Just when we thought the “Mantra” era couldn’t get any more thrilling, BLACKPINK’s Jennie had some serious social media drama! On October 14, fans were buzzing when her X (formerly Twitter) account got suspended and her Instagram started bugging, and guess what? This all happened while promoting her catchy new single “Mantra.”
Jennie took to her Instagram Stories (when she could) to vent her frustrations:

“Instagram is not working on my phone right now. Please be patient with me there is so much I wanna post. Thank you so much for all the love for Mantra. Please fix my ig @instagram.”
After that, BLACKPINK and Jennie fans worldwide started flooding social media with support and demands to get their queen back online. The hashtag #FixJenniesInstagram started trending, proving that Jennie’s fans were super serious, thinking she got hacked.
Hello? @X
Hello @elonmusk, Jennie Kim's account @jennierubyjane has been suspended. Can this be looked into as the account is owned by a real person and has not done any violation on the platform. pic.twitter.com/xbxgt42UvQ
