Will not believe this until I see Manon onstage with the rest of the girls, while I’m waiting for them in the Sahara Tent.

katseye member getting slutshamed and other vile hate including racist remarks while being accused of being racist just for all this to be just a short break where she only misses lollapalooza
randomgirl852007 on
And how is she going to perform the new song that doesnāt include her?
This entire shit show is so exhausting, even for non fans that casually keep up with the group.
ETA: If Iām getting it right, they declined to comment on her leaving the group but confirmed sheās performing at Coachella?

I am incredibly confused now, as well as getting irritated.

It’s getting more confusing now, only logic I can think of right now is that this was a prior commitment which they have to fulfill and something related to her contract terms as well

wait im out of the loop – is this website a reliable source? or is it ppl making shit up again. idk im so tired of all of this

This is starting to read as “company-created drama for new music promotion” and is quite frankly going to make it more difficult for artists leaving their groups in the future.

????? so it was a marketing stunt ????
Maticulues on
I hate everything regarding the management of this grip so much. None of this is fair to any of the girls.
Well, it doesn’t say that she will be participating as a member of Katseye. š
So, stay tuned to find out what happens in the next episode of Vagueposting.

I don’t buy it. The same article says the new song is called “Funky Up.” It could be a typo, but I doubt it. Won’t believe it till I see her there.

maybe this should be a lesson to kpop fans to just chill and wait before making claims based off an ig bio.

ISTG if it turns out to be a PR stunt

PuzzleheadedPin1006 on
Not even an eyekon and this is already so exhausting. Those of you who are fans have amazing mental fortitude to go through all these mixed signals and still be fans.
scarfysan on

Again this is so annoying!! Is their whole communications team on a break? Do they even have one? Will fans have to find out news and information through weverse dms, Instagram likes and follows and an “insider” comment to a news outlet??
If this is just a PR stunt it sucks. It really takes advantage of the whole fandom thing they are trying to borrow from kpop.

I get the people saying this is exhausting but idc lmao. If this is true, Iām happy. I want all 6 girls in the group!!!
I would just like some statement from HxG already, though.

Every update about this situation makes less sense. Some comments have been skeptical about this from the beginning, but I thought thereās no way an agency would actually use a situation like this as a tactic.
The fact that this whole thing could actually be a marketing stunt is baffling. Even if it succeeds in getting more eyes on this performance or comeback, it feels like the kind of thing you canāt do without burning some bridges and splitting their fandom.
I still think itās not a stunt but Iām getting less confident in that idea with each update. Iād also be surprised if she actually performs then.

The 11th ??? Katseye are not performing that day ⦠hopefully itās a mistake and they meant the 10th.

I had so much excitement for Katseye when I first discovered them but now this is just getting a bit annoying.

So she might leave after Coachella then? Or it could be decided after coachella?
Because if she was going to appear at Coachella it feels strange theyād leave her out of the MV when she was originally planned to be in it.

Calling it now, theyāre gonna announce Manonās proper exit during their set and say itāll be Manonās last show

Nobody ever said she was out of the group. Just nonstop speculation and rumors…

I work in marketing and I donāt think itās marketing. Iāve been consistently surprised by a lot of the conclusions people have been jumping to.
She went on a hiatus for her health/dissatisfaction with how she was being treated, and there was likely some back and forth about what conditions needed to be met for her to want to move forward with the group. And yeah, in her shoes I would absolutely play my hand by showing the company how much turmoil it would create if I left the group by unfollowing/etc. Use the power where you have it.
HYBE/Geffen wants her in this group. They went out of their way to add her to Dream Academy. They allowed absences during training where other girls got cut showing up every day (this isnāt hate, itās just the reality of what happened.) They made her the center of the DA teaser video/trailer. If she isnāt in the new MV, yeah if they filmed it when she was on hiatus how would she be in it?
