(Video) BLACKPINK Lisa To Appear In Netflix's Upcoming Reality Series 'Hitmakers'
Before BLACKPINK reunited to prepare for their upcoming DEADLINE tour, each member had been busy with solo projects. Lisa (리사), in addition to promoting her 'Alter Ego' album, also appeared in the third season of 'The White Lotus', playing the sweet, innocent hotel staff member, Mook. But that wasn't her only television venture, apparently. Fans were surprised to learn that the K-pop idol has also taken part in an upcoming Netflix reality series titled 'Hitmakers'. Here's what we know about the show so far: Yesterday (Wednesday, 25th June), Netflix released the official teaser for its upcoming unscripted reality music series 'Hitmakers'. The show will feature 12 of the industry's top songwriters and producers competing for the chance to create chart-topping hits for today's biggest artists. Among those featured in the trailer are John Legend, Shaboozey, and BLACKPINK's Lisa. The K-pop idol appears briefly in the teaser, seemingly video calling the contestants. The trailer quickly went viral on social media, particularly among K-pop and BLACKPINK fans, many of whom were surprised to see her involvement in the show. Some fans were excited to see her next project, praising Lisa for keeping herself booked and busy. Others, however, were puzzled by her decision to join the show, speculating that she may have minimal screen time, likely appearing only during consultation and the winner selection. It's currently unclear when the series was filmed, so there's no indication whether any of the songs composed by the contestants made it onto Lisa's 'Alter Ego' album or if they'll be saved for a future solo project. Regardless, one thing is for sure: Lisa is an artist who knows what she wants and based on previous hit releases, especially her collabs, her next solo album will likely be even better.

Fact check: Did BLACKPINK's Lisa and Frédéric Arnault secretly get married? Truth behind viral claim that has TikTok confused
BLACKPINK's Lisa and LVMH heir Frédéric Arnault have been seen together on numerous occasions—whether it's private dinners in Paris or shared appearances at events. But despite their repeated public sightings, the two have never made their relationship official. Still, that hasn't stopped the internet from fuelling a new wave of speculation, with some fans now claiming that Lisa and Frédéric are secretly married. Where did the rumour start? The wedding rumour seems to have started from a blind item posted on the gossip site Crazy Days and Nights on June 19. The anonymous post claimed that 'a member of the two-colour group' had quietly gotten married—an obvious nod, many believed, to BLACKPINK. From there, TikTok ran with it. Edited videos, voiceovers, and speculative breakdowns flooded the app, all pointing fingers at Lisa and Frédéric's secret nuptials. Lisa and Frédéric's wedding rumours: What proof is there? So far, none. There are no wedding photos, no visible rings, no leaked guest lists, and no credible source confirming the marriage. In fact, both Lisa and Frédéric have continued on with their public lives as usual. BLACKPINK's agency YG Entertainment has not released a statement on the matter, and neither have the Arnaults. Lisa's own agency, LLOUD, has also not shared any such information. Moreover, the Rockstar hitmaker loves to keep her fans posted with her activities, and she has never mentioned that she's looking forward to tying the knot or has already taken the big plunge. For such a high-profile couple, a secret wedding would be incredibly difficult to keep hidden—and yet there's zero verifiable evidence. Fans are curious, but nothing's confirmed Lisa and Frédéric have built up intrigue over time, largely due to how often they're seen together without confirming anything. Just last month, they were spotted together on a lunch date in Italy. lisa and frederic arnault in italy🤍 Given their high-profile status, photos and videos from their outings often go viral, leaving fans wondering if they're ready to take the next step.
