BLACKPINK fans express their excitement over speculated appearance at Coachella 2023The speculated lineup has gotten fans excited, especially with Korean girl group BLACKPINK likely to headline. Some fans noted that BLACKPINK is revolutionary and needed at Coachella.
BLACKPINK, which is one of the most successful Korean musical groups, consists of members Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa. The group’s second studio album, Born Pink, was released earlier this year, and it peaked atop Billboard 200. The group previewed the album with the single Pink Venom, which peaked the charts in 10 countries. The group is currently on its Born Pink world tour.
Donned in Christmas attire in Amsterdam, the group performed special festive songs like As if it’s Your Last, Jingle Bell Rock, and Last Christmas. Earlier this month, their label YG entertainment announced a reality show titled BPM, which stands for Born Pink Memories. It features behind-the-scenes footage of the preparations and promotional activities which led to the release of Born Pink.
In 2022, the group was named Time’s Entertainer of The Year. In 2019, the girl group became the most followed group on Spotify.
Among the speculated lineup is Rihanna, who was announced as the headliner for next year’s Super Bowl HalfTime show. The artist recently released the song Lift Me Up for the movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. It was her first solo song since her album ‘Anti’ came out in 2016. In 2020, she released her collaborative track titled Believe It with PartyNextDoor.
Also among the rumoured lineup at Coachella was Travis Scott, who was also expected to perform at the 2022 iteration of the festival before being removed at the last minute due to the 2021 Astroworld tragedy which left 10 people dead and injured hundreds more. The singer, however, made an appearance at Coachella’s afterparty.
Scott is also scheduled to release his fourth studio album titled Utopia via Cactus Jack Records and Epic Records, early next year.
The album will be a follow-up to his 2018 album Astroworld. He is also scheduled to be the headliner at the Primavera festival in South America.
