Vice Ganda Rejects Claims of Bulk BTS Ticket Purchase
Vice Ganda has strongly denied accusations circulating online that he was involved in the alleged bulk reservation of BTS concert tickets for the group’s upcoming two-day show in the Philippines scheduled for March 13 and 14, 2027, at the Philippine Sports Stadium in Bulacan. The concert is part of BTS’s Arirang World Tour and has drawn massive attention from fans, especially after tickets sold out quickly during the official sale periods.
The issue began when online posts claimed that certain individuals were able to reserve 40 to 50 tickets, far beyond the official limit of two tickets per account. This sparked frustration among many fans, known as ARMY, who struggled to secure tickets during the general sale held on June 11, 2026, following earlier presales on June 9 and 10.
As the rumors spread, Vice Ganda was wrongly identified by some netizens as one of those allegedly involved. This led to criticism and backlash from BTS fans who believed the claims without verification.
On social media platform X, Vice Ganda directly responded to the accusations and firmly denied reserving or buying large quantities of tickets. He expressed frustration over what he described as baseless online gossip and misinformation, saying that people should not easily believe unverified claims. He also pointed out that even his own attendance at the concert is uncertain due to his busy schedule, making it impossible for him to secure such a large number of tickets.
Vice further questioned the logic of the accusation, emphasizing that he has no need for dozens of tickets and that the claims were completely false. His replies showed strong irritation toward those spreading the rumor, urging the public to be more responsible in consuming and sharing information online.
Despite the controversy, Vice has long been open about being a fan of BTS, composed of RM, Suga, Jin, J-Hope, V, Jimin, and Jungkook. He previously shared his excitement about joining the group’s fanbase in 2021, expressing gratitude toward ARMYs who welcomed him warmly.
