Excitement is building across the music world as speculation grows around a potential collaboration between K-pop sensation BLACKPINK’s Lisa and American pop-rock band Maroon 5.
Fans have gone into detective mode after several intriguing clues surfaced online, hinting at a crossover that could be one of the biggest global music events of the year.
The buzz began after Maroon 5’s Instagram account posted a mysterious image on April 23 showing a man and a woman standing side by side in black outfits, gazing out of a high-rise window into the night.
The silhouettes, while anonymous, drew attention for their resemblance to frontman Adam Levine and BLACKPINK’s Lisa.
With Lisa’s distinctive fashion and build matching the figure in the image, fans quickly connected the dots.
Fueling the rumors further, Lisa’s recent Instagram post from Coachella received a like from Maroon 5’s official account.
Adding to the intrigue, Travis Hartley Schneider—Maroon 5’s official photographer—was found to be following Lisa, her label LLOUD, and her managers on Instagram.
These seemingly subtle social media interactions have only strengthened fan theories that a major collaboration is in the works.
Lisa’s trusted makeup artist Maeng also added fuel to the fire by sharing the image of the rumored collab on her Instagram story.
The post was paired with Lisa’s solo track “LALISA” and a caption that read, “I can’t wait!”—which many interpreted as a teasing confirmation.
Maroon 5’s Adam Levine had already revealed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon earlier this month that the band is planning a full comeback this year, with a new single expected before the end of April and an album to follow in the summer.
This timeline aligns closely with the current speculation, leading fans to believe Lisa could be featured on the upcoming release.
Lisa, who has previously amazed audiences with successful solo work and international collaborations, would be a powerful addition to Maroon 5’s signature sound.
If true, this project would mark another major crossover between K-pop and Western pop, building on Lisa’s growing global influence.
While neither party has officially confirmed the collaboration, fans are eagerly awaiting further announcements.
Until then, anticipation continues to grow as the internet buzzes with theories, hopes, and excitement over what could be a landmark musical moment.
