Jennie had recently sat down along with her members to do an interview with Rolling Stone and gave blinks a lot of exciting stuff to ponder over. Fans were literally waiting for an OT4 activity from the members of Blackpink for ages. Finally, the girls are officially back in the business and are already breaking records. By gracing the cover of Rolling Stone, Blackpink became the first-ever Asian girl group to be on the front cover of the Rolling Stone magazine. The girls even hinted at their upcoming comeback and world tour in the group interview with Rolling Stone.
Taking Jennie’s interview in an empty dance studio in YG Entertainment’s building on an April afternoon, Rolling Stone described Jennie as looking gorgeous with her orange hair and with her friendly personality that made them like her even more. They said that with her calm and collected personality, she could easily be mistaken for Blackpink’s leader (Blackpink has no leader). Before hopping on a flight to LA for Coachella, Jennie talked about Blackpink’s unique hip-hop style music, how she deals with her stress, and the misconception people have about her in her interview with Rolling Stone. So, without further ado, let us get started!
Jennie Reacts To People Saying That She Looks Pissed All The Time
Upon being asked about the mistakes people make about her, Jennie said that she knows that people say that she looks pissed all the time. Jennie told Rolling Stone that ever since she was a child, she had been very timid. Even saying hello to someone took a lot of effort for her. Before debuting, she had heard other trainees asking why she looked pissed every time. Back then, she used to take it to heart and just wanted people to understand that she was very shy. However, as she keeps growing up, when people say this now, Jennie puts more effort into socializing with new people. Knowing this, we can say it was an achievement for her to start saying hello to people, or else the media would have taken it the wrong way!
Jennie even pointed out the difference between the Blackpink Jennie and her real personality. She said that while the BLackpink Jennie is very powerful, the real Jennie is a softball. She is not so full of swag and charismatic in real life. She and Blackpink Jennie are so different that the K-pop idol feels that she becomes a whole new person each time. While talking about this topic, she described her and her Blackpink members as just like any other friend group of their age. Yeah, they do talk about their influence and popularity sometimes, but they want to be like ordinary girls more than anyone else. She says that she and Jisoo, Rosé, and Lisa just like talking about their pets, food, and awesome places!
Jennie Talks About Blackpink’s Music And Her Solo Music

In Jennie’s words,” It’s a tension that Blackpink needs.”. In a way, he is the driving force of their music. Moreover, in the Rolling Stone Interview, Jennie talked about Blackpink’s music and its hip-hop root. Jennie says that they being girls in their twenties who come from different backgrounds, are trying to weave new and creative pop music by incorporating Korean and English. She admitted that if the people who do ‘real hip-hop’ looked at them, they would look like kids singing and dancing. But to her, hip-hop is all about cool vibes and swag, so what hip-hop is Blackpink’s music? Jennie says that whatever it is, she likes it!
Regarding her solo music career, Jennie says that she has not even started to show all that she can. It has all been just a practice.

Fortunately, her mom was very supportive of her dreams.
Although many people would say that the kid Jennie might have felt very lonely staying away from her family, however, in reality, she could not be happier.
