The two crossed paths at the Spring\/Summer 2026 Celine show, where Wintour personally invited Taehyung to <em>Vogue World: Hollywood<\/em>, a high-profile fashion event set to take place in Los Angeles on October 26.<\/p>\n<p>In a video that quickly went viral, Wintour is heard warmly saying, \u201cWe\u2019re hoping that you\u2019re coming to our event in Hollywood in October.\u201d Taehyung, visibly surprised and excited, responded with a delighted \u201cWow!\u201d As Wintour gently pressed for a yes, he smiled and replied, \u201cOkay!\u201d\u2014a moment that fans quickly took as an informal acceptance. Wintour wrapped up with, \u201cThat\u2019s a yes? Excellent! You need to come.\u201d It was an elegant and friendly exchange, until a sudden interjection changed the mood.<\/p>\n<p>Before the conversation could go any further, Taehyung\u2019s manager stepped in, saying, \u201cWe\u2019ll try to figure out. So, we have a lot of things to work on. We\u2019ll let you know.\u201d Wintour, unfazed, simply replied, \u201cHe needs to come.\u201d While her tone remained composed, fans immediately picked up on the shift\u2014and it triggered a wave of backlash online.<\/p>\n<p>Many fans voiced frustration at HYBE, accusing the company of exercising too much control over Taehyung\u2019s solo interactions and opportunities. The manager\u2019s interruption\u2014especially during a high-profile moment with someone like Anna Wintour\u2014felt unnecessary to fans who believe Taehyung is more than capable of responding for himself. Some even claimed this was part of a larger pattern, suggesting that HYBE has often downplayed or delayed his individual endeavors.<\/p>\n<p>Though HYBE hasn\u2019t responded to the growing criticism, the conversation hasn\u2019t died down. What stirred even more speculation was a development the very next day. On July 20, fans noticed that Lisa Love, Vogue\u2019s West Coast Director and a major figure in the fashion world, had followed V on Instagram. This move was particularly striking since Lisa doesn\u2019t follow any other K-pop idols\u2014only Taehyung. That single follow set social media ablaze with theories.<\/p>\n<p>Fans are now convinced that, despite the manager\u2019s cautious response, Taehyung might actually be gearing up to attend Vogue World. Some even suspect something bigger may be in the works\u2014perhaps a solo Vogue cover or feature timed with the Hollywood event.<\/p>\n<p>Though nothing has been officially confirmed by Taehyung or HYBE, the moment has only intensified excitement around his future in the fashion and global entertainment scenes. Whether or not he shows up in Los Angeles this October, one thing is clear: V\u2019s star power isn\u2019t just shining\u2014it\u2019s unstoppable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On July 19, 2025, a seemingly casual yet highly impactful moment between BTS\u2019 V (Kim Taehyung) and fashion legend Anna\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":83423,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[3673],"class_list":["post-83422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-v"],"reading_time":"3 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83422","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=83422"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/83422\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=83422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=83422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=83422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
