"Rockstar" is a song by Thai rapper and singer Lisa. It was released through Lloud and RCA Records on June 28, 2024, as the lead single from her upcoming debut studio album, Alter Ego (2025). A hip hop track with hyperpop beats, it was written by Lisa, Brittany Amaradio, James Essien, Lucy Healey, Ryan Tedder and Sam Homaee while production was handled by the latter two. It marked Lisa's first solo single in three years and her first release since departing from YG Entertainment and Interscope Records as a solo artist in 2023.
"Rockstar" received positive reviews from music critics, who described it as Lisa's best solo material yet. It was a commercial success and peaked at number four on the Billboard Global 200 and number one on the Global Excl. U.S., becoming Lisa's third top-ten hit on both charts and her first number-one hit on the latter. It topped the charts in Hong Kong and Malaysia and reached the top ten in Indonesia, MENA, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, and Taiwan. In the United States, the song became Lisa's third and highest-charting entry on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 70.
An accompanying music video was directed by Henry Schofield and released on Lloud's YouTube channel simultaneously with the single's release. The cyberpunk-themed video pays homage to Thai culture and features various locations in Bangkok including Yaowarat Road, which caused a surge in tourist activity in the region. To promote the single, Lisa performed at the MTV Video Music Awards, the Global Citizen Festival, and the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. "Rockstar" received four nominations at the former award ceremony and won Best K-Pop, making her the first solo artist to win the award twice.
