Netizens claim BLACKPINK lip-synced during concert + Jennie walks off stage due to wardrobe malfunction

Netizens spotted several problems with BLACKPINK's recent concert. 

On April 24, BLACKPINK continued their world tour at Allstate Arena in Illinois. A netizen brought attention to the "Don't Know What To Do" stage and claimed the girls lip-synced the performance because the music was playing with the vocals going but none of the members had their hand mics up in the beginning. 

In addition, Jennie experienced a wardrobe malfunction during this stage. She was holding onto her top as if something was loose, and completely stopped dancing at one point. 

Ultimately, she walked off the stage. RoseJisoo, and Lisa continued to perform as a group of 3. Jennie came back shortly after fixing the issue. 

Although a wardrobe malfunction is not Jennie's fault, several netizens believe it would've been more professional if she finished the performance and then excuse herself to get it fixed. 

As for the lip-syncing, netizens left comments of criticism, stating, "Wow even lip-syncing at a concert, " "They even lip-synced on a radio," "Sometimes groups have lip-syncing parts but they didn't even have their mics up. I mean, at least show some effort," "I know they can sing well while singing live but why are they performing like that? It makes them look so bad."


You can watch the fan-cam of the controversial performance below.

Going of stage to fix her clothes so she would not flash herself before a massive crowd?? Come on who would blame her for that, its not even a live broadcast. People are weird if they have a problem with that.

I can't speak about the concert as I didn't go, but based on their coachella performance on weekend i went to, the chorus had backing vocals to it that they did not sing over to (the yeah yeah yeah for example). Just coz there were some parts like that doesn't mean they lipsynced that whole thing tho, I can clearly hear their vocals over the backing track. It seems pretty unfair to write in the article "lipsync the whole performance"; does this author have hate on BP? Seems like it from the articles the author has written.

Jennie seemed like she was really panicking during the malfunction and did her best after coming back, she was off for literally 30 seconds.
