of the Real Housewives franchise and Top Chef winner-turned-host Kristen Kish. Of course, there are plenty of other competition show alumni as well, which is sure to set up the now-signature 'Gamers vs. Housewives' rivalry in the castle. Gamers to watch out for amid the lochs and highlands this season include Survivor stars Rob Cesternino, Yam Yam Arocho and Natalie Anderson, as well as Big Brother's Tiffany Mitchell and Ian Terry. Meanwhile, Bachelor Nation alum Colton Underwood and Stephen Colletti of Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and One Tree Hill fame are both obvious contenders to fill the hunky role in the castle established by Peter Weber and Dylan Efron in past seasons. And Olympic figure skaters Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir will add a dose of athleticism to the show's endurance-testing physical challenges along with Mark Ballas of Dancing With the Stars. Other famous faces rounding out the season 4 cast include actor Michael Rapaport, comedian Ron Funches and Rob Rausch and Maura Higgins of Love Island. While a release date for the upcoming season of The Traitors has yet to be announced, expect the murders, banishments and parade of tartan to begin imminently as the 23 contestants descend on Ardross Castle in the Scottish Highlands. Watch Cumming's full season 4 cast reveal along with a first look at The Traitors' famous wall of portraits for the new season below.
