Lisa Opens Up About Improved Fan Respect for Her Privacy Following Frédéric Arnault Romance

The 29-year-old BLACKPINK star, born Lalisa Manobal, is reflecting on how her relationship with fans has evolved throughout her career. In remarks published Tuesday in Vanity Fair, Lisa discussed the shift in how her supporters approach her privacy.

"I feel like after I came out and talked about how there's no privacy for me, [fans] now respect that a lot more," the singer explained during the interview published June 23.

While expressing gratitude for her devoted fanbase, Lisa acknowledged the challenges that come with her level of fame. She noted that fans have grown to understand the difficulties inherent in her position in the entertainment industry.

"Sometimes it's just a little too much, and sometimes I just want to be normal," she shared.

The conversation touched on her high-profile relationship with 31-year-old Frédéric Arnault, the CEO of Loro Piana. The pair were first spotted together romantically in November 2022 after he attended a BLACKPINK concert. According to Vanity Fair, the couple appears to have parted ways, with Arnault notably absent from Lisa's birthday celebrations in March.

Beyond her relationship status, Lisa used the interview to discuss other significant chapters of her life, including her decision to change her name during her teenage years, her journey meeting her BLACKPINK bandmates, and the group's ascent to global superstardom.
