The K-pop girl group were seen posing for a photo with Williams in an Instagram story posted by Tiffany and Co. executive Alexandre Arnault. Besides the musicians, the story included the official Instagram handle of Macron, positioned on the head of the person taking the photo.
BLACKPINK, Williams and Macron were on the guestlist for Pièces Jaunes, a Parisian charity concert organised by First Lady Brigitte Macron (who was seen attending BLACKPINK’s concert in Paris in December as part of their ‘Born Pink’ world tour).
The Pièces Juanes event raises funds for improving the conditions of hospitalised children and young people across France. Those musicians were joined on the line-up for the event, which took place on Wednesday (January 25), by fellow attendee Kid Cudi. French artists Vianni, Angel, Mika and Pascal Obispo also performed.
President Macron and Pharrell, too, are acquainted. Earlier this week Macron shared an image of himself and Williams on Twitter, revealing that the pair had discussed the topics of internet safety and human rights.
According to a spokesperson for the president (via Billboard), Williams and Macron “got on really well.” The statement continued: “Pharrell Williams is very involved in the issues of the harmful effects of the internet and [smart] telephones on young people… It’s good because he [Pharrell] really reaches a big audience and he is very fine in his analysis.”
BLACKPINK and Pharrell Williams posed for a photo together in Paris recently – and it’s believed to have been taken for them by none other than French president Emmanuel Macron.
They also seem to have a close bond with President Emmanuel Macron after their photo with Pharell went viral, as it was actually taken by France’s leader.
The main event for fans worldwide was watching the members of BLACKPINK perform. As expected, the girls stole the show with their talent, energy, and unreal visuals throughout.
In clips shared by fans attending the show, it was clear that both President Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron are huge BLINKs.
One video that has gone viral shows the BLACKPINK members at the end of their stage. Of course, the crowds were going crazy as the members took their final bow and headed off stage.
Yet, the reason it caught the attention of fans both on Twitter and TikTok was when the camera panned to President Macron. Many believed his reaction looked like a proud father as he was seen praising the members to those around him.
