A student from Phichit province has become an overnight sensation after posting a video on TikTok. The clip, featuring her cover of Lisa from BLACKPINK’s latest single Rockstar, has garnered over 5 million views in just one night.
Kulthida Suthiprapha, known as Nong Yeehwa, is a 16 year old student at Taphan Hin School. She first caught public attention when photos of her selling fried chicken, bearing a striking resemblance to Lisa, went viral. This unexpected fame led to an invitation for Nong Yeehwa to shoot a music video in Yaowarat yesterday, July 5. She documented the experience on her newly created TikTok channel, @yiwalisu, where she posted a video of herself dancing to Rockstar in the bustling streets of Yaowarat.
“I have Lisa as my idol.”
The video quickly amassed over five million views, turning Nong Yeehwa into an internet sensation almost instantly.
The story began when a single snapshot of Nong Yeehwa, while she was selling fried chicken, went viral. The photo’s rapid circulation can be attributed to her uncanny resemblance to Lisa, whose real name is Lalisa Manoban.
