While some concertgoers have been experiencing Swiftmania here after American singer Taylor Swift performed over the weekend, others were swept up by another celebrity making her way around town.
Thai singer-rapper Lalisa Manobal, better known as Lisa, from renowned K-pop group Blackpink, was spotted at various events in Singapore.
From attending Shinee and Taylor Swift’s concerts to having a hotpot meal, here is a rundown of Lisa’s itinerary.
The Blackpink member’s appearance at Changi Airport’s Terminal 1 last Thursday (Feb 29) evening had online users and the media wondering if she was in town for Swift’s concert, which started over the weekend.
Lisa’s arrival appeared to be low-key, with only about a dozen fans waiting for her at the arrival hall, based on videos circulating online. Dressed down in a white tee, jeans and a cap, the 26-year-old waved at fans and accepted their gifts, which included a yellow Care Bear plushie, a crochet sunflower and some fan mail.
The mystery of the purpose behind Lisa’s visit to Singapore, which CNA Lifestyle dubbed as the “curious case of Lisa”, was solved when she was spotted at K-pop boy band Shinee’s concert on Saturday.
She was supporting her “sunbaes” — Korean for people who are senior and have more experience at work — at their long-awaited Shinee World VI: Perfect Illumination tour in the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
Although there was no footage of Lisa at the concert, she took a group photo after the show with the trio. She was in a blue-striped to match their concert get-ups.
The veteran boy band, who have been crowned the “Princes of K-pop”, last performed in Singapore in 2012. On Sunday, Lisa attended the second night of Swift’s Eras Tour concert at the Singapore National Stadium.
Videos of her entering the concert venue with her friend, fellow Thai singer Sorn, soon surfaced on the internet.
Lisa was wearing a black fishnet top with a leather skirt and armed herself with the most crucial accessory for all Taylor Swift concerts — friendship bracelets.
Showing off her real arm candy from the concert — Swift herself — Lisa wrote on Instagram on Monday: “Had such a blast at The Eras Tour! Amazing performance.”
The K-pop singer was spotted singing along to Swift’s hits and trading friendship bracelets with one fan.
It was no surprise that fan cams of Lisa jamming along and busting out some serious dance moves to Swift’s songs such as Don’t Blame Me and You Belong to Me flooded the internet soon after the concert.
Many were envious of the fan who managed to swop bracelets with Lisa, praising Lisa for being “humble” and “sweet”.
One online user exclaimed: “I’ve never felt this jealous in my entire life, so lucky!!!!!”
The tradition of exchanging friendship bracelets at Swift’s concert comes from the lyrics of a song on Swift’s 2022 album Midnights.
“So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it,” Swift sang.
After the concert, Lisa met the American singer-songwriter backstage and they snapped a couple of photos together.
Footage online also showed her chatting with Swift’s opening act, American singer Sabrina Carpenter, during the concert.
Other celebrities and politicians spotted at Swift’s concert included Mandopop singer JJ Lin, Shinee’s Choi Minho, TikTok’s chief executive officer Chew Shou Zi and Johor prince Tunku Idris Iskandar.
To end the night, Lisa headed off with Sorn to Haidilao hotpot restaurant at Marina Square mall for a post-concert supper.
She reportedly exchanged friendship bracelets with a Haidilao staff member and also gave the person a hug.
In February, Lisa announced that she will be launching her own artiste management company Lloud.
She will also be making her acting debut in the third season of hit American HBO television series The White Lotus.
