Rosé is one of those artists steadily making her way through the entertainment industry. While she’s already well known as a member of BlackPink and for her solo project—including her song APT with Bruno Mars—it seems that in certain circles the spotlight still treats her as if she were a “who’s that?” type of figure. And in this case, even Charli XCX ended up getting dragged into the story.
It all went down at the Saint Laurent show during Paris Fashion Week, where Rosé was present alongside Charli XCX, Zoë Kravitz, and Hailey Bieber. But a few details caught fans’ attention—and Blinks weren’t happy about how Rosé was treated.
Charli XCX Criticized for “Ignoring” Rosé
The controversy began with a photo Charli XCX posted on Instagram on September 30, showing the four celebrities sitting together. But two things stood out in that image.
First, the lighting: Charli, Zoë, and Hailey were well-lit, while Rosé was left completely in the shadows. For the fandom, this felt like a huge insult—interpreting it as an attempt to ignore or minimize the BlackPink member.
Second, the body language: in the same shot, Hailey and Zoë are smiling at each other, while Charli and Rosé look in the same direction. To fans, however, it looked like the Party 4 U singer was outright ignoring the APT performer.
Of course, other photos circulating online show Charli and Rosé posing together and displaying their outfits, but that didn’t stop Blinks from attacking the British artist—going so far as to say that Charli was the “unknown” one in that room, not Rosé. (Even though in reality, none of them are unknowns, as all four women have successful careers to back them up.)

To make matters worse, several videos also surfaced showing moments where Rosé seemed to be turned away from, left out, or visibly uncomfortable. In some clips, she even appeared to shrink back when the crowd got busier, as if she were trying not to be noticed.
