Lucky :): The RemakeFans React to BIGBANG Pictures on Twitter and Vincent of YG defends His Sister
The K-Pop world is once again in a fit of confusion since a couple of days ago. Pictures began showing up on Twitter from YG Family members of what seems to be a night of recording, but fans speculate that it was something more between a certain pair.
The first picture to show up that night was from Vincent Marcs of YG Entertainment, who is speculated (along with his twin sister Natalia) to be training to be the first American duo for the entertainment agency. Along with the caption: them two, tho... #reallynow #sickinglysweet #aegyooverload #helpme #barf #TOP @NatalianBombshell, was a picture that angered more fans then made them fan over what they saw. Though it can't reall be clear by the photo, Vincent's description gives away that the couple is in fact Natalia and TOP. The pair appear to be sitting together in a chair, Natalia sitting in the rapper's lap, his arm wrapped around her waist tightly as the pair listens to something that YG songwriter and producer Teddy (also shown in the picture) has created. Fans were immediately angered by the picture, much like it had been months ago when CL of 2NE1 poster a picture of herself and designer Jeremy Scott. Comments include "why would vincent post a picture like this to exploit his sister? some things really need to be kept secret" "jeremy scott is gay, so the picture of him and cl is okay with me, but TOP-oppa is most definitely not" "guys, come on; they are in america now. Natalia is american and this is normal for them" "if I had a girl like that around me, id have her sit on my lap, too" and "this is just too innapropriate. Natalia looks like a and I feel bad for TOP-oppa"
As soon as the comments came online, Vincent immediately took to Twitter, posting this post (split up into parts on the site):
Guys, come on. I didn't mean to anger anyone. I just wanted to show how we are close with everyone. Please do not blame Natalia for this or call her names; she did not know I posted this picture when I did. Please realize that Natalia and I are not Korean. We respect the culture to it's fullest extent. But we aren't going to change our culture for them. Also, Natalia and I were once fans, too. We are happier than I thought possible because of our new YG Family. Being fans also mean we have our biases. I will fully admit my bias was (is) 2NE1's Minzy @mingkki21. She's an amazing girl in person. Natalia's bias was TOP. You can't tell me none of you have ever dreamt of hugging your bias or, like the picture, sit with them. Natalia is living out her dream, as am I. We are making amazing friendships. My sister and TOP have a great friendship, and it makes me happy to see her happiness. Please, please do not bash her. Like I said, we are all fans. We would all love to do these kind of things with our biases. And, after getting his approval, of course, TOP wanted me to tell you all that it was him that pulled Natalia onto his lap. She had insisted that he sit in that chair instead of her, and he knew she was in pain by the shoes she was wearing. He was simply helping a close friend out. Thank you all for reading this, and I hope it changes your opinions about my sister. YG Entertainment is growing worldwide, which means more culture will be added to the Family. Thank you all.
Vincent was really brave for posting what he did, and it just goes to show that the YG Family is, in fact, a family. Along with Vincent's post, other family members flooded the social media site with posts and pictures. These pictures and posts include G-Dragon and Natalia sitting together on a couch, his legs draped over the Italian's legs, a photo of Vincent and Natalia, a guitar in Vincent's lap, a selca of Natalia and TOP pouting at the camera to express their exhaustion, and a selca of Vincent and Minzy wearing Beats headphones.
When YG was asked about the relationship between Natalia and TOP, representatives responded, "Natalia and TOP are very good friends, and are getting closer each day. We can neithr confirm or deny any allegations of the two being romantically involved, and rest assured, Yang Hyun Suk himself is keeping a close eye on their friendship."
With a reply like that, the K-Pop world is hesitant to know what is going to happen between the power rapper and Italian bombshell. Only time will reveal if there is a new YG romance blooming.

"Nat, let's get ready." Lola said as I came into the green room after dancing for Taeyang's My Girl. Right now was Taeyang's other song, and then Daesung's solo. Then, Daesung would introduce me.
It was time for my solo with TOP. I was so nervous, especially after reading various articles about what had happened. Nothing really happened, though, and that's what frustrated me the most; TOP and I had sat together, thats all. Nothing innappropriate had happened, and Vinny tried pointing that out. I was happy for his posts, but I was still scared. What if I got booed onstage?
I walked with her over to the curtain and stripped off my leather micro-mini shorts and white with black lace corset. I slid my heart-back pale pink dress on over my head before peeling off my black sheer tights.
Outfit:
Lola zipped me up as we walked out from behind the curtain and to the makeup chair. She began to curl my hair much like Madeline had on my first date with TOP, soft spirals.
"Natalia, it's Daesung's solo. You have five minutes until you need to get to your position." One of the stage managers said, then left the room.
Lola finished my hair, pinning back some of the back and adding a matching bow, then fixed my makeup so it was a mixture of black-brown eyeliner, pink shimmer eye shadow, and pink lipstick.
I hadn't even seen TOP yet. He must've changed in one of the tents.
"Let's go." Lola grabbed my arm and I followed her out to the backstage area. She handed me my sparkly purple microphone and checked my outfit. "You look sweet. Even a little innocent, which is what we wanted. Now, Top is going to have the camera. Look pretty out there, okay? Breathe."
Our concept for the performance was simple: we were going to act cute and flirty with each other. We didn't have any choreography, but the Kwon twins, Jihye, and Miran were onstage and had choreography. TOP and I were known for our selcas, so that was being incorporated into the performance. YG and stage directors had figured out a mechanism that would project pictures onto the jumbo screens we would take on the camera it was wirelessly hooked to. Hopefully it would go well.
"How is everyone doing tonight?" I heard Daesung ask his fans after Cotton Candy had ended. Fans cheered, and Daesung continued. "Are you all ready to hear something new?" Fans cheered again. "I want you all to cheer really loud. This is her first performance, okay, but she's amazing! I present to you all... Natalia!"
My music started, and I took a breath as I quickly put my noise silencer ear pieces into my ringing ears. The automatic doors of the center stage parted, and I started vocalizing as I stepped forward onto the stage. It was so bright, and all I could see in the stands were a flood of yellow and pink lilght sticks
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it
I'm thinkin' bout her every second, every hour
Do my singin' in the shower
Pickin' petals off of flowers like
Do she love me, do she love me not?
I ain't a player, I just crush a lot
I smiled and walked over to him, too as I sang the first lyrics. I was happy I was wearing low heels. It was meant to give the impression that I was smaller than TOP, but it made me feel better about walking.
When I was close enough to him, he grabbed my free arm and put the camera in front of us. We both smiled, and he took the picture. Sure enough, it showed up on the huge screens.
So dont you worry, baby you got me
At each snap in the song, I swayed my hips from left to right. Instead of taking another selca, TOP pointed the camera at me and took a picture.
I got a bad boy, I must admit it
You got my heart, dont know how you did it
I sang this part to TOP, causing him to purse his lips together and nod in an "oh yeah, I know I'm badass" way. I had to keep myself from laughing as I kept singing.
Ooh it's so crazy you get my heart jumpin'
When you put your lips on mine
We kept walking aound the stage, pausing to take pictures. I sang my heart out, and TOP added in his own "oh" and "yeah" every now and then.
At the front of the stage, the part closest to fans, It was TOP's part. He faced me as he rapped and I danced to the music by swaying my hips to the beat
Uh, uh
I make you feel so fine, make you feel so fine
I hope you hit me on my celly when I sneak in your mind
Said your bed be feeling lonely so you sleepin' in mine
I kept my microphone away from my mouth as I laughed. I could feel my cheeks blushing, and TOP let go of my shoulder long enough to grab my waist and pull me to him again. Fans went crazy, but in a good way.
But baby you an adventure so let me come and explore you
I love it, I love it
I love the way you make me feel
I love it, I love it
The way I love you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, oh baby I'm tryin
We watched the performance backstage and it was so cute. Vinny was really good with his guitar, and Minzy had the perfect voice for this song. Their performance was really mellow, just the pair onstage as they walked around.
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
