She’s one of the few arts who are able to gather so many people. Happily, the concerts in Paris went well. It was before the terror concerns, and she had some concerts canceled in other parts of the continent. For French people, for all generations and for the economy in the cities where she appeared, it was absolutely unique. This is a phenomenon,” he said. He also addressed a deepfake video of him and Taylor dancing that went viral on social media recently. “I haven’t seen that one, but I saw one this summer where I was made to look like I was kissing one of our male security officers. Millions of people have seen it. Which isn’t a bad thing in itself, but it’s not the reality.” he said, adding that AI can be harmful to vulnerable people and can destabilises people and disinform them.
