Ideal Conditions for Creativity
The BLACKPINK singer shared that she finds creative fuel in tough times, which leads to her best recording sessions.
She expressed, “It’s been an experience of like, wow, life has been pretty bad lately, it’s always been the best session because I end up walking out with a song, where I have left all that there and walked out with a great song.”
The “On The Ground” singer talked about her upcoming album “rosie,” saying, “This album is a representation of 3-4 years and all the raw and honest emotions I have never talked about before.”
She revealed that her debut studio album contains a lot of her personal heartbreaking stories and vulnerable emotions.
Rosé on BLACKPINK
Of course, the interview could not be completed without mentioning her beloved BLACKPINK members.
When Sean asked her what makes BLACKPINK special she credited the group’s success to hard work, saying, “(What) is so strong about BLACKPINK, It’s the fact that all of us want such big things for ourselves, and we, like, work so hard every day.” Rosé shared that they never rest and also strive for their goals.
Her Dog Hank
Sharing the story of her beloved pet dog Hank, the “Gone” singer revealed, “Hank was named after Tom Hanks…for some reason he just looks like a Hank, he’s chic.”
Rosé called them a “good match” as she is very needy and they balance each other out.
Met Gala Debut
The “APT.” was asked about what goes behind selecting a dress for the Met Gala as she walked the red carpet, donning YSL.
Sharing the process behind selecting a dress, she shared, “We did a fitting and we thought it looked great and we went so it wasn’t actually too hard, my experience was not as crazy as other people.”
Her interview on the “First We Feast” YouTube channel is already nearing 1 million views with 86K views. She has some of the best reactions to hot wings and even needed a stress ball to get through it.
Meanwhile, BLACKPINK member Rosé is all ready to drop her debut studio album “rosie,” out on December 6.
