Aside from her solo titles, BLACKPINK also holds several Guinness World Records, including being the most viewed channel on YouTube which further heightens Lisa’s star power.
In fact, Lisa has also been recently announced as one of the inductees for Asian Hall of Fame 2023. She’s nominated alongside Far*East Movement and Freddie Mercury, among others.
However, in between this good news, several rumors about Lisa are also circulating. First, she’s speculated to no longer renew with YG Entertainment given that BLACKPINK’s seven-year contract with the agency is set to expire by August 2023.
Second, she’s also embroiled in dating rumors with TAG Heuer CEO Frédéric Arnault. As of writing, both camps have yet to address the relationship rumors.
