He was born in the United States and spent some years in Australia before his music career. According to IMDB, he was also an executive producer on BLACKPINK's 2019 Netflix documentary film Light up the Sky.BLACKPINK fans believe that the shared nature of their work and the Australian connection they share could have been a common conversation between BLACKPINK's Rosé and Jeremy Erlich, but one cannot conclude that they are allegedly in a relationship just because of that.BLINKSTATS@BLINKSTATSSince when was it unacceptable to put your arm around someone during a photo?
