New York: AI-generated pictures of Katy Perry at the Met Gala 2024 have gone viral on social media despite the pop star skipping the A-list event this year.
Popular American singer Katy Perry recently shared a picture of herself in a huge floral gown standing on the Metropolitan Museum of Art staircase in New York City, posing for the photographers. Clearly, there is nothing unusual in that, except for the fact that it is fake.
Two fake AI-images of the singer were previously going viral on the internet. Many fans did fall prey to this fake viral image and commented saying “I don’t want to see any other picture, she won this is beautiful” another posted, “My favorite so far.” One user also commented, “She understood. Gorgeous.”
Katy Perry took it to social media to clarify that it is not her.

Perry took it to Instagram to share two AI-generated images of herself, stating that she couldn’t make it to the event. She also shared her mother’s reaction when she saw this fake image. She told Perry, “Didn’t know you went to the Met. What a gorgeous gown, you look like the Rose Parade, you are your own float lol”. To this, Perry responded saying, “lol mom the AI got to you too, BEWARE!” Two images were previously going viral on the internet. Katy Perry took it to social media to clarify that it is not actually her.
After realising that the images are fake, one commented, “I really reposted this believing it was true. AI is getting way too good cause you ATE in the metaverse.” while other wrote, “The AI image of you was better than all of tonight’s creations.”
Rihanna, yet another A-lister had to miss the event. Hence, a user on X share an AI image of the singer in a mermaid-style white gown with a massive circular armpiece with flowers embroidered on it. This looks like a believable fashion choice for Rihanna for the Met Gala 2024, as it goes by the theme of “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.”

Images of Lady Gaga in a creation too good to be true also began doing the rounds on X. Keeping in mind Gaga’s elaborate appearances over the years, it was not too unbelievable to think that the images were ‘fake’.

Many attendees chose a floral look as they were told to dress in “Garden of Time” attire for the invite-only event, known for its A-list celebrities and extravagant outfits. Attendees walked a white and green carpet surrounded by lush foliage and white flowers up the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This year’s exhibit, called “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,” will feature rare items that have been dormant in the Costume Institute’s permanent collection, including designs so fragile that they will be displayed only through animation and projections.
