Kara NasvigRoseanne Park—known to the world simply as Rosé—has lived a remarkable journey of reinvention. Born on 11 February 1997 in Auckland, New Zealand, she moved with her family to Melbourne, Australia, before relocating to Seoul at age 16 to train as a K-pop artist.
Her rise as member of BLACKPINK was only the opening chapter. With her solo debut album rosie (2024), she charted her own course—embracing English-language songwriting, raw emotion and a global sound that blends pop, rock, and introspection.
2025 has brought new peaks: she dropped the single “Messy” for the F1® The Movie soundtrack. She also made fashion headlines at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, where her hit “APT.” (feat. Bruno Mars) earned her the Song of the Year award—making her the first K-pop female solo artist to take that honour.
But her influence extends far past chart positions. At the 2025 Met Gala, she stepped onto the red carpet in a styling moment that mirrored her evolution: tailored, bold, unmistakably hers.
Rosé occupies a rare intersection: the globe-trotting pop star who still draws from her roots; the fashion muse whose style is studied; the musician who writes her own rules. For her, success isn’t a destination—it’s a new beginning.
“Each of us has gone out and been inspired… and now we’re coming back to each other with good energy,” she said recently of her return with BLACKPINK.
As photogenic as she is sonically compelling, Rosé’s latest chapter is already making history. Whether she’s on the runway, the recording booth, or the stage with tens of thousands of fans, the message is clear: this is her era. And we’re all watching.
From Melbourne to worldwide stages, from band member to solo icon — Rosé isn’t just being seen. She’s being heard. She’s being remembered. She’s setting the tone.
