BLACKPINK is officially back, and fans all over the world can finally look forward to new music from the group. The global girl group will be making their comeback on July 5, which will kick off their much-anticipated DEADLINE World Tour at Goyang Stadium in South Korea. This will be BLACKPINK’s first group performance in almost three years since their last tour.

Also, the July 5th show will be the first time the group performs their brand-new song, which has been confidential. The group’s label, YG Entertainment, confirmed that the new song is ready and will be revealed live on stage. Fans have been speculating about the track after the group was spotted shooting a music video earlier this month, though the title and details of the release have not yet been made public.

BLACKPINK’s DEADLINE World Tour will take them to 31 major cities, including stops in Asia, Europe, and North America, with the final show set to happen in Hong Kong on January 25, 2026. A few weeks ago, the group shared a teaser for the tour, showing Jennie, Rosé, Jisoo, and Lisa riding through the city in a flashy pink convertible.

Their fans known as BLINKs have been eagerly waiting for the group’s return, especially after a long period of solo projects and silence on group activities. While some fans have displayed frustration over the lack of pre-tour promotions and limited new music, many are excited to finally see BLACKPINK together on stage again with new material.

The group’s last major release was in 2022, and though the members have stayed busy with solo music, acting, and brand deals, fans have been demanding fresh group content for years.

Controversial singer Portable has stirred reactions after throwing jabs at popular crossdresser Bobrisky over his recent name change. Bobrisky, born Idris Okuneye, recently announced that he now identifies as Afolashade Amope Okuneye, sparking mixed reactions online. Portable, however, wasn’t having it as he mocked the crossdresser in a video shared on Instagram.

In the video, Portable questioned the reason behind the name switch, teasing that money had been used to change not just the name but even Bobrisky’s chest. He didn’t stop there — the singer dared Bobrisky to a physical fight, boldly stating he would only show up if a Ferrari and N100 million were involved. Portable also sent a message to Bobrisky’s mother, urging her to caution her son. He went further to boast that a single punch from him would ruin Bobrisky’s face, daring him to return to Nigeria for a one-on-one fight.

Meanwhile, Bobrisky recently revealed his new identity on Instagram. He shared that after undergoing several surgical procedures, he now sees himself as a full woman and insists people should accept him that way.

In his words, “It’s time you all accept that Bob is now a woman. I’ve done everything — congratulations to me. I can now enjoy life like every other woman. I’m proud of myself. No amount of insults or trolls will stop me from getting what I want. They tried to bring me down, but they forgot I also have a coconut head. For those asking if I have a womb — I don’t need it. I love how married men spend heavily on me, and I don’t have to carry unwanted pregnancy that will scatter their homes. I’m here to keep marriages safe.”
