BLACKPINK's Lisa is set to make history as the first K-pop idol to perform on the 'Crazy Horse' stage on September 28 and 29. To fulfill this schedule, Lisa departed for Paris, France, via Incheon Airport on September 24.
As fans eagerly anticipate what kind of performance Lisa will present, concerns have arisen due to information about 'Crazy Horse' being shared among them. 'Crazy Horse' began in 1951 by avant-garde artist Alain Bernardin and is known for its sensual performance shows. The performance venue was established on Paris' Champs-élysées. It has garnered attention from stars like Steven Spielberg, Beyoncé, and Christina Aguilera.
While it's considered one of the top three shows in Paris alongside Moulin Rouge and Lido, it has faced controversies due to the risqué costumes of female dancers and its "art nude" shows.
Debates have arisen over whether it's obscene or artistic. In 2015, when 'Crazy Horse' had a performance in South Korea, the local film rating board designated it as "not suitable for teenagers" due to its provocative scenes. The somewhat explicit physical criteria required to become a dancer for 'Crazy Horse' have also raised eyebrows.
Concerns about Lisa being overly sexualized or whether she really needs to participate in this show have been voiced. On the other hand, there's positive speculation that Lisa might showcase a new side of herself, leading to an image transformation.
Meanwhile, Lisa made her debut with BLACKPINK in 2016 and has received global love for hit songs like 'Boombayah', 'Whistle', 'Ddu-Du Ddu-Du', 'Kill This Love', 'Pink Venom', and 'Shut Down'. There have been rumors about her not renewing her contract with YG Entertainment, but she has remained silent on the matter, causing fans to grow anxious. Recently, there were also rumors about her dating the world's second-richest individual.
