Ylona Garcia wowed fans at the recently held Head in the Clouds Music Festival in the United States, and one of the people who may have seen her perform live is Blackpink’s Jennie.
Garcia, who is part of the music collective 88rising, showed her Nov. 7 performance at the Rose Bowl Stadium in California on her Instagram page last Monday, Nov. 8. She can be seen in an all-red outfit while belting out Ariana Grande’s song “Dangerous Woman.”
“Thank you [very] much 88rising for giving me the opportunity to perform at the [Head in the Clouds] festival with amazing people and for amazing people,” she said.
A viral video has also circulated on Twitter, where K-pop star Jennie can be seen holding up her phone and jamming offstage at the music festival. This led fans to speculate that Jennie might have witnessed Garcia’s performance.

Another netizen, @ttoyy_x, pointed out that if Jennie indeed watched Garcia in the music festival, the Filipino-Australian singer might have been noticed by “the world.”
“If Jennie Kim really was watching Ylona Garcia perform, bless her soul. Thank you for noticing the tremendous talent of that girl. Jennie notices [is equal to] the world notices,” he said.
