Why Jennie Ruby Jane is already everyone's favorite part of The Idol

When The Idol premiered June 4, audiences clamored to find out just how much sex and debauchery the new drama from Euphoria creator Sam Levinson would be able to cram into 54 minutes.

But they came away mainly talking about Jennie Ruby Jane.

The 27-year-old, who you already know as Jennie from K-pop group Blackpink, plays Dyanne, backup dancer to Lily-Rose Depp's unraveling pop star, Jocelyn. And, just like something out of a movie (or prestige TV), supporting player Jennie went and stole the show.

"I didn't have a lot of time to learn the choreo for the dance scenes," she shared in a behind-the-scenes featurette for MAX. "Thankfully, I do this all the time, so it came naturally to me."

Blackpink—made up of Jennie, Jisoo (Kim Ji-soo), Rosé (Roseanne Park) and Lisa (Lalisa Manobal)—is the highest-charting female Korean group in the U.S. and they had a No. 1 album with 2022's Born Pink, the best-selling album by a female act in South Korea, ever. 

Hence Jennie being ready for whatever choreo The Idol throws at her.

They also made history in 2019 when they became the first-ever female K-pop act to perform at Coachella, and they returned to the festival this year.
