Channing Tatum has denied running a burner account used to target his ex-fiancée, fellow actor Zoë Kravitz, and her new fiancé, singer Harry Styles: “Y’all think this is what I’m doing with my free time?”
Tatum, known for his roles in Magic Mike and 21 Jump Street, has been accused by social media users of stalking Kravitz via an Instagram burner account.
Rumors surfaced that claimed Tatum was using an account with the handle @bidness_nonya to leave comments about Kravitz and Styles.
Fans began to suspect Tatum after discovering that “Nonya Bidness” had only one follower: Tatum.
The account would reportedly comment on paparazzi shots of Kravitz and Styles kissing in public, saying, “I’m just here for the hate,” according to People magazine.
While internet sleuths put together evidence suggesting that the account was just a rebranded Tatum fan account (which explains the follow), the rumor mill continued to churn.
So much so that Tatum publicly addressed the drama on Instagram.
Tatum sounded completely dumbfounded, saying he “truly can’t believe y'all think this is what [he’s] doing with [his] 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.”
The original burner account has since been deactivated on Instagram, according to People magazine, but other accounts with similar handles remain active.
One account added a disclaimer to their bio stating that they’re “Not @channingtatum.”
While Tatum may continue to be accused of stalking his ex on Instagram, that account gained traction, boasting 1,840 followers.
Tatum and Kravitz reportedly grew apart
The pair began dating in 2021 when they met during the casting of the psychological thriller Blink Twice, which Kravitz starred in alongside Tatum and produced.
They got engaged in 2023 but called it off in October 2024, and, in an interview with Elle, she said she was very grateful to Tatum and for their work on Blink Twice.
Since then, Kravitz and Styles were seen together, and speculation surrounding their relationship started in August 2025.
Just months later, they were confirmed to be engaged in December 2025.
From Tatum’s statements publicly, the split seemed fairly neutral and amicable.
