Recently, MEOVV, a new girl group project under THE BLACK LABEL agency led by Teddy, revealed Ella Gross as their first member. This fresh group has rapidly garnered interest from the K-pop fan community.
Ella Gross, who is widely recognized as the “most beautiful child model in the world” and has received support from Jennie since a young age, is preparing to make her debut as an idol. Her stunning beauty has only continued to grow with time, causing MEOVV to be dubbed as a highly anticipated rookie group even before their official debut, thanks to Ella Gross’s involvement.
Despite her young age, Ella Gross is already well-known in the public eye. The American-Korean-German model has been a familiar face in the global fashion industry since she was a child. In 2018, she joined THE BLACK LABEL as a trainee and has been praised as a highly talented individual. She has also formed a close bond with the popular girl group BLACKPINK, earning the nickname “little Jennie”and receiving much love and support from all four members.
After the introduction of Ella Gross in a trailer by THE BLACK LABEL, she received congratulations from senior artists in the company such as Taeyang and Somi. It is worth mentioning that Jisoo, the oldest member of BLACKPINK, also shared supportive information about Ella on her Instagram, demonstrating the close bond between Ella and BLACKPINK.
Despite causing controversy, the debut of YG’s new rookie has also sparked discussion among fans. On Twitter, many BABYMONSTER fans have expressed their disappointment in Jisoo and BLACKPINK for appearing indifferent towards the debut, especially in comparison to their enthusiastic congratulations for model Ella Gross. As the next girl group to follow in BLACKPINK’s footsteps, BABYMONSTER is often compared to their successful seniors.
Despite being featured as mentors in a pre-debut documentary for BABYMONSTER, BLACKPINK has faced backlash from BABYMONSTER fans for not acknowledging the debut of either BABYMONSTER group. Many disappointed fans have expressed their frustration with the lack of recognition from the popular K-pop group.
The backlash directed at BLACKPINK on social media has intensified, causing BLINKs to become dissatisfied. Several individuals feel that BABYMONSTER fans are overly demanding by constantly comparing BLACKPINK’s interactions with YG’s latest rookie and Ella Gross. However, it is unfair to expect BLACKPINK to control or restrict who they choose to show support and congratulate, especially since Ella Gross is a childhood friend whom they have supported for a long time.
During the debut of BABYMONSTER, BLACKPINK was in the midst of negotiating their individual contracts and ultimately made the decision not to renew them. As a result, the group had to be careful to avoid any controversial actions. However, it would be unfair to assume that BLACKPINK does not support their juniors simply due to this situation.
