India, Feb. 25 -- K ATSEYE member Daniela Avanzini's father, Rafael Avanzini, recently faced backlash online for making racial slurs and inappropriate remarks about BLACKPINK's Lisa. Rafael came under fire after old comments resurfaced on social media. The posts appeared following news of fellow KATSEYE member Manon Bannerman's indefinite hiatus, when a fan compared Daniela to both Manon and Lisa on Threads. Rafael replied, "Daniela does not need to be like Lisa or Manon," adding, "KATSEYE does not run based off of Manon. The girls will be fine." However, another comment comparing Daniela to Lisa drew outrage for its tone. Rafael wrote, "(Daniela is) Much better trained. Plus, she is also Latina, a major advantage against Asian dancers.

Many criticized Rafael for dragging Lisa into the discussion and warned that such statements could harm Daniela's image. One fan even wrote that Rafael was hurting his own daughter's career. As screenshots of the posts spread across platforms, the criticism escalated, turning the situation into a broader controversy. HTC...
