Yet, when news of the collaboration was shared online, it sparked backlash as many fans pointed out that the brand was part of the boycott list amid the genocide in Gaza. Many idols have come under fire for working with brands that are on the list, and Jennie’s upcoming announcement with Vaseline has earned the same criticism.
