On May 6, BLACKPINK’s Lisa dazzled in Louis Vuitton, but one embroidered face on her outfit had the internet going full conspiracy mode. Fans speculated it was Rosa Parks on the lace of her gown. But Jimmy Kimmel didn’t stay quiet! The late-night host stepped in on May 9 and said what everyone was thinking: “It doesn’t look like Rosa Parks to me.”

Jimmy’s take adds up to Louis Vuitton’s team statement about the controversy. The brand clarified that the gown, made by Henry Taylor and Pharrell Williams, featured faces of the artist’s circle—friends, family, and neighbors. The theme of the gala, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” made the timing of the scandal sensitive, with users thinking the BLACKPINK member had a racist gesture. However, others have already cleared the air over the speculations involving Lisa and Rosa Parks.

Let’s not forget, Lisa’s on fire right now. Between her solo album “Alter Ego,” acting in The White Lotus Season 3, and gearing up for BLACKPINK’s 2025 world tour, she’s busy being that girl. So next time Twitter tries to cancel someone over a blazer, maybe we wait for the facts first? Meanwhile, Lisa’s just out there slaying the fashion, acting, and music games.
