The rumor mill is spinning today as fans are convinced that both Blackpink and Ariana Grande
are slated to make appearances on Lady Gaga’s new album Chromatica, so let the investigations
begin…
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad back here with Clevver News, and what do you get
when you combine three of the world’s biggest pop acts onto one record?
I’ll do my best to even put that into words, but we’re bound to get something along the
lines of a pure pop artistic masterpiece that’s about to smack our earlobes like a sweet symphony
before we know it.
So we all know that Lady Gaga announced the release of her new album Chromatica last week
following the debut of the first single and music video from the album “Stupid Love.”
But as if we already figured this album was going to be one of her best yet, fans are
convinced that they’ve cracked the case on two of Gaga’s collaborating artists,
and spoiler alert: They’re massive world-renowned sensations, so brace yourselves for this.
Both K-Pop girl group Blackpink and Ariana Grande are rumored to be featured on songs
off Gaga’s new record, so I’ll give you a sec to pause this video, let out a little
scream, and maybe even a happy dance.
Now that the excitement is contained, let’s proceed to the clues.
Given things that have happened in the past as well as a few social media hints, these
rumors aren’t that hard to believe.
One tweet in particular has raised a ton of attention with some inside knowledge about
the potential collabs.
It reads, “Someone in the Gaga base said that an insider told them Ariana and BLACKPINK
are featured on Chromatica and today two users on PopJustice are saying they heard the rumor
as well.”
Another clue fans have noticed is that Gaga and Ariana have both followed each other on
social media, and Ariana is liking all of Gaga’s Instagram posts surrounding “Stupid
Love” and Chromatica.
Even fans began tweeting after going down a rabbithole of Lady Gaga’s posts, saying
things like, “Did you guys see on Instagram how Ariana Grande has liked almost all of
Gaga‘s posts about Stupid Love and Chromatica.”
The source goes on to add that Gaga and Ariana’s collab is set to be a ‘club banger,’ and
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m pretty excited for this one.
Fans are even retweeting a photo of Gaga’s alleged Chromatica tracklist, and if you look
closely, you could see two collabs featuring Ariana called “Reveal Yourself,” and the
Blackpink collab called “Castles & Mountains.”
Not to mention Ariana has been a Blackpink STAN for quite some time…
Just last year, both Ari and Blackpink performed at Coachella, and literally freaked out when
they got to meet each other.
Ari took to Instagram to share a photo posing with the girls after wanting to have met them
the entire weekend.
So who really knows what all these ladies are up to, but it doesn’t seem completely
out of the ordinary that they’d all band together and cause their fan bases to go into
complete meltdown mode…
As for Blackpink, UK radio channel, Capital FM reported on rumors that the band would
be featured on Gaga’s album.
Following the report, YG Entertainment shared a cryptic statement, saying QUOTE, “Blackpink
is working on a lot of projects.
It is difficult to confirm this information at this point, so please wait for the official
announcement.”
So here’s my thoughts on this…
If there was no chance at all that Blackpink was collaborating with Lady Gaga, wouldn’t
they just deny these allegations in the statement?
What do you guys think, with YG’s statement AND the heavy rumors surrounding the collabs,
do you think Gaga and Blackpink are set to collab?
I’m curious to hear your take, so get the conversation going down here in the comments
because fans are naturally flipping out about this news, taking to Twitter sharing comments
like, “never in my blink life did i ever thought of blackpink collaborating with lady
gaga yet here we are.”
I do have to mention that the girl band successfully wrapped their first world tour “In Your
Area”, and they continued to perform at sold out venues for the four shows of their
Japanese dome tour, for a total of around 205,000 fans.
They’re also expected to make a major musical comeback the first half of this year, and
not like they need Gaga’s help in doing so, buuuut a Lady Gaga feature would kick
their comeback off to a pretty solid start.
So it’s only a matter of time until we can put some truth to these rumors, but until
then, I wanna hear all your thoughts on whether or not you think Gaga will be featuring Ari
and Blackpink on Chromatica…
Honestly, the clues are basically all laid out in front of us, so get the conversation

were forced to cancel their show over health scares…
