New York: An AI-generated interview with Kim Kardashian saying she’s coming out as a trans man has convinced many online.
The video has been cleverly edited to make it seem as though the 43-year-old media personality, socialite and actress is candidly sharing details about her transition as a trans man.
In the TikTok video, footage ripped from Kardashian’s interview with model and Feud: Capote vs. The Swans star Chloë Sevigny for Variety’s ‘Actors on Actors’ interview has been doctored so Kardashian appears to share details of her transition.
“Now you’re transiting. How was that?” Sevigny asks the American Horror Story actor.
Kardashian responds: “I really enjoy it. I just didn’t think I could ever do it and then finally I got the confidence to say I’m going to try it. It is a different language and a whole different experience.”
“It just has to be so much fun. It started off as something that was a challenge to myself.”
The TikTok’s voiceover then jumps in to state that Kardashian is coming out as a trans man during Pride Month “to become the man she’s always wanted to be.”
However, if you look closely enough, which often isn’t the case when users are scrolling on the app, the video is tagged with an ‘AI-generated’ label.
Despite the presence of this, many have still been taken in by the post and its circulation.
