Kapamilya host Vice Ganda slammed fake news going around social media that he got 50 tickets for the concert of South Korean boy group BTS in the country. In a series of posts on his X (formerly Twitter) account, the It’s Showtime host spoke up about the rumors.
BTS is set to hold a two-day concert in the country in March 2027 at the Philippine Sports Stadium in Bulacan. The highly-anticipated return of the South Korean boy group is made possible by local concert promoter Live Nation Philippines.

“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,” a netizen wrote.
Vice didn’t mince his words as he called out and reposted the netizen’s post to his own account.
“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!” Vice expressed.
The Kapamilya star also reposted another post made by a netizen which the latter already deleted.
“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,” Vice expressed.

Fans of the South Korean boy group have since then showed support towards Vice and maintained that most of them know that the 50 ticket rumors are just baseless allegations and nothing more.
Apart from Vice, content creator Zeinab Harake was also dragged into the issue which she has already denied earlier this week. She assured the fans of the South Korean boy group that she didn’t buy 50 tickets and she is spending quality time with her husband in Europe.
“Tama na sa mga fake news nyo guys as in favorite nyo talaga ako lately no? Hehe kung pwedeng man bumili ng 50 tickets automatic pamimigay ko pa yan sa mga legit na army fans💜 kaso di po pwede yun,” she expressed.
Meanwhile, tickets for the general on sale of the BTS concerts in Bulacan have already been sold out according to Live Nation Philippines. Fans of the boy group are hoping that another day would be added to the Philippine stop as thousands weren't able to buy a ticket.
