Blinks tell Xian Gaza to leave Jennie alone after billboard stint

Another day, another questionable action from a clout chaser.

Christian Albert Gaza, most infamously known as Xian Gaza, once again made headlines and trended on social media after asking another famous personality to a date. For this time’s publicity stunt, he went overboard and abroad in professing his love—his antics reaching Seoul, South Korea. 

In a Facebook post last October 30, Xian Gaza shared a picture of a billboard sign with his face on it, asking BLACKPINK’s Jennie to a dinner date. The billboard sign reads, “Kim Jennie Ruby Jane, you are my ultimate crush. Can I take you out to dinner and make me the happiest man alive?”

Gaza also added where the billboard sign was located, which is just a few kilometers away from YG Entertainment—the agency managing BLACKPINK, and the hashtag ‘#JennieChristianDinnerDate’. 

As of November 4, 2021, it has garnered 90k reactions, 17k comments (mostly from him and some spam accounts probably) and 26k shares. In another post, Gaza shared that the billboard costed him a whopping 1.5 million pesos. 

If you think that this sounds familiar, you’re not wrong. This is actually the second time Gaza has done something like this, the first time he did it, he asked Filipino actress Erich Gonzales to a coffee date and she said no. (lmao)

Fans of BLACKPINK were obviously not happy with Gaza’s actions, especially after finding out that he scammed a lot of people and even confessed it himself. A lot of Blinks called him creepy and shared all of their sentiments on social media. Some even pointed out that Jennie is currently in Los Angeles, so his move was obviously an unplanned one. 

Blinks are calling YG Entertainment’s attention to protect Jennie at all times, especially from a creep like Xian Gaza. Ugh, when will he ever just shut up, right? It’s always the ugly ones doing these kinds of things.
