On August 25, 2025, Kim Taehyung, better known as BTS’ V, stepped onto the mound at Dodger Stadium to throw the ceremonial first pitch for the LA Dodgers versus the Cincinnati Reds. The K-pop star’s debut pitch became a global headline and a massive fan moment.

But the cherry on top? Finneas, known for working as a producer and songwriter with his sister Billie Eilish, reposted V’s first pitch on Instagram. And to make things more exclusive, this was only his second repost ever, instantly sparking rumors of a dream collaboration between the three. Fans began speculating at full speed, imagining everything from Finneas producing V’s next solo project to a massive Billie Eilish and V track that could break the internet.

The buzz did not stop there! Major American media outlets covered V’s pitch like it was the World Series, and the idol quickly became the most searched celebrity on Google worldwide. The Finneas repost might’ve been just simple admiration, but fans are clearly wanting something more! But until their collab becomes true, at least we know V made a baseball game look like his own sold-out concert.
