J-Hope from the K-pop group BTS recently met with the First Lady of France, Brigitte Macron at Le Gala des Pièces Jaunes.
Having been invited to perform at the charity event by the First Lady, he was spotted interacting with her several times.
The two were spotted embracing after she went to greet the rapper personally, and they also took a picture backstage along with the French President, Emmanuel Macron.
While some of his fans were elated by his presence at the event and the subsequent meeting, others were wary of it due to Macron’s political and personal history.
One user wrote, “Is it only French army that understands how her and the president are using those popular artists to sway people in their favors ??? Wake up we keep saying how bad it is to associate them with the tannies. Idc if they took a pic with him repost or wtv but don’t write stupid things.”
“Mind you she is a fascist, Islamophobe and a pedophile. STOP HYPING UP EVERYTHING AND GET OUT OF YOUR BUBBLES,” added another.
One user claimed that J-Hope was being used to manipulate a political advantage, “BTS is being used a political tool AGAIN . We seriously need to stop glazing these fking politicians. She's not an ARMY she's just trying to use them to sway gp opinion on her and her bum a** husband.”
