BABYMONSTER Sets Singapore Ablaze with First-Ever BLACKPINK Cover Stage

BABYMONSTER kicked off their Asia tour with a powerful start in Singapore, unveiling their first-ever BLACKPINK cover stage.

On May 17, BABYMONSTER held the ‘2025 BABYMONSTER 1st WORLD TOUR <HELLO MONSTERS> IN SINGAPORE’ at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. It marked their return to meet local fans for the first time in 11 months since last June’s fan meeting. Reflecting their rapid rise, the group expanded the scale of the show significantly and sold out the arena-level venue, proving their strong growth trajectory.

BABYMONSTER made their entrance as a powerful intro echoed throughout the venue, instantly commanding attention with their overwhelming presence. Opening with the explosive energy of “DRIP” and “BATTER UP,” they kept the momentum going with “CLIK CLAK,” “LIKE THAT,” and “SHEESH,” driving fans into a frenzy.

In particular, the atmosphere soared with the debut of their BLACKPINK cover performance. BABYMONSTER delivered their own interpretation of “Kill This Love” and “As If It’s Your Last,” showcasing their commanding live performance skills and reaffirming their boundless potential as the next torchbearers of YG’s girl group legacy.

Each member seamlessly delivered the newly restructured stages prepared for this tour, racing through the setlist without pause. The fans responded with deafening cheers, filling the venue with energy. BABYMONSTER expressed their gratitude, saying, “We’re so happy to be back in Singapore. Thank you for welcoming us with such unwavering love. We’ll continue doing our best to repay the support you’ve given us.”

Following their successful show in Singapore, BABYMONSTER will continue on to Hong Kong, Ho Chi Minh City, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, and Taipei, where they will connect with over 90,000 fans across Asia. As expected from a group with a solid reputation among music fans, most of the shows have already sold out, showcasing their immense ticket power.

In the second half of the year, the group will head to North America for the second leg of their tour, visiting Toronto, Rosemont, Atlanta, Fort Worth, Oakland, and Seattle. Including prior shows in Seoul, Newark, LA, and Japan, BABYMONSTER will have completed a total of 32 performances across 20 cities worldwide, firmly establishing themselves as a next-generation global powerhouse.
