Angel Reese has firmly dismissed any conversation surrounding the “crazy and weird” salacious photos that recently appeared online.
The LSU Forward clarified that the images in question are “AI-generated” and not reflective of reality.
“Creating fake AI pictures of me is crazy and weird AF!” Reese wrote on X. “Like I know I’m fine & seem to have an appeal to some but I’m literally 21 and yall doing this bs when I would neverrrrrr.”
Yesss!! Who does this and why!?!? Also the faux accounts!! What do they get out of this? It’s ridiculous!

Other celebrities targeting by AI
Angel isnt the only celebritey targeted by AI in a negative way. So far Nicki Minaj, Cardi B and Offset have found themselves on the dark side of the technology.
According to VIBE last year, Nicki Minaj spoke out about an A.I. generated video titled Deep Fake Neighbour Wars that starred herself, Tom Holland, and Mark Zuckerberg.
As entertaining as it may have been, the Queen rapper didn’t authorize her likeness.
In the episode, Minaj is married to an A.I. Holland, and the newlywed couple has disputes with their A.I. neighbor, Mark Zuckerberg.
“HELP!!!” exclaimed the Pink Friday 2 icon on X. “What in the AI shapeshifting cloning conspiracy theory is this?!?!! I hope the whole internet get deleted!!!”

Cardi B was also targeted last year when someone made an A.I. generated audio and photo of her husband, Offset, allegedly “cheating” on her.
The Bronx star threatened to sue whoever it was using technology to insinuate the heinous act.
The faux audio showcased Offset apparently trying to set up a meeting with a woman and also included a skeptical image of the Migos rapper.
Yet, most viewers dismissed it immediately. An image also portrayed the “Worth It” star with a different body-type and hair, according to Complex.
“Offset has allegedly cheated on Cardi B once again. How embarrassing,” the post was captioned. It was immediately flagged for copyright infringement. Cardi B responded with a since-deleted X Voice note threatening a lawsuit on behalf of Set. One user recorded the audio.
“All these little games that you guys want to play online, it’s going to be over with,” Cardi said. “You’re going to be getting sued, and we’re going to make an example out of you. Yeah, and that was a terrible AI voice, by the way.”
