Television host and comedian Vice Ganda has strongly denied online allegations claiming he obtained 50 tickets for the highly anticipated BTS concert scheduled for March 2027 at the Philippine Sports Stadium.
The rumors, which circulated widely on social media, accused the Kapamilya star of using his celebrity status to bypass the strict two-ticket purchase limit implemented by event promoter Live Nation Philippines.
The controversy escalated when a social media user publicly criticized the comedian, posting:
“Mahiya ka naman vice ganda @vicegandako ang hirap kumuha ng ticket ng bts tapos ikaw 50tix pa nakuha mo. 2 lang max sa website pero sayo petiks lang. nakakahiya galawan mo. sana lumaban naman kayo ng patas.”
Addressing the backlash directly, Vice Ganda reshared the critical post on his official account to vehemently refute the claims, expressing deep frustration over the rapid spread of unverified information.
“Mas mahiya ka at ang mga kapwa mong mga bobo na mapagpaniwala sa mga tsismis na pang tanga! Tama yan! Nawa’y magpuyos ang mga puso nyo sa galit na likha ng mga maliliit nyong utak na kayang gaguhin ng fake news!” he wrote.
In a separate post, the host questioned the logic behind the rumors, pointing out that he would have no practical use for such a large number of tickets.
“Bobong mapagpaniwala ampotah! San galing ang 50tix? Aanhin ko yun? 100 ba ang mata at tenga ko kung sakaling manunuod man ako!!! Ni hindi ko nga alam ang sched ko sa araw na yun,” he added.
Following his straightforward defense, members of the BTS fanbase, known as ARMY, rallied behind the comedian. Many fans quickly dismissed the allegations as a baseless fabrication designed to stir up unnecessary internet controversy.
