BLACKPINK: Jennie Turns Into A Modern Day Princess In Custom Chanel Dress At Cannes 2023

BLACKPINK member Jennie is climbing the ladders of success with her new achievements. After making her dreamy debut at Met Gala 2023, the K-pop star has made her debut at the Cannes Film Festival. She looked drop-dead gorgeous in a Channel dress. She attended Cannes 2023 for the premiere of the television series ‘The Idol’.

Jennie wore a stunning Chanel SS20 tea-length couture gown consisting of white lace and sheer black off-the-shoulder sleeves. She went for a minimal look with her accessories, adding only a black satin bow to her wavy hair and delicate diamond rings to her hands.

Jennie will make her acting debut in the series ‘The Idol’. Speaking to Korean news outlet Yonhap about the show, Jennie said, “I found the script very intriguing, so I wanted to be part of the series. I feel very excited. I’ll work hard, so please watch me with affection.”

The Idol revolves around a self-help guru and leader of a modern-day cult who enters into a complicated relationship with a rising pop idol. It is set against the backdrop of the music industry. The show stars The Weekend and Lily-Rose Depp in the lead role.

Talking about her Cannes and acting debut, Jennie told Women’s Wear Daily, “It’s overwhelming, but I’m grateful and thankful. All of those things at the same time. Especially as it’s the first step in my acting career, I was honoured to be able to come.”

She added, “It was an opportunity to just be myself and be brave. I didn’t really train for it, or prep anything…Sam wanted me to just be myself.”

The team of ‘The Idol’ also attended Cannes 2023 including producer Ashley Levinson, director Sam Levinson, Abel Tesfaye, Troye Sivan, Lily-Rose Depp, Rachel Sennott, Sophie Mudd, Moses Sumney, Hari Nef, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and producer Reza Fahim.
