It appears creating AI photos of Taylor Swift is fast becoming a thing but the latest subscriber Antonio Brown isn’t having it easy. The former NFL star plunged himself into a pool of controversy by sharing a suggestive photo of him and the famed crooner and girlfriend of Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce.
Taylor Swift’s AI-Generated Photo Viral on X
In the cartoonized photo, Antonio stood wearing his Pittsburgh Steelers gear, locking lips with Taylor, who donned a skimpy cheerleader outfit. Their virtual exchange took place in front of a packed stadium, with fans cheering on. The AI-generated photo appeared like a direct stab at Taylor and Swifties who have dominated the NFL season.
He also took a dig at Giselle Bundchen (albeit with her name misspelled) in his caption, seemingly establishing Taylor as his new target barely a year after dragging the supermodel into his explosive feud with Tom Brady. Antonio added the caption,
“Move over Jizelle, what these Swifties talking bout? #CTESPN.”
Antonio Brown Faces the Wrath of Taylor’s Fans
Before long, the AI-generated photo incurred the wrath of Taylor Swift’s fans, who immediately came for Antonio Brown. Via X, many shot daggers at the football star, reminding him of the weight of his inappropriate post. One fan wrote,
“Yeah bro, Swifties are coming for you.”
Another wrote,
“The lawsuit will hit harder than Burfict.”
A third fan wrote,
“The fact that you’re not scared of Swifties tells me you have no idea what they’re capable of. RIP Bro.”
Some fans gave Antonio Brown a direct warning, noting that the AI-generated photo of Taylor Swift was his final strike after his multiple unfiltered social media shenanigans. One X user wrote,
“Swifties don’t play. You still have time to delete this.”
Another wrote,
“Your social security number will be on the internet in (T)-Minus (pun intended) 5 minutes.”
Another user wrote,
“Bro how did the power structure not cancel you yet?”
A fourth commented,
“It’s over for you buddy. Good luck.”
A Call to Keep AI-Generated Images in Check
Some X users also voiced concern about the prevalence of provocative AI-generated shots of Taylor Swift on the platform. Notably, many fans have tagged such photos as sexual harassment, given that they are mostly generated and shared without the consent of the targeted party. Back in January, Taylor fell victim to another unsolicited social media post.
Then, it involved several AI-generated photos of Taylor Swift of explicit nature, which flooded X. Before long, Swifties fished out the identity of the perpetrator, publicly sharing intimate details about him including his home address, name, and photo. Despite calls for a lawsuit against him, Taylor failed to comment on the issue.
However, Swifties fought valiantly to defend the songstress, instigating the “Protect Taylor Swift” trend. The controversy drew the attention of many top figures, including the White House. Antonio might have gotten away with tons of foul moves on social media, but if history was anything to go by, he wouldn’t know what hit him this time.
