BLACKPINK Jennie’s dance clip from the HBO Max series The Idol has gone viral, garnering over 1.5 million views on YouTube. The clip, which shows Jennie rehearsing a dance routine with other background dancers, has been praised by fans for her incredible dancing skills.
BLACKPINK’s Jennie has once again proven her star power as a short dance clip featuring her performance in the American drama series “The Idol” garnered an impressive 1.5 million views on YouTube. Surpassing the viewership of the show’s debut episode, this feat highlights Jennie’s widespread popularity and talent. Despite “The Idol” receiving criticism for its content, Jennie’s electrifying dance moves have captivated audiences worldwide.
Jennie’s Viral Dance Scene:
In “The Idol,” Jennie portrays the role of a background dancer who is also a close friend of the lead character, played by Lily-Rose Depp. Although Jennie’s appearance in the first episode was brief, her talent and on-screen charisma caught the attention of viewers. One particular scene featuring Jennie and other background dancers engaged in choreography practice became an internet sensation, accumulating an impressive 1.5 million views on YouTube.
The Idol’s Underwhelming Debut:
While Jennie’s dance clip soared in popularity, “The Idol” struggled to make a significant impact during its debut. The show’s first episode, titled “Pop Tarts & Rat Tales,” premiered on June 4, 2023, with a relatively disappointing viewership of 913,000 views. This figure was unexpectedly low, considering the star-studded cast that includes notable names such as Lily-Rose Depp, Troye Sivan, and Jennie herself.
Controversy Surrounding “The Idol”:
“The Idol” has faced its fair share of negative attention and controversy since its premiere. The American drama series, created by Sam Levinson, Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye, and Reza Fahim, explores the complex relationship between an aspiring pop idol (played by Lily-Rose Depp) and a self-help guru and cult leader named Tedros (portrayed by Tesfaye). The show’s explicit sexual content and themes have drawn criticism from both viewers and critics alike.
Despite the controversy surrounding “The Idol,” it is evident that Jennie‘s talent and popularity have shone through, attracting a considerable number of viewers to her captivating dance scene. As the series continues to air on HBO, fans eagerly await the second episode, titled “Double Fantasy,” set to premiere on June 11, 2023.
