MUMBAI: Blackpink’s Lisa has landed in hot water after netizens noticed a controversial detail in her Met Gala 2025 ensemble — an outfit that appeared to feature the face of American civil rights icon Rosa Parks printed on her undergarments.

Parks, often hailed as the “mother of the civil rights movement,” became a pivotal figure in American history after her brave refusal to surrender her bus seat to a white passenger in Montgomery, Alabama, in 1955. Her simple act of defiance ignited the Montgomery Bus Boycott, a turning point that led to the dismantling of racial segregation in public transportation.
Given Parks’ monumental role in the fight for Black rights, many found the use of her image in such a manner deeply disrespectful, sparking widespread criticism online.
In response to the backlash, Lisa has issued a public apology to her fans and followers, expressing regret over the unintended offense caused by her outfit choice at the prestigious event.
