Chicago: BLACKPINK's Jennie headlined the Lollapalooza Chicago festival on Saturday (U.S. time), closing the main Bud Light stage with an 18-song, roughly one-hour performance that included a surprise unreleased track, her agency said.

According to Yonhap News Agency, OA Entertainment announced on Monday that Jennie appeared as the final act of the day on the Bud Light stage. This coveted slot has previously been held by global headliners, including The Cure, Coldplay, and The Weeknd. Jennie joined this year's top-billed artists, such as Charli XCX, Lorde, and Olivia Dean, marking a significant milestone as the first female K-pop act to headline the festival.

Jennie also captivated her audience with the first live performance of her latest single, "Less than a Lover," which was released on July 24. The crowd enthusiastically sang along as the single played. Adding to the excitement, Jennie debuted an unreleased song for the first time, further energizing the audience.

In addition to her Lollapalooza performance, Jennie is scheduled to perform at Japan's Summer Sonic 2026 festival on August 14.
