Black Pink Earns Their Star

 A big CONGRATULATIONS to Black Pink for earning their star in the Dance Queens Walk of Fame!  They performed a knockout show on the Zhaza Zerbino stage at the Dance Queens sim, and WOW did their audience enjoy the show.  Black Pink is led by SarahRho as Jisoo and performs as a tribute band that sings and dances on detailed sets with special effects, tight choreography and darling costumes.  The band includes Mikiko as Jennie, Ginty as Lisa and Janji as Rose, performing as the wildly successful KPop band in creative tribute shows across the grid.  Let's take a look at some pictures from the show, then read an Interview with Second Life's Black Pink, getting to know them better.  And finally, pictures from the STAR paver placing ceremony!

THE INTERVIEW

1. How and when did your troupe form?

About a year ago as sl dance to me was getting stagnant, both visually and performance-wise, flashing boobies and stuff may work but i think dance should tell a story a little but more than it should be at the present

2. Where do you usually perform, what is your usual venue?

Showstyle Avenue

3. What is your troupe's primary goal in dance?

To Be different, to be uplifting, and show that you can be different.

4.  What can an audience member expect to see at one of your shows?

Time spent, watching something come alive, with visuals of particles, lighting, and group dancing, and occasionally single dancing.

5. Who owns the troupe and who directs or manages it?

That would be me, Jisoo (SarahRho) the local evil person who drops things on Gunna's head.

6. As a Director or Manager, what is your favorite thing about having a troupe?

Creativity, without it things would be rather blan.

7. As a Director or Manager, what is your least favorite thing about having a troupe?

A lot the time it takes to do things, time is a very linear thing but in a lot of things there is never enough of it to spare.

8. What directive would you give to someone who wants to join your troupe?

Be ready for a wild ride, as who knows what i will end up doing.

9. What is your favorite food, favorite drink, and please tell us about any pets that you have.

No pets, stupid rentals laws and so on, food wise love a good hot meal with jalapenos or chili, pizza, not a huge eater of takeaway as home cooking is always better.
