Jennie of BLACKPINK is facing online backlash after an influencer revealed he was asked to delete a viral video featuring the idol.
The situation began during Jennie’s appearance at Coachella 2026, where she was filmed by influencer Harry Daniels. Known for approaching celebrities and singing their songs in an intentionally awkward style, Daniels created a clip with Jennie that quickly spread across social media.
As with many viral moments, the video gained traction rapidly—but it also attracted negative attention.
Following the video’s circulation, some online users began making body-shaming remarks, particularly targeting Jennie’s appearance.
Shortly after, the clip was deleted, prompting speculation that Jennie’s team had intervened.
In a later podcast, Harry Daniels addressed the situation directly. He explained that Jennie’s manager had initially asked whether the video could be sent to Revolve for approval before being posted.
Daniels admitted that he chose to upload the video without waiting. However, about a day later, he received a request asking for its removal.
He described feeling “heartbroken” but ultimately complied, citing respect for Jennie and the importance of maintaining professional relationships.
The incident has led to mixed reactions from fans and netizens.
Some criticized Jennie and her team, arguing that requesting the removal of already-public content raises concerns about image control. Others defended the decision, pointing out that the influencer had been asked in advance to seek approval and chose not to follow that request.
The situation also reignited conversations about how viral content can quickly turn negative, especially when it leads to targeted criticism or harassment.
