About
Muah, No Bars or Mwah, No Bars is a viral lip dub audio on TikTok in which rapper JT of City Girls says, "I don't even say bye no more, I just say, 'muah, no bars.'" "No bars" is a slang term essentially meaning "end of conversation." The video was originally posted to TikTok in mid-December 2023 and went viral over the following weeks, inspiring another viral lip dub audio where a woman says, "muah, blocked," followed by the beat of JT's song "No Bars," which gained similar viral success in January 2024.

On December 15th, JT posted the clip without a caption to her TikTok[2] page, @thegirljtworld, garnering over 4.3 million views in roughly the same span of time (shown below, right).
