BLACKPINK to extend DEADLINE tour with concerts in China's Beijing National Stadium? Fans predict tickets to 'sell like hot cakes'
BLACKPINK is currently in the midst of their DEADLINE World Tour, setting the global stages ablaze. Having effortlessly sold out large venues, they've reinforced their global popularity. Following successful shows in three cities, they're scheduled to perform in Toronto on July 22 and 23. Amid that, rumors are circulating about extending the tour to China, with industry insiders saying their agency is negotiating a venue for the concert. BLACKPINK is reportedly in talks to book China's Beijing National Stadium for DEADLINE concert According to the X account @ChinaMusicData, BLACKPINK 's agency YG Entertainment is considering extending the DEADLINE World Tour to China. Given the recent lifting of the Hallyu ban in the country, it's likely that the agency saw an opportunity to capitalize on the situation. Reportedly the industry insiders revealed that YGE is in talks to reserve the iconic Beijing National Stadium for BLACKPINK's concert. They are currently in the negotiation process and the booking hasn't been finalized yet. Notably, the proposed venue is massive, boasting a seating capacity of 91,000. Being able to fill a venue like that will be a groundbreaking achievement for any artist. The venue's prestige is further underscored by its role as the host of the 2008 Olympics, which would make a K-pop performance, particularly by BLACKPINK, an even more historic event. Check out fan reactions to BLACKPINK's Beijing National Stadium booking report Fans are optimistic that given BLACKPINK's immense star power, tickets will "sell like hot cakes" if the group successfully secures the venue for their concert. They also acknowledged the popularity of K-pop music in China and the enduring fandom of the girl group there. "THIS IS CRAZY AND CHINESE PEOPLE DON'T PLAY WHEN IT COMES TO BLACKPINK THEY COULD EASILY SELL IT OUT" an X-user wrote. Another stated, BLACKPINK "can sell even 100k if they want!!." Some even claimed that BLACKPINK has the "largest fanbase" and expressed excitement on the possibility of Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé and Lisa holding concerts in the Chinese capital. The news thrilled the BLINKs of the country and they can't wait for the reports to turn into an official confirmation.

What is the 'Lazy Jennie' trend? BLACKPINK star's 'just standing and not dancing' move goes viral on social media
With its DEADLINE tour, BLACKPINK made a spectacular comeback to the American stage. Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa had sold-out performances and enthralling individual appearances, which brought the group back into the public eye. However, fame comes with constant scrutiny, and Jennie appears to be surrounded by controversy at every turn. Everything Jennie does is scrutinized, from her clothes to the people she's seen with and how she moves on stage. So when she unexpectedly stopped dancing in the middle of a group routine, the internet was quick to catch on. The moment brought back the dreaded label "Lazy Jennie" and it now turned into a viral meme. What is "Lazy Jennie"? The phrase is used to describe the long-standing critique of Jennie Kim, which claims that she lacks effort or vitality when performing live, especially when performing in a group. The allegations initially gained traction after her Coachella solo performance and reappeared during the BORN PINK World Tour, when several fans noted that her movements seemed notably less dynamic than those of her other bandmates. 'JOJO, HAVE YOU LEARNED NOTHING?!' In earlier interviews, Jennie has responded to the criticism by saying she has learnt to put her health first. She acknowledged that her early training had not adequately prepared her for the physical demands of constant traveling, particularly with regard to injury and stamina management. She also disclosed that she frequently has severe discomfort when performing in heels, which has affected her capacity to regularly give intense performances. However, many have noted a striking contrast: she seems to be much less energetic when performing in a group setting, yet her energy levels tend to rise during solo performances. Fans have stressed that they don't need Jennie to always give her all; all they want is for her to seem more involved, especially during group stages. The rise of the "Lazy Jennie" trend The criticism has now escalated into a viral phenomenon. People are making parodies on social media, particularly on TikTok, by dividing themselves into four characters and dancing to the new song by BLACKPINK, Jump. Similar to Jennie's notorious moment, one "member" in these vidoes just stops dancing in the middle of the performance. Some of the captions are brutally direct. One user wrote, "You spend a bunch of money to see BLACKPINK and Jennie is putting in 5%." Another simply posted, "POV: You're Jennie at a concert," alongside a clip of someone standing still while music blares in the background. JENNIE YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS This has 2.4M views on tiktok, lmao. The allegations of being lazy will never disappear for her😭 I'M CRYING😭😭 It keeps getting funnier 😭😭 Whether it's harsh criticism, dark humour, or just a viral parody, one thing is clear - the "Lazy Jennie" discourse isn't going away anytime soon. More about BLACKPINK's DEADLINE tour BLACKPINK's tour, which spans 16 cities, began in South Korea and has already made waves in the United States. The group is currently in Canada, set to perform at Rogers Stadium in Toronto on July 22 and 23.
