BLACKPINK has reached another milestone. The group is now the first musical artist to surpass 100 million subscribers on YouTube’s Official Artist Channel. This achievement shows the scale of their global reach and the strong connection they have with fans worldwide.
To celebrate the record, YouTube awarded BLACKPINK the Red Diamond Creator Award. This is a rare recognition given only to the platform’s most influential creators. While the Diamond Play Button is already uncommon, the Red Diamond is even more exclusive. BLACKPINK is the first music act to receive it.
Fans in the Philippines played a big role in their success. The country consistently ranked among the top contributors to BLACKPINK’s 3.3 billion annual views.
