- Katy Perry had an AI counterpart at the Met Gala
- Even her mom was tricked
- It seems to be only the beginning
In an era where technology blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, Katy Perry proves that you don't need to attend the Met Gala to make a fashion statement. The "California Gurls" singer recently shared a hilarious exchange with her mom, who was completely duped by an AI-generated image of Perry dazzling at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
AI Takes Over the Met Gala!
"Ha Feather! Didn't know you went to the Met. What a gorgeous gown. You look like the Rose Parade, you are your own float lol," texted Perry's mom, falling for the digital masterpiece.
Perry's witty response? "lol mom the AI got you too, BEWARE!" This amusing interaction, posted on Instagram, highlights the growing influence of artificial intelligence in our daily lives—even fooling our nearest and dearest.
The post featuring the fake Perry at the Met Gala, themed "The Garden of Time," went viral, amassing over 13 million views. It's a testament to the power of AI, with the post clarifying, "This was created with AI.
The stairs are also from 2018, not 2024." Perry, known for her head-turning Met Gala outfits, notably her Oscar de la Renta dress in 2022, had to skip this year's event due to work commitments.
Katy Perry wasn't the only celebrity given the AI treatment. Stars like Rihanna and Selena Gomez also received virtual makeovers, showcasing potential looks they might have sported at the gala.
Despite their absence, these digital renditions captured the imagination of fans worldwide, proving that with AI, the possibilities are endless.
