If you think only us, mere mortals, get starstruck around our idols, think again! Celebs also have their fangirl moments—proof? BLACKPINK’s Lisa, a global superstar herself, nearly passed out from excitement when she met Justin Bieber.
And while the meeting went well, it wasn’t entirely what she had imagined. In fact, Lisa has one regret upon meeting the Biebs.
In a recent interview with The Guardian, the Rockstar singer confessed that she completely froze and couldn’t even talk to him. (Girl, we feel you.)
All the Details on Lisa and Bieber’s Meeting
Lisa shared that she met Bieber a few years ago, but was incredibly nervous. She later regretted not expressing her admiration. “I met him a few years ago, but just for a quick hi,” she revealed.
“I didn’t tell him how much I loved him because I’m too shy,” the rapper admitted, adding that she grew up listening to his music. “I think everyone was a Bieber fan when they were young. Everyone knows the lyrics to ‘Baby’ by Justin Bieber and Ludacris, don’t they?”
Yes, Lisa, we absolutely do.
Of course, fans of both artists have gone wild over this revelation—and even brought up a fun fact: Justin has been following Lisa on Instagram since 2019! Sooo, technically, she could’ve just slid into his DMs…
Lisa Also Had her Fangirl Moment with Rihanna
Thankfully, Lisa is learning to handle her shyness—and she didn’t let it stop her from talking with Riri: “I did tell her how much I love her,” she proudly shared.
Lisa has been a Rihanna stan since childhood and always mentions her as one of her biggest inspirations. “‘Work’ lifts everyone’s feelings up,” she said regarding her fave RiRi songs.
Lisa Was Nervous on ‘The White Lotus’ Set, Too
Meeting Justin Bieber isn’t the only thing that turns Lisa into a bundle of nerves. Apparently, making her acting debut on season three of The White Lotus also shook her up. Discussing her first day on set, Lisa told Variety, “I was so nervous; I was sweating, I was like, ‘I can’t remember my lines. I’m blanked!’”
But you know what helped? Music. And guess whose songs were on repeat? Yep, you guessed it. Rihanna—along with Ariana Grande and some hip-hop bangers. According to Lisa, “It matches the (series) beach vibe.”
Lisa also shared (via The Guardian) that she has her go-to songs for waking up: Eternal Sunshine by Ariana Grande and Snooze by SZA are high on her playlist. Oh, and let’s not forget …Baby One More Time by Britney Spears—her first-ever musical obsession.
“My older cousin would come ’round to play at my house, and she was a big fan of Britney Spears,” Lisa explained. “She put on ‘… Baby One More Time’ and I was like, ‘What is this song? I love it.’ I watched the music video and fell in love with her.” (Relatable, tbh.)
So, does Lisa’s fangirl-approved playlist pass the vibe check? And more importantly—can we start manifesting a collab with one of these icons? Or maybe even Justin Bieber? Lisa, just send that DM already!
