14 Female Friendships in Music
Valentine's Day? Not before Galentine's Day! February 13th has become an unofficial holiday to celebrate friendship between fabulous ladies. Despite an industry that often pits women against each other, here are 14 pairs of musician BFFs who understand the importance of solidarity!
CL & Dara of 2NE1
The K-pop scene is filled with girl groups that act like sisters, but we have a soft spot for 2NE1 members CL and Dara, mainly stemming from one heartfelt story. When the group was in Japan during the 9.0-magnitude, Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in 2011, Dara quickly called her pal and group leader. Even as the building was shaking, CL came to get her, walking down 34 flights together.

Date: 2014-02-15 10:18 am (UTC)So when the earthquake happened, Dara was on the 34th floor of their hotel. She immediately called CL and waited for the line to get through. Dara was like, “Where are you?” and CL said, “Hold on and don’t move. I’ll go pick you up. Hold on.” CL told Dara, “don’t take the elevator and stay where you are.” CL then went up from the 31st floor to the 34th floor to get Dara. During that time, CL thought, “I thought we were going to die. If we were going to die, then we’ll die. But dying together would be the right way to go.”
When they reached the ground floor, Dara said that they met up with the other members and saw people around her praying just like in the movies.
After the earthquake, they were traumatized for a long time. When they would sleep, CL thought of tying their hands together with the belt of a bath robe. Dara would say, “If there’s an earthquake you have to wake up! If my hands start shaking, you have to wake up!” And CL would say, “Yes unnie, go tie it up.”
