As reported by Tien Phong, citing Koreaboo, Lisa featured alongside leading Hollywood stars such as Zendaya, Glen Powell, Zoe Saldaña, Nicole Kidman, and Dev Patel in the Nov. 13 release of the annual issue, which celebrates prominent actors and their contributions to the film industry.

Speculation has arisen that Lisa's feature might be tied to her upcoming role in the black comedy TV series "The White Lotus". However, critics argue that her limited acting experience does not justify her inclusion among seasoned Hollywood stars.
"How can she be part of that lineup when she has no acting career at all?" one user questioned.
Others accused Lisa of using her relationship with Frédéric Arnault to secure the role and the Vanity Fair feature. One netizen remarked: "Her boyfriend’s influence in the fashion world probably made it possible." Another added: "Lisa is talented at her main job, but let’s not deny she wouldn’t have made it there without her boyfriend’s backing."
Supporters of Lisa have defended her, calling for an objective assessment of her abilities. "We haven’t even seen Lisa act yet, so how can people judge her?" one fan asked.

Recently, she garnered attention by winning the Best K-pop award at the MTV Video Music Awards. Lisa is currently on her Asia concert tour, which kicked off in Singapore.
Lisa is rumored to be dating 29-year-old Frédéric Arnault, the CEO of TAG Heuer and a prominent figure in the luxury LVMH empire.
