BLACKPINK did not disappoint during MTV’s 2022 Video Music Awards on Sunday, Aug. 28. The quartet of K-pop queens brought down the house while playing their song “Pink Venom” during their US awards show debut. More Celebrity News:
All eyes were on the songstresses, who pulled out all the stops for the performance. Smoke billowed around them while a gaggle of perfectly synced-up backup dancers swayed behind them seductively. It was no surprise they earned a standing ovation by the end of the song.

BLACKPINK has been on a winning streak. Before the VMAs even began, they won the Best Metaverse Performance award. And their song “Pink Vemon” was already getting plenty of attention before the show, smashing Spotify’s 2022 record for the most-streamed song by a female artist in a single day.
BLACKPINK weren’t the only showstoppers at the VMAs. Eminem and Snoop Dogg were set to team up for a rendition of their hit “From the D 2 the LBC”, connecting the two performers together from concerts on opposite coasts. Articles Trending Now
