Blackpink's Rosé opens up about heartbreak, toxic love, and finding herself, showing us that even the brightest stars have their darkest moments. Read on to find out more!
Rosé, the talented singer from BLACKPINK, has always amazed us with her voice and performance. But behind the bright lights and fame, her journey has been filled with struggles.
In her new solo album Rosie, she opens up about her past, her emotions, and how she learned to heal from a toxic relationship, and that's what she shared with the PAPER magazine.
Her story is real and something everyone can relate to. But what happened?
1) A Relationship That Hurt
Rosé describes her 20s as a confusing and vulnerable time. Like many people, she had a toxic relationship with ups and downs, misunderstandings, and pain. She admits she didn’t notice the red flags and ended up hurt. She says,
"Your 20s are not an easy time,"
and this relationship was part of her struggle.
Through her music, Rosé expresses the emotional scars from that time. She sings about wanting love, feeling enough, and dealing with loneliness and doubt, things many people can relate to, whether in relationships or life.
2) The Strength to Be Honest
One of the most powerful things about Rosé's album Rosie is how she embraces her vulnerability. Instead of hiding her struggles, she chose to be honest.
"I wanted to sing about being vulnerable and confused,"
she says.
For Rosé, it was important for people to see her as just another young woman trying to figure out life.
In a world where stars are expected to be perfect, Rosé’s openness about her pain makes her more relatable. She shows that it’s okay not to have everything figured out and okay to admit when things are tough.
3) The Pressure of Social Media
In her album, Rosé also talks about the pressure of living in the digital world. With millions of followers, she feels the weight of constant judgment. She admits that sometimes she reads comments late at night and gets hurt by what people say.
"Every word, every comment, it crushes me,"
she shares.
Many people can relate to this feeling. The need for approval, especially online, can make us feel small and insecure. Rosé’s song about this experience speaks to anyone who has ever felt judged or misunderstood on the internet.
4) Learning to Be Herself
While making Rosie, Rosé spent long hours in the studio, which made her feel disconnected from herself. Over time, she realized she needed balance and to take care of herself. She stopped going to public events and focused on being herself.
"I pulled back from attending public events. I wanted to access the 'Rosie' inside me, not the 'Rosé' people see,"
she explains.
This period of self-reflection helped her grow and understand that she didn’t need to be perfect. She learned that flaws and mistakes are part of what makes her real.
5) A Message of Hope
Rosie is not just about pain, it’s also about healing and finding strength. Rosé has learned from her past and now wants to help others who feel the same.
"At the end of the day, I want people to understand me,"
she says.
By sharing her story, she hopes others will feel less alone in their struggles.
Rosé’s journey shows that even in tough times, we can grow, learn, and heal. Her music reminds us that we don’t need to be perfect, we just need to be ourselves.
