Blackpink's Rosé longs to be 'anonymous'
Blackpink star Rosé dreams of "being anonymous" because it would give her more "freedom". The 28-year-old pop singer shot to international fame with the girl group back in 2016, but she goes to great lengths to disguise herself - even dressing up like an old woman so she could walk the streets without being recognised - and Rose admits she hates having to give up her independence because of her job. She told Dazed magazine: "What does freedom look like to me? Freedom means being anonymous." Recalling her experience using prosthetics to disguise herself, she insisted she won't go to such extreme lengths again , adding: "It was really, really intense. I don't think I'll ever do that again." However, when asked if she would ever consider going into acting in a bid to become another person temporarily, she replied: "Wow, yes, I think that would be incredible in that sense ... Yes, I would love to act, because I'll get to feel what it's like to be anonymous." Rosé also recalled a time when she was asked to speak at a corporate event in Europe and she dreaded walking through the crowd, but she was delighted when no one seemed to notice her. She said of the experience: "I was so anxious because usually when I walk through a big crowd of people I have to understand that people are going to recognise me and look at me .. [But no one noticed me so] I was jumping up and down after ... " Rosé released her debut studio album 'Rosie' last year but she's about to get back to work with Blackpink as they kick off the 'Blackpink 2025 World Tour' on July 5 at the Goyang Stadium in South Korea. Her bandmate Lisa recently hinted they may also be releasing new music soon as they have been back in the studio working on a new album. In an interview with Variety, the 'White Louts' actress spilled: 'Actually, we were in the studio a few days ago. "We're all so super excited to get back together and go on tour. We really miss the Blinks. We can't wait to see them."

BLACKPINK have been back in the studio working on album 3
BLACKPINK have been in the studio working on a new album. LISA - who released her debut album, 'Lalisa', back in 2021 - has revealed the K-pop girl group have reunited and are busy preparing new music for their fans. In an interview with Variety, the 'White Louts' actress spilled: 'Actually, we were in the studio a few days ago. 'We're all so super excited to get back together and go on tour. We really miss the Blinks. We can't wait to see them.' The 'Sour Candy' group - completed by Jisoo, Jennie and Rosé - kick off the 'Blackpink 2025 World Tour' on July 5 at the Goyang Stadium in South Korea. With regards to their first album since 2022's 'Born Pink', Lisa said: 'You have to be patient about it. It's coming soon, I promise. It's about time.' Meanwhile, LISA just teamed up with Maroon 5 on the song 'Priceless'. The Adam Levine-fronted pop group have joined forces for the first time with a K-pop artist on the nostalgic track reminiscent of their early days. The music video was shot in downtown Los Angeles on 35mm film and is inspired by the film 'Mr. Mrs. Smith'. The collaboration comes ahead of the 'She Will Be Loved' hitmakers announcing their first album since 2021's 'Jordi'. Adam said: 'It's just a guitar-based song which we haven't really done in so long. It happened first for us while we were recording the album. I think it's just the purest and we are so happy to have LISA on it. The guitar intro is literally me playing into an audio message on my iPhone with an unplugged guitar. I actually got a little emotional recording 'cause it was sort of reconnecting to our roots, which a lot of our fans have been saying 'hey we want to hear that sound again.' It's been like over 20 years so I think it's time for that to return.'
