On September 28, BLACKPINK Lisa took the stage at the Global Citizen Festival, which featured a star-studded lineup of artists. Her performance was a highlight of the event, especially when she debuted an unreleased track titled “Moonlit Floor.” Fans were captivated by her powerful stage presence and elaborate performance, but the celebration was soon overshadowed by allegations of lip-syncing.
Netizens pointed to parts of the performance where the backing track appeared to continue playing at full volume even when Lisa was not singing. Some even highlighted a particular moment during the performance that they claimed made the lip-syncing issue especially apparent. This incident marks the second time in a short period that Lisa has faced such accusations, following similar claims after her appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs).
The accusations have sparked heated debates online. While some quickly claim Lisa was not singing live, others argue these allegations are exaggerated. Fans have shared soundcheck clips showing her rehearsing live vocals, as well as examples from past performances to emphasize her vocal abilities and capability to deliver strong live singing.
The controversy has opened a wider conversation about the use of backing tracks in live performances and the challenges artists face when performing at large events with demanding choreography.
Meanwhile, Lisa’s new song, “Moonlit Floor”, is believed to be about her rumored billionaire boyfriend.
