BLACKPINK are some of the world’s most influential stars, and these numbers prove it.

According to a new report from consumer and market intelligence platform NetBase Quid, BVLGARI and Cartier are the most-mentioned jewelry brands of last year—and it’s all thanks to BLACKPINK Lisa and Jisoo.

Last year saw BLACKPINK advance by leaps and bounds in the advertising industry. In July 2020, Lisa was officially appointed the new brand ambassador for BVLGARI, a luxury Italian jewelry brand with 137 years of experience in the industry. Describing Lisa as “a bold and unparalleled performer and fashion icon“, BVLGARI representatives revealed they chose Lisa to represent the brand because of her modern and trendy image.

Jisoo, meanwhile, joined Cartier for the brand’s Pasha de Cartier digital project in September 2020 alongside EXO Sehun and GOT7 Jackson Wang. In the announcement of Jisoo’s new role, ELLE Korea described her as having confident eyes, beautiful features, and charisma that overwhelms the camera.

BLINKs know well how much influence the BLACKPINK members have in the world of fashion and accessories, but now, there’s data to prove it. In a new report on the social media performance of luxury companies, consumer and market intelligence platform NetBase Quid revealed that Cartier and BVLGARI now top the list among jewelry brands.

To devise their data, NetBase Quid analyzed the media metrics of 69 of the world’s top luxury brands between January 1 and December 31, 2020. This included 10 luxury jewelry brands, from BVLGARI and Cartier to Tiffany & Co and Piaget—and the findings were staggering.

According to the report, BVLGARI was the most-mentioned luxury jewelry brand of 2020 with 2.05 million total mentions, potentially reaching up to 20.06 billion impressions.

Cartier, meanwhile, was a close second on the list. The brand reached 2.03 million mentions with total potential impressions of up to 17.8 billion.

Both BVLGARI and Cartier had vastly more successful results on social media than any other luxury jewelry company. Tiffany & Co, for example, only reached 430,000 mentions, while Piaget scored just 165,000. Of course, it’s not just a coincidence; top hashtags associated with both brands included #lisa, #jisoo, and #blackpink. NetBase Quid cited “significant spikes in mentions due to partnerships with separate K-Pop BLACKPINK members” as the reason for their success.

"The K-Pop Craze continues in full effect, as brands partner with these top stars. We see Bulgari and Cartier experiencing massive exposure from K-Pop brand ambassadors."

Now, with fellow member Rosé crowned the newest global ambassador for Tiffany & Co, the luxury jewelry industry is set to grow even bigger this year thanks to BLACKPINK.

5 New Things We Need To Know About BLACKPINK Rosé In 2021

2021 has been a big year for BLACKPINK Rosé, as she made her solo debut. This year has also been filled with new information about Rosé. Here are 5 things we’ve learned about Rosé in 2021.

1. Rosé’s “annoying habit

In a hilarious over-the-phone interview, Rosé’s sister, Alice, answered various questions about Rosé. One of the things she got asked was if Rosé has any “annoying habits,” and Alice said that Rosé has a habit of “clicking her knuckles.”

Rosé couldn’t help but laugh after Alice said this, and she knew exactly what Alice was talking about. Rosé then explained that she has a habit of clicking her thumbs. According to Alice, Rosé’s habit of clicking her thumbs “annoys the person sitting next to her.” Alice especially finds this habit “annoying.”

Rosé knows this habit can be “annoying,” and if she is with someone she is close to, such as Alice, she will sometimes playfully click her thumbs on purpose!

2. How Rosé got her name

Rosé recently launched her own YouTube channel, and in her first video, she shared some stories regarding her past. One thing she spoke about was how she got her name, Roseanne. Rosé revealed that her father stumbled upon the name in a book and thought it sounded really nice, and the rest is history!

"I was born in New Zealand, so I needed an English name. My parents apparently bought a name book. I think it was my dad who looked through it. So they were searching through names, and he came across the name ‘Roseanne.’ I think my dad found that name to be really nice, so he chose it. I’m gonna have to ask him again, but from my memory, that’s how they decided on that name."

3. Rosé once tried to hide junk food when she was a trainee

Rosé is quite a foodie, and in an episode of My Little Old Boy, she spoke about the time when she tried to hide junk food when she was a trainee. Rosé shared that she wasn’t allowed to have junk food when she was a trainee, but this didn’t stop her as she once emptied her pillowcase and filled it with junk food!

While Rosé originally thought this was a good plan, she got caught when a staff member came to clean her room and happened to touch her pillowcase! The staff member heard the snack bags’ crumpling sounds, and Rosé’s junk food got taken away!

4. Rosé once lost her passion for music

In Rosé’s first YouTube video, she revealed that she once lost her passion for music, which is something she had loved since she started playing the piano as a child.

"I think at one point, I didn’t even enjoy listening to music."

— Rosé

Not only that, but Rosé’s self-confidence took a hit.

"For a good couple of years… to have talent in music, to have talent in singing, I kept thinking about what it truly means."

— Rosé

However, as time passed, Rosé started remembering why she loved music initially, and she started ignoring the doubts she had.

"I’ve gone through many different things in life, and through this experience, I realized the most important thing in music is to portray my life experiences and stories and make a voice."

— Rosé

5. Rosé once cried because of bean sprouts

Rosé is easily brought to tears, and in an episode of My Little Old Boy, she revealed that she once cried because of some bean sprouts she ate in Thailand. When Rosé ate these bean sprouts, she was amazed by how crunchy and fresh they were, and she started tearing up since they were so delicious!

"I couldn’t stop my tears from running down because those bean sprouts were just too good."

6 Ways BLACKPINK Rosé Made History In The U.K. With Her Debut Single

With one song, BLACKPINK member Rosé took the U.K. by storm...or at least she made history. The singer and dancer kicked off her solo career (while still being a part of the girl group) with two songs, “On The Ground” and “Gone,” which came together as a short collection titled R.

The lead single, “On The Ground,” was snapped up by British fans in large enough numbers that the cut founds its way to the all-genre ranking of the best-performing tracks in the island nation, and by doing so, Rosé carved out several new spots in the history books for herself.

First South Korean Solo Female Musician

Believe it or not, Rosé is the first female musician from South Korea to chart a song in the U.K. all on her own. When “On The Ground” arrived, it instantly broke a very thick glass ceiling that sadly has existed for far too long (but now it’s gone).

Fourth South Korean Solo Musician

Including male acts, Rosé is the fourth solo musician from South Korea to place a tune on the U.K. singles chart. The first to do so was Psy, whose introductory smash “Gangnam Style” (introductory as far as Western audiences were concerned, at least) is still the only track by an artist from that part of the world to rise all the way to No. 1. He followed that up with “Gentleman” a year later.

Third-Highest-Charting Song By A South Korean Solo Musician

Rosé’s “On The Ground” opened at No. 43, and while it may have only missed the top 40 by a few spots, it already stands out as the third-highest-charting track in U.K. history by a South Korean solo artist. The tune now sits behind Psy’s chart-topper “Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman,” which peaked at No. 10.

“On The Ground” replaces Agust D’s (otherwise known as Suga) "Daechwita,” which once lifted as high as No. 68.

Fifth Song By A South Korean Solo Musician

In addition to Psy’s “Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman” and Agust D’s "Daechwita,” Rosé’s “On The Ground” joined J-Hope’s “Chicken Noodle Soup” (a collaboration with Latin/pop star Becky G) as the fifth song by a South Korean solo musician to reach the U.K. ranking.

Highest-Debuting Song By A South Korean Solo Musician

While Psy’s two major hits “Gangnam Style” and “Gentleman” may have both climbed into the top 10, they didn’t start there. Coincidentally, the two tracks began their historic run on the tally at No. 61, which makes Rosé’s “On The Ground” the single by a South Korean solo star to earn the loftiest debut in U.K. history.

Third South Korean Musician To Chart Solo And With A Group

In addition to her chart success on her own, Rosé has scored several hits (seven total placements) as a member of Blackpink, and she’s not the only South Korean star to appear on the most important songs ranking both solo and with the band that catapulted her to fame. J-Hope and Agust D (AKA Suga) did so as well, as they are both members of BTS, who have now landed on the singles list 15 times.

In addition, the song also dominated the iTunes World Wide Chart by topping several Asian countries including Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam as well as Spain, France, Greece, Portugal, and Turkey.
