On Tuesday, September 9, following KATSEYE's attendance at the MTV VMAs 2025, several dating allegations involving Manon and Australian rapper and singer The Kid Laroi landed on the internet. This was largely because the two artists were spotted and photographed leaving an MTV VMAs after-party together, leading to various speculations.
