260609 Teen Vogue selected #JENNIE’s performance as one of the most memorable moments of the Gov Ball and gave her high praise, saying that to say she delivered would be an understatement and that she completely commanded the stage.
Jennie debuted a bunch of new songs
As one of Sunday’s headliners, Jennie was one of the most anticipated acts of the festival, and to say she delivered would be an understatement. The BLACKPINK member, who made history as the first K-pop soloist to headline Gov Ball, commanded the stage with an hour-long set centered on her 2025 project Ruby, which included live renditions of hit tracks “with the IE (way up)” and “like JENNIE.” She also surprised fans with her remix of Tame Impala’s “Dracula” and the live debut of “One of the Girls.” Even more exciting? She performed not one, not two, but three unreleased songs, prompting fans and critics alike to think a new Jennie project might come sooner than we think.

Jennie Makes Her Case For Main Pop Girl Stardom
K-pop made a huge splash at this year’s Gov Ball, and Jennie’s performance on Sunday was one of the most impressive pop spectacles of the weekend. The BlackPink star’s performance was chock-full of highlights from Ruby, her debut solo album, but the crowd might’ve gone most wild when she performed the sultry R&B song “One of the Girls,” which she recorded alongside the Weeknd for the TV series The Idol. Bolstered by her jaw-dropping dance crew, Jennie coolly strutted between intricate choreography, effortless disco grooves, and enchanting balladry across her hour-long show. As the sun disappeared behind the stage, she closed out her debut appearance at Gov Ball with the phonk banger “like JENNIE” which had the crowd stomping along with her. Jennie looked like she was having a blast the entire time, and the crowd reciprocated that energy.
