Who is Candice Joke?

Sadly, Candice Joke is not actually a real person - the whole thing started out as a joke and suddenly became wildly popular on TikTok.

You bait someone into asking you who Candice is by telling them you know someone with that name.

When they inevitably ask who "Candice" is, you land the joke and roast them for not seeing it coming.

But the joke has evolved into a strange new meme format, with TikTok users cutting the video before delivering the punchline.

So, to summarize, Candice can be whoever you want them to be.

What is the Candice Joke on TikTok?

The name "Candice" is used in the place of "Can this?" to trick friends and family.

TikTok users have been asking friends and family if they know about "Candice" - or what happened to her.

They usually reply with "Candice who?" - a typical response to a question like that.

The person will then reply with something like, "Candice fit in your mouth!" - or something rude or funny to that effect.

But now, many videos cut out before delivering the punchline - which has made it an inside joke on TikTok.

The joke has now evolved to a new format where people get their victim to ask who Candice is, before staring into the camera, turning black and white and adding creepy music.

The comment sections have been flooded with users asking who Candice is, and what the joke is.

So, moral of the story, if someone asks you who Candice is - don't fall for it, and especially don't respond with "Candice who?"

Here's another one to try on your friends and family - tell someone your first name is "Deez" and when they ask for your surname, say "Nuts".
