Blackpink's Lisa snaps photo with Taylor Swift in Singapore
MANILA, Philippines — Thousands of Taylor Swifts flocked to Singapore to see the award-winning singer-songwriter's sole Southeast Asian stop of her Eras tour, including Lisa of the Korean girl group Blackpink.
The Thai rapper and singer was among the lucky few who got to see Taylor perform at one of her six nights in Singapore's National Stadium.
Lisa — whose full name is Lalisa Manoban — was even luckier to snap a photo with Taylor, documenting the moment on her Instagram account.
"Had such a blast at The Eras Tour! Amazing performance Taylor," Lisa wrote in the post's caption.
As per Swifties tradition throughout the tour, Lisa also exchanged friendship bracelets with several fans of Taylor.
Lisa's Blackpink colleague Rosé previously watched Taylor perform in Tokyo last month, before Taylor quickly flew to the United States to watch boyfriend Travis Kelce win the Super Bowl with the Kansas City Chiefs.
Also spotted in the Singapore crowd was "Saltburn" actor Barry Keoghan, there to support his girlfriend Sabrina Carpenter who is Taylor's opening act on this leg of the tour.
Local celebrities who flew to see Taylor in Singapore include Kylie Padilla, Dr. Vicki Belo, Kim Domingo, sisters Toni and Alex Gonzaga, and drag queen Taylor Sheesh.
Taylor's concerts in Singapore are currently a hot topic following the revelation that Singapore paid a grant to ensure it would be the only stop in Southeast Asia to host the four-time Grammy winner for Album of the Year.
Singapore's culture minister Edwin Tong said the grant's size is not as high as speculated online, however, he did not reveal specifics due to business confidentiality reasons.
Congressman Joey Salceda went as far to criticize Singapore, saying it was "what good neighbors do."
