2NE1 to teach choreography on ABC's 'The Bachelor'

Get ready for a surprise, because 2NE1 will be making an appearance on the American show 'The Bachelor'!

But don't panic because you think it's really weird that these 4 independent ladies will be on a show vying for romantic attention from a guy. According to ABC, 2NE1 will be teaching six contestants how to dance to their choreography. A production team along with certain members from the upcoming season of 'The Bachelor' traveled to Korea back in September.

In fact, the contestants (and the bachelor Juan Pablo Galavis) even came up on stage as back-up dancers for the girls' mini-concert in Seoul. While the performance wasn't perfect, everyone gave their best to rock on. Check out the fancam below.

Lorde says she likes 2NE1 + wants to collaborate with Lee Hi

Popular teenage artist Lorde, who is best known for her hit song "Royals," had previously said she would like to write lyrics for a K-Pop group.  She further showed her interest in K-Pop during an interview with Universal Music.  

She said, "Personally, I really like K-Pop groups.  I particularly like the musician Lee Hi.  I want to try a collaboration with Lee Hi.  I also like 2NE1."  She even sang a little bit of Lee Hi's "1,2,3,4."

Lorde, who is the same age as Lee Hi, explained her reasons for liking K-Pop: "It is because their melodies and songs are very interesting.  Their melodies are a lot more charming than the Western pop which I grew up listening to.  If it is pop music, it should be to that extent."

She continued, "If I get the chance, I definitely want to go to Korea and meet everyone.  I hope that my present album has music that holds significance to everyone."
