BLACKPINK member Jennie hinted at upcoming music during Paris Fashion Week on March 9. While attending the Chanel runway show, she responded coyly to questions about new releases. Fans have been anticipating her next solo project following the anniversary of her debut album.
Jennie, a member of the K-pop group BLACKPINK, attended the Chanel runway presentation at Paris Fashion Week on March 9, 2026. During the event, reporters asked her about potential new music this year. She replied with a smile, “I need to keep it a secret,” and added, “but hopefully there’s more music for you guys.” When pressed about a new album, Jennie laughed and said, “I’m just gonna smile!”
This interaction has sparked renewed interest among fans, who have been following her solo career closely. Jennie marked the first anniversary of her debut solo album, Ruby, last week. The album was released on March 7, 2025, through ODD ATELIER in partnership with Columbia Records, after her departure from YG Entertainment and Interscope Records in 2023.
To commemorate the milestone, she issued Ruby (The Complete Collection) on March 6, 2026, featuring additional material and previously limited tracks.
Meanwhile, Jennie continues to contribute to BLACKPINK's success. The group's latest project, Deadline, debuted in the top tier of the Billboard 200, securing another top 10 entry on the U.S. albums chart. It also reached the Top 20 on the UK Albums Chart.
