BLACKPINK’s Jennie is known for her stunning visuals and enviable figure, but her latest concept photos for her upcoming single " Mantra " have sparked controversy. In the photos, Jennie strikes a pose on what seems to be a vehicle, her wavy hair blowing in the wind, exuding confidence and style.

While many fans celebrated the release on social media, some netizens responded negatively, criticizing the angle of the shot and suggesting that her stomach needed editing.

Jennie's fans were quick to defend her, expressing disgust at the hurtful comments and questioning the unrealistic beauty standards imposed on women. They emphasized that Jennie looks not only normal but also beautiful, asserting there’s nothing wrong with her appearance.

Many fans commended Jennie for her bravery in sharing the unfiltered photo, noting that her confidence only adds to their admiration for her. The support from her fanbase highlights the importance of body positivity and acceptance in an industry that often scrutinizes women’s bodies.

Mark your calendars: Jennie's new single "Mantra" drops on October 10 at 8 PM EDT. Fans are excited to see what she has in store, ready to celebrate her talent and beauty, regardless of the noise around her.
