Since the release of her solo studio album Alter Ego, BLACKPINK's Lisa has made several stops to promote her album. The album was released on February 28, 2025, and is the first since she left YG Entertainment regarding solo endeavors.
In an interview with The Guardian on March 23, the Rockstar singer spoke about different songs for different moods and occasions. From mentioning low-key loving K-pop group DAY6's You Were Beautiful to choosing Rihanna's Work as a go-to party song to even singing Carly Rae Jepsen's Call Me Maybe at a karaoke, the singer gave viewers her go-to playlist.
One of her answers that particularly caught the eye was her mentioning that she knows the lyrics to Justin Bieber's hit track Baby (ft. Ludacris) by heart. She also said she met him years ago and was too nervous to speak to him. She was shy and just said a quick "hi" to the Boyfriend singer.

"Everyone knows the lyrics to Baby by Justin Bieber and Ludacris, don't they? I think everyone was a Bieber fan when they were young. I met him a few years ago, but just for a quick hi. I didn't tell him how much I loved him because I'm too shy." - Lisa in her interview with The Guardian.
This mention by Lisa brought a variety of reactions. From fans mentioning that Justin Bieber has been following the BLACKPINK member on Instagram to some fans asking the two artists to collaborate, here are some reactions on X:
