BLACKPINK's Jisoo says Met Gala interview accidental
- On May 22, BLACKPINK member Jisoo said her viral Met Gala interview happened by accident after she joined the wrong line. - Moneycontrol reported Jisoo said, “I was standing in the wrong line,” then completed the on-camera exchange in English anyway. - The remarks were reported on May 22 by IBTimes Singapore and on May 23 by Moneycontrol.
BLACKPINK member Jisoo said this week that her widely shared Met Gala interview was not planned. In reports published on May 22 and May 23, she said she had accidentally ended up in the interview line at the 2026 event and only realized it after the process was already underway. The account reframed a moment that had circulated online as a poised English-language red carpet exchange. It also added a simple explanation for why the clip drew so much attention among fans. ### How did Jisoo describe the moment? IBTimes Singapore reported on May 22 that Jisoo said she “never meant” to do the interview and reacted with “Why me?” after the mix-up. The outlet said she described the viral exchange as an unexpected result of getting into the wrong line at the Met Gala. Moneycontrol reported on May 23 that Jisoo said, “I was standing in the wrong line,” and then went through with the interview. The outlet said she spoke about the episode after fans revisited the clip online. (ibtimes.sg) ### Why did the clip spread so widely? The interview became a fan talking point because it showed Jisoo answering questions in English at one of the biggest fashion events of the year. Moneycontrol said online reaction focused on how calmly she handled the exchange despite saying later that she had not intended to be there. (moneycontrol.com) Koreaboo, citing Jisoo’s live broadcast, also reported on May 22 that she said the interview happened because she got in the wrong line. That account matched the explanation carried by IBTimes Singapore and Moneycontrol. ### When did this happen in the Met Gala timeline? (moneycontrol.com) Moneycontrol previously reported that Jisoo made her Met Gala debut earlier this month in a Dior couture gown. The outlet said her appearance placed all four BLACKPINK members at fashion’s biggest night. (koreaboo.com) IBTimes Singapore separately reported on May 5 that the 2026 gala marked Jisoo’s first appearance at the event. That timing helps explain why the interview clip drew extra scrutiny from fans tracking her debut. ### Was this part of a bigger controversy? (moneycontrol.com) The available reports tie the episode mainly to social-media reaction around the clip itself, not to a broader dispute about the event. The supplied coverage from IBTimes Singapore and Moneycontrol centers on the mistaken line-up and the online response after Jisoo explained it. (ibtimes.sg) IBTimes Singapore and Moneycontrol both framed the new detail as a clarification of a viral moment rather than a new allegation about the gala. In those reports, the focus stayed on Jisoo’s account of how the interview began. ### What comes next? (ibtimes.sg) The next public step is likely to be continued circulation of the original Met Gala clip alongside Jisoo’s explanation from May 22 and May 23. Fans looking for the account can find it in the IBTimes Singapore report published May 22 and the Moneycontrol follow-up published May 23. (ibtimes.sg)
