BLACKPINK Rosé reveals she was in a secret relationship ... "I went on dates while wearing a wig and dressed like a grandmother"

SOURCE: 블랙핑크 로제, 비밀 연애 중이었네…"가발+할머니 분장한 채 데이트"

On the 28th, Rosé appeared on the popular U.S. podcast 'Call Her Daddy,' where she talked about many different topics.

During the show, the story about Rosé's secret dating life drew attention.

When asked, "You have never been in a public relationship. Are you trying to protect your partner's privacy?" Rosé answered, "It's about wanting to protect the person I love. It hurts my heart when the person I love gets attacked."

She continued, "I'm okay. I'm in the public eye, and that's part of my job. It can't be helped." However, she added, "If I could fully trust that the media would protect me, I might feel comfortable with a public relationship. But right now, I don't know if I can feel safe."

Rosé also recalled disguising herself to avoid being caught by the paparazzi. She said, "I can never be seen like, you know, ever. I bought a wig from an online store, studied how elderly women would dress, and I would go on date looking like an older woman." She revealed that she lived this way for about 6 months.

Specifically, when asked, "Are you currently seeing anyone right now?" She shared, "Just being asked that question makes me nervous. I immediately think about what kinds of articles will come out because of this comment." She added, "I'm afraid that saying 'yes' or 'no' will end up defining my entire life."

Meanwhile, Rosé broke records on music charts worldwide with 'APT.' with Bruno Mars, released in October last year. She also became the first K-pop artis to win the 'Song of the Year' award at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards. Additionally, she also became the first K-pop artist to be nominated for 'Song of the Year' and 'Record of the Year' at the Grammy Awards.

Outfits worn by 4 BLACKPINK members for Paris Fashion Week

 

Rosé - YSL

Lisa - Louis Vuitton

Jisoo - Dior

Jennie - Chanel

theqoo

-Lisa's outfit this time is insane. Honestly, Jennie's outfit made me go 'Huh??' at first, but the longer I look, the better it seems.

-None of the outfits were great.. Lisa pulled hers off the best, though.

-Lisa looked the prettiest this time.

-Lisa suited this look perfectly, from her hairstyle down to her outfits.

-They all looked strange except for Lisa.

-Lisa looks like a princess.

-I like Rosé's the best. She's so pretty.

-How did they manage to have all 4 members be ambassadors for YSL, LV, Dior, and Chanel...?

-If Jennie had just changed her hairstyle, it wouldn't have looked so much like lingerie. Or maybe that was intentional?

-They all looked strange, except for Lisa. Why did their stylists give them those outfits? Their hairstyles and makeup weren't great either.

-Jennie actually looked pretty in the video. The smokey makeup really suited her.

-Everyone except Lisa looked strange. They either look like a waiter or look like in their underwear.

-Lisa was the best dressed and Jennie was the worst dressedㅠㅠ

-Why did they make Jisoo look like that?ㅠㅠ

-Lisa totally looks like a Barbie doll.

Elle UK took down the picture that caused racism controversy and posted a separate dedicated post for Roséㅋㅋ

 

So annoyingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

At first, they just posted about Rosé's outfit without saying anything, but since they kept getting bashed, they edited the post and added an apologyㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ + An Instagram story belowㅋㅋ

(It seems like they took an action because British new outlets published articles calling Elle UK racist. I took this screenshot, it was posted about an hour ago in UK time)

theqoo

-Trash bastards.

-So disgusting.

-As expected, the Japan of Europe.

-I can't help but keep thinking 'What the heck is wrong with them?'

-So uneducated. What an unprofessional fashion magazineㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Live your life with an empty brain forever~

-So, basically they admitted that they were being racist?

-So freaking annoyingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Even the fact that they posted their apology on Instagram story is so freaking annoyingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It'll be gone in a day anywayㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-This is why you absolutely must fight racism.

-Go flop.

-They're pulling the "didn't mean to offend" crap. Legendary gaslighting.

-I was shocked while reading because they used the phrase "the full spectrum of our audience," which basically frames the people who raised the issue as being overly dramatic and nitpickers.

-Even the apology itself is racist.

Charli XCX's Instagram flooded with hate comments because of her photo with Rosé

 

Because she posted a photo where only Rosé was heavily shadowed. People are debating whether she purposely did it to discriminate and outcast her or not.

The comment section is pure chaos.

What do you guys think...?

Since some people question if Charli XCX's Instagram was really being flooded with hate comments or not, I'm posting more screenshots here.

I don't know if 'flooded' is the right word, but some people are definitely going wild.

She also posted this photo on her Instagram Story.

theqoo

-Kpop fans are basically pro at flooding someone's Instagram account with hate comments.

-The fact that she chose that photo means that she didn't care. She should've cropped it instead.

-Even if she had no intention to be racist, that photo is definitely shady...

-I don't know if it was intentional, but I wonder why she had to post that one...

-That looks like racism to me... Why would sheh specifically select and post a photo like that?

-She should've cropped Rosé out of that picture. What the heck is that?

-It certainly seems like something that deserves getting hate for.

-Charli is of Indian descent. Why would she be racist?

-I'm sure she would still get hate even if she had cropped Rosé out of that picture...

-People are so naive for thinking thaht she wouldn't be racist just because she's of Indian descent...ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I mean... What is that? Are there no other photos she can post?? I doubt that.

-People who think she didn't intend to be racist are the weird ones here. I mean, she could've just cropped Rosé out of the picture.

-Apparently, Charli did repost another picture of her with Rosé on Instagram story. But to me, it seems like she just did that because she's in the picture... Anyway, I don't like that photo. Do they not have mutual friends? I thought they have some.

-Honestly, that photo seems perfect to be used as the perfect example of subtle racial discrimination.

THE ORIGINAL VER OF APT OMG??! pic.twitter.com/Pw5653kBRG

— rosie (@roseannepics) September 22, 2025

This is not AI.

Rosé herself revealed it on a radio show.

It's actually pretty good. 

theqoo 

-Hul, I freaking love it.

-This sounds so... Rosé.

-Whoa... This version sounds so freaking good as well.

-It genuinely sounds like a pop song. Well, it is a pop song.

-This version is good tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It sounds like something from a Disney teen movie.

-Her voice is so unique and beautiful.

-This sounds like something Selena Gomez would've released back in her Disney days...?

-I love it. It gives off old-school 2000 vibes.

-She's so lovely.

-Please release this version too.

-This song was meant to be a hitㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I didn't know Rosé wrote most of this song.

-This song was good already and it got even better when Bruno joined herㅋㅋ

-Chaeyoung's voice is truly a gemㅠㅠ

-Whoa... Can't she just release this version too?

Which song released in 2024 had the biggest impact?

 

Aespa's Supernova

Rosé & Bruno Mars' APT

theqoo

-APT. It's especially loved by kids.

-Even adults know APT.

-Honestly, I felt the impact of both songs so much that I can't choose. It's like Supernova in the summer and APT in the winter.

-If I had to choose between the two, it would be APT.

-In our country, Supernova is very impactful. But APT is more globally impactful.

-I only know the 'Su-su-su-supernova' part in Supernova because I often hear it at my workplace. While for APT, I've listened to the full version so it sounds more familiar to me. So for me, it's APT.

-Definitely APT. As soon as it was released, the Ahjussi in my workplace were all singing along, saying it was a strange song.

-But why do I have to pick just one? I felt the impact of both.

-Even preschool kids know APT.

-Bam Yang Gang and APT. I still don't know which song Supernova is.

-My mom keeps humming APT while she does her makeup.

-I think Bam Yang Gang, Supernova, and APT are the top 3. Among those, APT is on a whole different level.

-APT... I was so surprised when I found out that even my 80-year-old grandfather knows that song.

-I personally like Supernova, but APT has bigger impact globally.

-Supernova is popular among people in the 10s to 30s, but APTseems to be known by all generations.

MR-Removed video of Bruno Mars and Rosé's stage at 2024 MAMA Awards (Those who kept insisting it was lip-synced, take a look)

Even though removing the MR for a band session live is meaningless... I'm posting this here for those people, who kept insisting this was lip-synced, to see...

 

theqoo

-There were people who said it was lip-synced? You can clearly tell this was live because of the ad-libs. People are reaching for reasons to criticize nowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Does it even matter if it was lip-synced or not? Everyone know they are amazing singers. Are people that bored?

-Rosé sings so well ♥️

-The choreography is so cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-There's no way they lip-synced... Both of them are amazing singers.

-ㅋㅋ It’s ridiculous to know that there are people who thought this was lip-syncedㅋㅋ

-Where was this pre-recorded session done? Japan? Korea? I wish there were more reviews about it. I'm so jealous... How did they get the audience?ㅠㅠㅠ

-I don't think Bruno has even heard the word 'lip-sync'ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Why would Bruno and Rosé lipsync?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I can't believe there are people accusing Bruno of lipsyncingㅋㅋㅋ

-Now this is what a real singer sounds like.

-Bruno Mars...... lip-syncing.....? Yeah, right.....

-It's surprising to know that there are people who thought this was lip-syncedㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Why would Bruno even bother lip-syncing?

-The pizza looks delicious

-Why does Bruno Mars look so cute?

The two female idols who naturally need to have their roots grow out blonde

Rosé 

Liz

As I write this, I realized that they have the same initials: ㄹㅈ (NB: When written in Hangul)

theqoo

-I thought I would see Hyoyeon in this post.

-I don't think I've ever seen Rosé with grown-out rootsㅋㅋㅋ

-Add Hyoyeon to this listㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I feel like Hyoyeon's been blonde for like 16 years out of the 18 years she spent in this industryㅋㅋㅋ

-Oh my goodness... Liz totally looks like a princess!! So refreshingㅠㅠ So pretty.

-The two of them suits blonde really wellㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I'm so jealous of their scalps and hair...ㅠㅠ

-Liz looks better with dark hair, though... I guess I'm the only one who thinks like thatㅋㅋ

-Which group is Liz from?

-I agree. But Liz's purple hair was also super pretty.

-I think Liz looks good with any hair color, thoughㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I wonder what Rosé's hair routine looks like... She's really incredible.

-But I really want to see Liz with short black hair in a pure, Japanese-style look. She has distinctive facial features, so she must look stunning with that kind of hairstyle.

-Liz looks like she came out of a fantasy romance novel...

[2024 MAMA] The atmosphere at MAMA venue when APT. pre-recorded performance video was played.......

 

会場の人たち困惑で盛り上がれてない pic.twitter.com/LfG2VYdgow

ㅠ

theqoo 

-Honestly, it's super disrespectful to the audience. They didn’t perform live, yet they took the ending slot? If a Korean artist had done this, they’d have been bashed like crazy.

-It’s not the artists' fault since it must’ve been agreed upon in advance. If the organizers sold tickets making it seem like it’d be live but played a pre-recorded video instead, that’s a scam.

-The singers were actually there at the venue, but they only played the video? Usually, even for pre-recordings, they stand on stage at least.

-Honestly, some people must have attended just to see that performance. Even watching it on TV was ridiculous;; imagine how much worse it was on-site.

-Is it because Bruno Mars' live performance would have cost a fortune?

-Why does it matter if Bruno wanted this or not... They should've announced earlier that it was pre-recorded.

-MAMA this year is very disappointing for many reasons.

-Mnet is at fault for not announcing it was pre-recorded.

-They shouldn’t have given the ending slot to a pre-recorded performance. Look at the atmosphere in that clip.

-That was the MAMA ending?ㄷ

The song is about the sleepless nights that she spent reading malicious comments about her

 

theqoo

-I love the lyrics... It's so emotional.

-I'm not a fan, but this makes me tear up.

-Let's give Rosé a hugㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Why am I crying?

-Rosé is number one girl who is loved by a lot of people...ㅠㅠ Rosé-ya, I like you a lot.

-I'm tearing upㅠㅠㅠㅠ From now on, I'm gonna say a lot of beautiful things to Rosé and my favesㅠㅠㅠㅠ Haters can just die.

-The lyrics are really beautiful.

-Did she officially say that this song is about malicious comments??ㅠㅠㅠ I’m not even her fan, but my heart hurtsㅠ So many more people love her than hate her!ㅠㅠㅠ

-I hope she only sees beautiful things, only hears beautiful words, and stays happy.

-The song is so good… The interpretation is so heartbreakingㅠㅠ

-I love Rosé. Rosé is the best.

-I’m not her fan, but Rosé seems like the kind of person you’d like even though you're not her fan. I know she’s currently walking her own path well, but I hope she continues to succeed.

-Her voice and the lyrics bring out so many emotions.

He's sitting next to Roséㅋㅋㅋ

theqoo 

-What is thisㅋㅋㅋㅋ Even while seeing it, I still can't believe this is real. I thought he'd only show up to perform.

-Look at the way Bruno laughsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ So cute. Give him an award~!!

-This is insane... He's the Oppa I usually see at the Grammy Awards...

-It looks like someone is dressing up as Bruno Marsㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ This is so weird.

-Why is he sitting there?ㅋㅋㅋ

-It's not just someone dressing up as him, right?? It doesn't feel real at allㅋㅋ

-Is this real?? Someone's dressing up as Bruno Mars!!!! Don't lie.

-Huh? That's not Photoshopped...

-He somehow seems so approachable after seeing this...

-Why does it look so Photoshopped?ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Bruno Oppa, you've made it.

-Hul, he's performing today???

Rosé asked about NewJeans and HYBE in i-D magazine interview.

 

rosé got a question about NewJeans and she answered with: “I want to talk about positive things. I love those girls so much.” pic.twitter.com/KGT9RdE8f8

— rs (@roseannepics) November 18, 2024

theqoo

-Why would they ask Rosé that? Seriouslyㅋㅋ

-I love NewJeans too.

-Why ask that to Rosé...

-That's right. Everyone, let's only talk about positive things.

-That's so out of nowhere.

-That's a very weird questionㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ But still, Rosé answered it nicely. She's so sweet.

-She answered that question very cleverlyㅋㅋ

-Foreign media probably ask about it because it's a big topic in Kpop.

-The interviewer probably asked because about it because it's related to Kpop, she handled the question really well.

-'She raises her eyebrows and shakes her head in a tiny motion.' <- Seems like Rosé found the question odd, tooㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-She responded to that dumb question with a wise answer. She's so lovely.

-Why ask Rosé...? She has nothing to do with the issue at all... She handled it very well, though.

-But it's also very strange to see everyone's shutting their mouths and pretending like this issue doesn't exist.

Claw machine that draws random photocards

Choosing between blonde vs black-haired Rosé, post-it messages, mini-games, etc

Outdoor photo booths

이거 채영이가 직접 색깔 고른거고 tmi로 말하자면 실로 하고 싶다고 해서 실 팔찌로 바꾼거래 ㅜㅜ ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ https://t.co/KduQYAp0Xu

— 다올 (@jennieedyou) November 16, 2024

Apparently, Rosé personally chose the bracelet colors, and as a little TMI, she wanted them to be made of thread, so they were switched to thread braceletsㅜㅜㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅠㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 

필카 나눠주고 순간 순간을 기록할 수 있게 하는 것도, 말 그대로 뽑기로 포카뽑기 하게 하는 것도, 전화 부스 만들어서 전하고 싶던 얘기 하는 것도.. 채영이가 정말 많이 컸고.. 다 해내는 구나 싶었어 ㅠㅠ 글구 소원팔찌 색도 빨간 흰으로 정하고, 실로 해달라는거까지 다 직접 정했대서 감동😭😭 pic.twitter.com/MjsAdcyRXz

— 츄이밍z (@chuwimming) November 16, 2024

The way she gives out analog cameras so that fans can capture the moment, draw random photocards from the claw machine, and sets up a phone booth so that she can share what she wants to say to fans... This shows how much Rosé has grown... She did it allㅠㅠ She even personally chose the bracelet colors to be red and white, and requested the bracelet to be made of thread. I'm so touched😭😭 

그리고 원래는 리스닝파티 기획할때 너무 격식 차리는 (?) 느낌으로 안하려고 의자도 안하려고 했는데 그래도 첫번째로 하는거니까 이렇게 준비했다고 🥹 오늘 리스닝 파티를 위해서 하나하나 다 ~ 준비함 채영이가 .. 🥹

— 다올 (@jennieedyou) November 16, 2024

She doesn't want the listening party to feel too formal(?), so she wasn't going to use chairs at first. But since it's her first listening party, she prepared all of this🥺 Chaeyoung meticulously prepared everything for today's listening party~..🥺 

Based on the fans' reviews, it seems like this listening party had so much of Rosé's touch.

She even brought Hank, her dog, to the event

She let the fans listen to her new song that's coming out on December 6 and also shared some behind-the-scenes stories.

She even did a sing-along of APT. with fansㅋㅋ

+Adding this since this post made it to the trending list:

The event was held via a lottery for album buyers, with 40 attendees per session (2 PM and 5 PM).

I've added photos to the main post, so please don’t spam the comments with too many picturesㅠㅠ

theqoo

-Crazy... Invite me too...

-The aesthetic is insane... I'm so jealousㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Whoa... Isn't this crazy??ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ A listening party for fans...

-This is amazing

-I've never seen a listening party done this extravagantly. The aesthetic is insane... Look at how the shirts have tags... Whoa

-The aesthetic is insane... I have never seen a listening party like this before.

-Whoa... I saw some pictures of the indoor decors earlier, and there's so much more to it. It looks like she put a lot of thoughts into this event.

-I'm so jealous... Rosé is the best.

-I'm really jealous.

-I wanna go tooㅠㅠ

-I wanna sing along too...

-So pretty... I'm so jealous...

-Whoa... She holds this event for fans???ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-I'm jealous that they get to hear Rosé's song before it's released... And also the fact that they got to see Hank...

-Whoa... This is legendary...

-Whoa... This will be a really beautiful memory...

-If each session only consists of 40 fans, it's not too many or too few. It's just the right amount to enjoy the party.

-Whoa... So freaking prettyㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Is this in Korea? So amazing...

-I think I'm gonna go crazy from jealousy.
