Deadline Fun
The stars also shared photos of gifts for each other backstage at Wembley Stadium
Rosé surprised Blinks with a special appearance from her friend FKA Twigs. During Blackpink‘s Deadline World Tour show on Friday in London, Rosé was seen onscreen sharing shots with the Eusexua singer backstage.
During Rosé’s solo segment, the large screens at Wembley showed the pair playing the Korean game that inspired her single “APT.,” taking shots and snacking while riding an underground tram for the start of Rosé’s performance of the song. (Typically, Rosé is shown having a bite of food alone before heading to the stage during this segment.)
Earlier in the day, the pair shared Instagram stories of gifts that they gave each other before the backstage moment. Rosé took a photo of a wrapped present with a hot-pink ribbon, and Twigs said “thank u” to a flower arrangement from Rosé. They were also captured taking photos together during rehearsals that day.
Twigs became the second guest to join Rosé’s solo set for Blackpink’s shows, following Bruno Mars, who previously performed the duet with her onstage during a concert in Los Angeles.
Blackpink is currently on their Deadline World Tour, and has one more show in London. The group is set to head to Taiwan and Bangkok in October, before shows in Jakarta, Manila, and Singapore in November. “Their Deadline World Tour didn’t just reunite the group: it reminded Blinks why they shine brightest together,” read a Rolling Stone review of the Blackpink opening show in Los Angeles, calling their return a “high-voltage homecoming.”
Meanwhile, Twigs is set to perform at Lowlands Festival on Saturday in Biddinghuizen, Netherlands.
