Channing Tatum Denies Using Burner Account to Troll Exes

Channing Tatum has refuted claims that he is using a burner Instagram account to troll his ex-partners, Zoe Kravitz and Jenna Dewan. The actor addressed the allegations on his official Instagram page after fans speculated about an account named "Nonya Bidness."

Eagle-eyed followers noticed that the "Nonya Bidness" account had only one follower: Tatum himself. The account had recently commented on a post featuring Kravitz and her fiancé, Harry Styles. "Just here for the hate," read one comment. Another comment from the account appeared to reference Tatum's ex-wife, Jenna Dewan.

In response to the speculation, Tatum wrote on his official account, "Yo truly can't believe y'all think this is what I'm doing with my free time. F**kin hilarious... Also why would I follow a burner account if I didn't want people to connect me to it? Wtf come on. If I really need to say it, I only have one IG account @channingtatum."

Dewan seemingly corroborated Tatum's denial by liking a video from blogger Stephanie Tleiji. Tleiji's video explored the theory that the "Nonya Bidness" account was initially a Channing Tatum fan page. According to Tleiji, the account may have undergone several transformations, with its owner potentially changing the username and removing followers while keeping Tatum as a follower, as he reportedly follows several of his own fan pages.

A user on the "Nonya Bidness" account reportedly responded to a query about its identity by stating, "I’m not him."

The "Nonya Bidness" account also made comments regarding age gaps in relationships, referencing Kravitz, 37, and Styles, 32. "You don’t know me. You have no idea what I would say. But let me give you a hint: they’re both adults, let them live. I am not ‘everyone.’"

Additionally, the account referenced Tatum's past public comments about Kravitz. In a July 2022 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Tatum described Kravitz as one of the "more intentional people" he had ever met, noting her clarity and focus while she directed her debut film, "Blink Twice." Tatum starred in the film during his three-year relationship with Kravitz, which concluded in October 2024.

In a comment attributed to "Nonya Bidness," the user wrote, "When I see these two I think back at how her former fiancé called her the most intentional person he knows. I wonder how contextual he was being…"

When questioned further, the user clarified their remark: "To me intentional = calculated. He was speaking in terms of film-making but leaning towards her as a person in general too. Now she is constantly spotted with Harry compared to the ex who we heard about long before they were seen together. And when they were seen together it was far less frequent."

Representatives for Tatum did not immediately respond to requests for comment from DailyMail.com.
