Who are Blackpink?

Blackpink are a South Korean girl group who are considered the biggest girl group in the world. The group consists of Jisoo, Jennie, Rosé, and Lisa. Debuting in 2016, they’ve gone on to break numerous records and are the most successful Korean girl group internationally, according to Wikipedia. They also were invited to perform at Brigitte Macron's charity event, Le Gala des Piéces Jaunes in Paris recently.

What is the charity event?

Le Gala des Piéces Jaunes also known as the Yellow Pieces gala, is a musical charity event that raises funds for the Hospital Foundation, Billboard noted. The Hospital Foundation is a charity chaired by France’s First Lady, Brigitte Macron. The PSG squad were also invited to the Gala and it’s where Neymar and Lisa finally met.

Neymar's multi-million car collection

Neymar’s love for cars is almost as big as his love for football, as the Paris Saint-Germain superstar has one of the most expensive car collections among his peers.

The Brazilian superstar likes to live a life of luxury, which includes driving some of the most sought-after and expensive vehicles on the market.

Neymar’s car collection - which includes top cars from Ferraris to Lamborghinis - costs in the range of £7.5 million and beyond, Sports Brief earlier reported.
