Overview
- On Alex Cooper’s podcast, the BLACKPINK singer confirmed she is looking for love but declined to state whether she is currently dating.
- She fought back tears as she described fearing that press coverage and comments could turn a yes-or-no reply into a defining label.
- She revealed she once used a wig and a “grandma” wardrobe to visit a partner privately so they would not be recognized in public.
- She recounted a past relationship she described as toxic, saying it was a poor match and that her partner limited her presence around his friends.
- The appearance arrives days before the 2026 Grammys, where she is nominated for record and song of the year for “APT.” with Bruno Mars, and ahead of BLACKPINK’s Feb. 27 mini-album release, with coverage noting K-pop’s long-standing dating bans.
