Ellen DeGeneres announces the May sweeps lineup for The Ellen DeGeneres Show. BTS, Bono, Maroon 5, Shawn Mendes, Foo Fighters, and more will all guest on the talk show.
The K-pop band is set to wrap up the May sweeps month on May 25 with a performance of "Fake Love." The song is featured in the group's Love Yourself: Tear album.
In November 2017, BTS made its debut on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. During the members' interview with DeGeneres, they said that they are open to collaborating with more western artists. BTS previously teamed up with The Chainsmokers and Steve Aoki on "Best of Me" and "Mic Drop," respectively.
At the time, V said that he wants to work with Post Malone. He addressed the singer directly and asked him to please call him. As of late, it is still unclear whether or not Malone reached out to V and BTS.
