Now in addition to Chanel, Prada, Gucci, Saint Laurent and Celine have selected new K-pop stars as ambassadors."
Congratulations BLACKPINK's JENNIE!
Wow that's a pretty sizable chunk for MIV. To those who aren't sure what MIV is: Media Impact Value is an estimated value of all posts, interactions, or articles across all traditional and digital media, including celebrities, influencers, and partners. Basically It's the total estimated $$$ amount the media made from Jennie just by showing up at Cannes and the media writing and publishing it. It's mostly ad revenue for their companies. Like Jennie or YG didn't make money from it but the media covering her did.
