Social media users have accused KATSEYE member Daniela of appearing bitter toward bandmate Manon during a birthday celebration captured in a clip from last year. The video resurfaced after Manon marked her 24th birthday on June 26 with an official group post but no individual member tributes.
The footage originated from a KATSEYE tailgating event in Los Angeles held the day after Manon's birthday. In the clip fans sing for Manon while she appears touched by the gesture. Daniela, standing nearby, points to herself and later remarks that Manon is "21 for the third time" before noting her own birthday is in three days, prompting another song.
Viewer comments on the video described Daniela's actions as attention-seeking. Multiple social media posts called the behavior "problematic" and compared it to overshadowing someone else's moment.
Manon remains on hiatus from KATSEYE activities with no announced return date. The group account posted birthday wishes while individual member accounts stayed silent.
