The Blackpink star performed her two songs "Moonlit Floor" and "Rockstar" at the Tuesday show.

Elle magazine described her "Moonlit Floor" performance, where she wore angel wings and lace lingerie, as "romantic." The song is about love and kisses in Paris, which is believed to reference her relationship with French businessman Frédéric Arnault, the son of billionaire Bernard Arnault.

For her "Rockstar" performance, Lisa was styled as a warrior. She made her entrance on a motorcycle and performed alongside a group of backup dancers, culminating in a runway walk set to the music.

Lisa’s acts at this year’s Victoria’s Secret show became a hot topic online, drawing much praise from many fans for her sensuality, impressive physique, and compelling performance.

However, some criticized her for being too provocative, especially given her young fanbase. This performance also recalled her last year’s controversy for performing at a Paris cabaret, which also sparked debate.

After ending her contract with Blackpink’s management company YG Entertainment, Lisa has been pursuing her career in the U.S. and Europe through her own company LLOUD. She continues to be a prominent figure at major fashion events and plans to reunite with Blackpink next year.

At 27, Lisa is the most-followed Asian artist on Instagram, boasting over 104 million followers. She has influenced various trends, including the recent surge in collecting art toys.

Speculation about Lisa’s close ties with Frédéric began when he started following her on Instagram in 2022 and liked many of her posts. They have since been seen together frequently.

Founded in the 1970s in the U.S., Victoria’s Secret started its televised fashion shows in 1995, featuring top models like Adriana Lima and Gisele Bündchen. However, the brand discontinued its iconic show in 2019 due to falling sales and viewership, alongside various scandals.

In Sept. 2023, Victoria’s Secret held "The Tour ‘23," an online event that featured many plus-size models. This year, the show made a comeback with a lineup that included notable models like Adriana Lima, Gigi Hadid, and Bella Hadid.
