Many posts criticizing and demanding apologies from Blink are flooding the Twitter platform following the disrespectful action of the event organizer Live Nation Philippines branch.
Recently, Black Pink held a two-night concert (March 25-26) in Manila, Philippines within the framework of the world tour “Born Pink”. Not only are fans excited to meet their idols and enjoy the group’s performances, but fans are also looking forward to this show when the time is close to the youngest Lisa’s birthday (March 27). . A series of projects such as a stand covered with hand-held banners, banners in the sky, self-designed cakes… have been prepared by Blinks to congratulate her on turning a new age. Unfortunately, some plans did not go as expected.
On the Twitter platform, fans are expressing their anger towards the organizer of this concert of Black Pink in the Philippines – Live Nation PH. The staff took action to ban, confiscate, and throw away the hand-held banners to celebrate the birthday of the vocalist “Lalisa” prepared by Blink. According to fans, the banner was designed in accordance with the standards posted by Live Nation Philippines branch before and was still allowed to be used on the first day of the concert but was banned the next day.
It is known that to prepare for these happy birthday projects, fans had to spend a lot of effort and money. The Live Nation PH side did not make any advance notice for fans to cancel the plan, avoiding waste. Not stopping there, a few comments have voiced accusations that the organizers showed a disrespectful attitude when asked regarding the reason for not bringing the banner into the concert. While these hand-held banners were all accepted at Black Pink’s previous concerts in other countries.
In response to Live Nation Philippines’ unreasonable action, fans are calling on each other to use the hashtag #LIVENATIONPHBASTOS in their posts to ask the event organizer for a satisfactory explanation and apologize for the incident. Up to now, Live Nation PH has not given any opinion on Blink’s allegations.
