Many TikTok users are opening the app and running into something that makes no sense at all. When they visit Bad Bunny’s profile for the first time, they find his account already blocked. The strange part is this, most of them say they never searched for him, never followed him, and never clicked on his page before. The issue started quietly but grew fast once people began sharing screen recordings. More users checked for themselves and saw the same thing. Within hours, the question arised across TikTok: how can someone be blocked if you never blocked them?So far, there is no clear answer from TikTok. With no official statement, users are left guessing. Some think it is just a technical error. Others believe something bigger may be happening behind the scenes. Either way, the mystery has caught wide attention and left many fans confused.

One of the first people to talk about the issue was a TikTok user named Katie, who uses the handle @kators88. In her video, she explained that she had only recently heard about Bad Bunny after seeing online talk about a possible Super Bowl halftime performance. Curious, she started listening to his music and liked it.When Katie went to visit his TikTok profile, she was shocked. The account was already blocked.She said, “This is weird. This is suspicious. How would I ever have him blocked? I have never been on his TikTok before. I did not even know he existed. What is going on?”Her comments section filled up quickly. Many people said they were seeing the same thing on their own accounts. Several claimed they had never searched for Bad Bunny either, yet his page showed up as blocked.Another creator, Brandon Conner, decided to check for himself. He shared his reaction in a video and said, “I never listen to Bad Bunny. When I went to his TikTok account and saw that it said I blocked him, I was confused. I have never been on his page. Something strange is happening.”As more users posted proof, two main ideas began to spread. Some believe this is a TikTok glitch, possibly linked to outside apps that manage or filter accounts. Others think it could be part of a mass-blocking system, where certain tools automatically block famous accounts without users realizing it.For now, TikTok has not explained what really caused the issue. While fans try to figure it out, Bad Bunny has not commented and continues focusing on his music. Any talk about a Super Bowl halftime appearance remains unconfirmed and only fan speculation at this point.
