Biography

Lisa’s net worth is $30 Million. Born Lalisa Manobal in Buriram, Thailand, she is a rapper, singer, dancer, and actress, best known as the main dancer and lead rapper of South Korean girl group BLACKPINK. Since departing YG Entertainment in 2023, she has launched her own label LLOUD Co. and emerged as one of the most globally recognized K-pop solo artists.

Updated March 2026: According to Forbes, Lisa’s debut solo album Alter Ego debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart in March 2025, marking a significant milestone in her independent solo career that has expanded her estimated net worth to $30 million through music, brand endorsements, and acting.

Early Life and Education

Lisa was born Pranpriya Manobal on March 27, 1997, in Buriram Province, Thailand. She later legally changed her name to Lalisa — meaning “the one being praised” — at the advice of a fortune teller. She moved to Bangkok at age three and was raised by her Thai Buddhist mother, Chitthip Brüschweiler, and her Swiss stepfather, chef Marco Brüschweiler. She completed secondary education at Praphamontree School I and II in Bangkok.

Lisa began dancing at age four and competed in numerous contests from an early age, including joining the dance crew We Zaa Cool alongside Got7’s BamBam. In 2010, at age 13, she auditioned to join South Korean entertainment company YG Entertainment during an open call in Thailand. Among approximately 4,000 applicants, she was the only one selected, becoming YG Entertainment’s first non-ethnic Korean trainee. In 2011, she relocated to Seoul to begin formal training, which lasted five years and three months.

Music Career

Lisa debuted as a member of BLACKPINK on August 8, 2016, under YG Entertainment. The group became one of the best-selling girl groups in music history, with their 2022 world tour Born Pink breaking numerous records. Lisa held roles as main dancer, lead rapper, sub-vocalist, and maknae (youngest member) of the group.

Her solo debut came with the single album Lalisa on September 10, 2021. The music video set a record with 73.6 million views in 24 hours and her single “Money” later became the first song by a K-pop solo artist to surpass one billion streams on Spotify. In 2022, she won the MTV Video Music Award for Best K-Pop for “Lalisa,” becoming the first K-pop solo artist to win an MTV VMA.

In 2023, Lisa departed YG Entertainment and Interscope Records and founded her own management and entertainment company, LLOUD Co. She signed a deal with RCA Records under Sony Music Entertainment. Her single “Rockstar,” released in 2024, topped the Billboard Global (Excl. U.S.) chart and surpassed 500,000 units sold in the United States, earning RIAA Gold certification by October 2025.

Her debut studio album Alter Ego, released February 28, 2025 via LLOUD Co./RCA Records, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart, selling 28,000 copies in the United States in its first week. It made Lisa the second BLACKPINK member to reach the top ten as a soloist and her first solo No. 1 on that chart. The album blended hip-hop, trap, K-pop, ballads, and dance-pop across five alter ego personas. She performed at the 2025 Academy Awards on March 2, becoming the first K-pop performer to appear at the Oscars, delivering a rendition of “Live and Let Die.”

In early 2025, Lisa also made her acting debut as Mook — a health mentor at a Thai resort — in HBO’s critically acclaimed series The White Lotus Season 3, which premiered February 16, 2025. She is a Louis Vuitton house brand ambassador (announced July 2024), having previously served as a global ambassador for Celine (2021–2024) and Bvlgari.

How Lisa Built Her $30 Million Fortune

  • Solo music (LLOUD/RCA): By founding LLOUD Co. and retaining master recording rights under her RCA deal, Lisa owns her solo catalog outright — a financial structure rare among K-pop artists. Alter Ego debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales chart, according to Billboard.
  • Brand endorsements: Lisa is the Louis Vuitton house brand ambassador as of July 2024. Previously she served as global ambassador for Celine (2021–2024) and Bvlgari (from 2020).

  • Acting: Her role in The White Lotus Season 3 (HBO/Max) marked her Western acting debut, positioning her for future film and television opportunities in the U.S. market.
  • Real estate: Lisa owns a luxury property in Seoul’s Seongbuk-dong neighborhood and a Beverly Hills home purchased in 2024 for approximately $4 million.

Personal Life

She resides across Seoul and Los Angeles, and purchased a home in Beverly Hills in 2024. She holds nine Guinness World Records for various social media and streaming milestones.
