In her post, Lisa thanked her team at RCA Records and We Are Loud, and her solo fanbase (Lilies) for their unwavering support. However, the lack of a nod to BLACKPINK’s fandom (BLINKs) has left many fans feeling overlooked.

I’m so thrilled that I can finally share my new single ROCKSTAR with you guys.

I’ve been working on this project for quite some time and i had so much fun while preparing this. Thank you for your patience and I’m really happy to celebrate this together with you all. Thank you @rcarecords and @wearelloud team for making this happen.

Thank you Lilies for your love and support. It has been 3 years since my last song so i hope you guys enjoy ROCKSTAR era as much as i do.

PS. This is just the start! A lot more coming so please stay tuned

Despite the positive tone of her message, the omission of BLINKs did not go unnoticed. One tweet pointing it out gained significant traction, with over 416.7 thousand views and 6.6 thousand likes. In the replies, many fans felt disappointed.

this is really her first time saying “lilies” and not “blinks” but i hope she knows blinks are also there supporting her https://t.co/t0T4MkmUzw

Some fans felt that acknowledging both BLINKs and Lilies would have been a considerate gesture, especially given the efforts BLINKs made to support the single.

right like adding “blinks” with “lilies” would’ve been nice too but i really hope she knows blinks are working just as hard for her, and we will continue to do so 😭

The message has also sparked speculation among some fans about the future of BLACKPINK, with a few even suggesting that this could be a hint of the end of the group’s activities.

“thank you lilies” maybe shut down was actually the disbandment song..

On the other hand, some fans have taken a more positive view, suggesting that BLINKs can also be considered Lilies if they support Lisa’s solo work.

Solo fandom names ARE going to be used. If you're a Blink that supports Lisa's solo activities like a comeback, you're a Lilie too since those are Lisa's activities, not BP's

Just make a divide of "Lilies Brfore Rockstar/ Lilies After Rockstar" if it's easier to understand lol

Regardless, BLINKs remain divided on the topic.
