I-DLE's Shuhua faces backlash; criticized by fans for ‘lack of communication'—deets 'inside!

Time of India6 days ago

I-DLE, who recently rebranded from their old name, (G)I-DLE, have been making headlines for their new image and latest comeback. One of the members, Shuhua, however, has been at the forefront of criticism from fans and netizens alike for not maintaining enough contact with fans in the past few months.
Shuhua was called out for not communicating with fans
The idol has been under fire recently for not communicating enough with fans. A netizen online pointed out that the idol had last used a paid fan forum platform to post a message to fans on July 25, 2024. Since then, Shuhua had not used any online platform to directly connect with fans.
Her latest comment came this year on May 2, 2025, with many fans pointing out how the idol had taken 281 days in total in order to connect with fans directly.
Fans also pointed out that while all of the other members of the group had been actively interacting with fans and using their online accounts to share comeback teasers, Shuhua had only used the fan forum platform 10 times in total.
Some even pointed out that the members had used the live stream feature to tease the comeback, while Shuhua had posted a message in the middle of the night regarding the comeback.
Netizens react to Shuhua's viral behavior
After many people started pointing out the idol's actions, K-netizens took to online platforms and fan forums to share their disdain over the idol. One commented, 'She hasn't improved in nearly 10 years. No growth in skills, no better communication. What are people even stanning her for? Living off just her looks for 10 years? That's way too long. There are plenty of alternatives out there, yet fans keep getting played and still stick around…'
Another fan commented on the viral post and stated that 'She knows fans are upset; the other members have said stuff, the company's said stuff, and even the staff around her have spoken up, but she deliberately chooses not to communicate. Makes you wonder if she sees fans as complete suckers. LOL.'

Gulabi Sadi singer Sanju Rathod on Shaky going viral now: It might feature in a Bollywood film soon

Singer Sanju Rathod seems to have cracked the formula for a hit song. After all, Shaky, his fourth song to have crossed 100 million views on YouTube alone, has become the Number 1 song this week on YouTube's weekly list of Top 100 Music Videos Global. With this he has beaten the likes of Rose and Bruno Mars' APT and Ed Sheeran's Sapphire. Sanju Rathod Talking to us, he says, 'Challenges badh gaye hain. Of course I feel good, that all of this is happening with Marathi music, aisa hua nahi tha kabhi. Back to back hits dena ek artist ke liye bahaut bada task hota hai.' Does he place a lot of importance on the numbers his songs fetch though? Like Shaky, written, composed and performed by Sanju, with music production by G-Spark, has notched up 3.4 million reels on Instagram so far. He quips, 'Aisa nahi hai ki pehle main achhe gaane nahi banata tha. But logon ko mere baare mein pata hi nahi tha. Dimple, one of my songs, first went viral, then Bappa, and that's how people got to know about me. My audience has increased, that's how I look at it. Every artist wants to make a good song which goes viral. As the artist grows, the numbers increase. I also am attentive towards what my Marathi audince wants. I don't focus on just making music which gets the numbers but rather one which my listeners will like. Numbers follow.' Sanju shares that Gulabi Sadi will soon be featured in a Bollywood film, 'I got a lot of calls after that song from filmmakers and composers. I think the same might happen with Shaky. Ek chhote se gaaon se aaye artist, jo sapne dekhta tha aise,uske liye yeh sab bada hai. Shayad kahin na kahin I have achieved that.'

Beyonce, Jay-Z dominate Paris as celebrity drives fashions biggest trend

Paris, Jun 29 (AP) If any force swept through the fashion industry this season — and sent shockwaves around the globe — it wasn't a new silhouette or a daring colour. It was the spectacle of celebrity. Star power eclipsed fabric and form, transforming the runways of Paris Fashion Week into arenas where A-list icons, K-pop idols, and digital megastars didn't just attend — they became the main event. As the week wraps up Sunday, it's clear: the world is watching not for what's worn, but for who's wearing it. Beyoncé and Jay-Z didn't just attend Louis Vuitton's blockbuster show — they became the story. As they swept into the Pompidou Centre, the entire mood shifted. Cameras flashed. Phones shot skyward. Even before the first look hit the runway, images of the couple rocketed around the globe. The scene encapsulated a truth that every major brand — from Louis Vuitton to Dior, Hermès to Saint Laurent — now understands: The real front row isn't in Paris, but on Instagram, TikTok and Weibo. And nothing sells quite like a star. Beyoncé's head-to-toe denim look — a custom Louis Vuitton creation by Pharrell Williams — sparked headlines worldwide and instantly set the tone for the season. Her ensemble, complete with a cowboy hat and Western belt, became one of the most shared images of fashion week, underlining just how quickly a star's wardrobe can ignite trends far beyond the runway. Her Cowboy Carter tour, however, hasn't been without controversy — a T-shirt worn in Paris referencing Buffalo Soldiers drew criticism online this week from some Indigenous and Mexican communities. And when Williams presented her with a Speedy bag straight from the runway, the moment went viral — striking a powerful note that Beyoncé isn't just an attendee, but the face of Louis Vuitton's creative vision. This is the new dynamic of luxury: The most coveted runway seat is now in your hand, and what matters most isn't just what you see, but who you see wearing it. It's a story that's been told before — celebrity eclipsing fashion — but in a year of global uncertainty, the urge for escapism and the power of star-driven fantasy have reached a new intensity. Show, not just tell: Fashion as spectacle What once was a private preview for buyers and editors is now a worldwide entertainment event. Designers don't just stage shows — they produce spectacles. Williams, Louis Vuitton's showman-in-chief, turned his runway into a snakes-and-ladders fantasy with a guest list to match: Beyoncé, Jay-Z, K-pop royalty J-Hope and Jackson Wang, reggaeton star Karol G, and Hollywood names like Bradley Cooper and Mason Thames. Each arrival triggered waves of posts and stories — making the crowd as newsworthy as the collection itself. The modern runway has become a stage for celebrity, where the applause is measured in views and viral moments, and the line between performer and spectator disappears. No other force is shifting menswear trends faster than K-pop. This season, stars like J-Hope, Jackson Wang, GOT7's Bambam, and NCT's Yuta were everywhere, livestreaming shows and igniting fashion frenzies from Seoul to Sao Paulo. These idols are both tastemakers and trend translators, instantly transmitting what they see in Paris to millions of fans. Their attendance has become a commercial event in itself, driving the adoption of new styles on a global scale. Beyoncé effect Even the clothes themselves now chase celebrity. Beyoncé's 'Cowboy Carter' moment and Louis Vuitton's nod to Western style sent cowboy hats, flared denim, and rhinestone shirts trending worldwide. Brands scramble to turn these viral moments into wearable trends — knowing that what Queen Bey wears in Paris will be copied in malls and on apps within weeks. 'We make fashion, but we're a house of travel,' Williams told reporters. In truth, it's the celebrity's journey through fashion that matters most. The old fashion cycle is gone. It's been said before. Where trends once took months to trickle down, now a celebrity-worn look can reach the high street soon after the show lights dim. TikTok and fast fashion brands move at the speed of the repost. At Hermès, even the discreet luxury of woven leather tees and wide trousers took on new meaning as athletes and music stars documented their attendance. Their posts quickly turn exclusive details into mass-market 'must-haves'. It's a process that global platforms like Shein and Temu have weaponised — transforming a viral runway or celebrity moment into affordable, shoppable trends in a matter of days. The result: What debuts on the Paris catwalk can show up in online shopping carts from Atlanta to Addis Ababa almost instantly. Beneath the celebrity glow, classic trends endure. Streetwear is still king, with oversized silhouettes, soft tailoring and activewear influences everywhere from Dior to Dolce and Gabbana. The Hermès 'cool city guy' and Dolce's pajama dressing — rumpled but rich — are direct answers to how men want to live and move now. But even these trends go mainstream through star power, not just design. The models might debut the look, but it's the front-row faces who make it stick. Williams' very appointment as Louis Vuitton's menswear creative director — a chart-topping musician handpicked by LVMH chief Bernard Arnault in 2023 — was itself a statement: In today's industry, celebrity doesn't just influence fashion, it leads it. Everyone's invited now All this spectacle reflects a bigger shift. Fashion isn't just about what's in — it's about who's in the room, and who's watching. At Armani in Milan, at Saint Laurent in Paris, at every show, a galaxy of K-pop, Hollywood, and music stars now drive the narrative. For Gen Z and Alpha, the runway is no longer about aspiration — it's about participation, sharing, and living in the moment. The 'show' has become the product. In 2025, the biggest trend in men's fashion isn't a garment at all — it's the show itself. And in a season defined by heat, hype and headlines, it's clear: celebrity is the new couture, and we're all in the front row. (AP) PY PY
