Beyoncé- 458K (2018)#2. BLACKPINK- 290k (2023) Blackpink got 290K simultaneously and 2.9 million views throughout the day. The 250 million reported by Rolling Stones is not just numbers from the live BLACKPINK concert but, from all the shows that were broadcast on the official Coachella YouTube channel that year. Any other statement is MISINFORMATION.
