00:00 Blackpink may already know how to rock the stage, but now they've rocked a royal event.
00:05 On November 21st, the K-pop band superstars Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé were all in
00:11 attendance for King Charles and Queen Camila's dinner at Buckingham Palace in honor of South
00:17 Korean President Yun Suk-yol and First Lady Kim Kyung-hee's first state visit to the United
00:24 Kingdom.
00:25 The monarch even gave the girls a special shout-out during his speech, according to
00:30 People, in which he said, "It is especially inspiring to see Korea's younger generation
00:34 embrace the cause.
00:35 I applaud Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé, better known collectively as Blackpink, for
00:41 their role in bringing the message of environmental sustainability to a global audience as ambassadors
00:47 for the UK's presidency of COP26, and later as advocates for the UN's sustainable development
00:54 goals.
00:55 I can only admire how they can prioritize these vital issues as well as being global
01:00 superstars."
01:01 Of course, Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé arrived looking gorgeous in perfectly appointed,
01:08 stylish gowns.
01:10 Jisoo and Rosé opted for all black dresses, while Jennie showed up in all white, and Lisa
01:16 rocked a light teal gown covered with sparkles and finished her look with a sheer cape.
01:21 The Korean pop icons weren't the only ones who showed up to the event covered in glitz
01:26 and glam.
01:27 Princess Kate Middleton wore the Strathmore Rose Tiara, one she has never worn before
01:32 and not many other people have either.
01:34 The 41-year-old royal is only the second person to wear the precious tiara in public, as it
01:39 was part of the Queen Mother's collection.
01:42 The name comes from the Queen Mother's father, who was the Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorn.
01:47 The accessory was a wedding present when she married Prince Albert, according to the court
01:51 jeweler.
01:52 Earlier in the day, Kate and her husband, Prince William, welcomed the President of
01:55 South Korea and his First Lady.
01:57 The royal couple have played a key role in welcoming guests since Queen Elizabeth's
02:01 death in September 2022.
02:04 One day after her passing, King Charles made William and Kate the Prince and Princess of
02:08 Wales, which recognized them as senior members of the family.
02:12 Access Hollywood previously spoke with DailyMail.com's Charlie Langston, who talked about how the
02:16 duo are getting ready to lead
02:36 the new monarchy.
03:00 Just look at that.
03:29 (upbeat music)
