BLACKPINK's JENNIE becomes the first K-pop Artist to be featured on the cover of 'Elle France'

BLACKPINK's Jennie Kim has solidified her status in the global fashion industry by appearing on the cover of ELLE France's September issue. This substantial accomplishment reflects her extensive influence and impact within the fashion world over the years - a feat that few K-pop idols have successfully managed to attain.

After making history as the first Korean idol to grace the cover of ELLE USA in late 2022, Jennie has now added another feather to her cap by becoming the first K-pop artist to feature on the cover of ELLE France. Additionally, she is the second Asian artist to achieve this feat since renowned actress Maggie Cheung did so in 2004.

ELLE France is widely acknowledged as one of the leading fashion publications in the world. Typically, only French celebrities and models are given the opportunity to grace its cover, making it quite a rarity for Hollywood or Asian stars to be featured prominently. The inclusion of Jennie on the cover marks the end of an almost two-decade-long hiatus since an Asian artist last featured on the cover. ELLE France heralded this landmark moment on their official Twitter page, causing widespread excitement amongst fans.

Congratulations to BLACKPINK's JENNIE!
