White Influencer Called Out After Posting AI Image of Her Face on Black Content Creator's Body

Model Tatiana Elizabeth called out influencer Lauren Blake Boultier for using AI to superimpose her face over Elizabeth's in a photo

NEED TO KNOW

• "Pretending to be somewhere you weren't, in something you've never worn, as someone you're not... for social media. It's a little scary," Elizabeth wrote on her Instagram Stories

• Boultier later told TMZ she took "full responsibility" for the incident

Influencer Lauren Blake Boultier said she takes "full responsibility" after another influencer, Tatiana Elizabeth, accused her of using AI to superimpose her face on Elizabeth's body in a two-year-old photo of herself at the U.S. Open.

After Boultier posted the now-deleted photo on Instagram, Elizabeth posted toThreadsand her Instagram Stories to call out the alleged use of AI to put her face onto Elizabeth's body— and on a photo that Elizabeth first posted two years ago. Boultier, who is White, has over 1.6 million Instagram followers.

In the Monday, March 30, Threads post, Elizabeth shared a screenshot of Bouliter's photo next to her original, taken at the 2024 U.S. Open. In the original photo, Elizabeth, who is Black, wore a white tennis skirt, a white short-sleeved cropped t-shirt, along with a green-and-white striped cardigan tied around her shoulders, paired with a coordinating green and white Louis Vuitton purse.

Boultier's photo shows her in the exact same outfit, pose and lighting, along with the same background.

"Bar for bar," Elizabeth began Monday's Threads post. "The weirdest part about this is that it's not even an AI influencer. This is a real person who used AI to put her head on my body. She geotagged MIAMI as if she's at the Miami Open. When my photo was taken at the US open two years ago."

"Well this is..... peculiar...I was here too!!" Elizabeth continued on herInstagram Stories. "In this same exact outfit and the same watch, same bag, picture was taken at the same angle even..omg we even have the same tattoo!!!!!!?"

Elizabeth then re-shared the original photo on her Instagram Stories. "Pretending to be somewhere you weren't, in something you've never worn, as someone you're not... for social media. It's a little scary," Elizabeth concluded.

The influencer also shared a TikTok video about the situation, where she added, "And by no means am I trying to bash this girls into health is real, and I'm not a bully... I'm just, I'm a little perplexed."

"I just want to know what was the reason," Elizabeth continued. "Cause social media got to our heads that much that we are completely disregarding couth?"

"Tatiana hopes this situation raises awareness about how AI can blur reality, which can be unsettling. As of now she has not been in contact with the other party," a rep for Elizabeth tells PEOPLE.

"That shouldn't have happened, and I take full responsibility," Boultier toldTMZ Sportson Wednesday, April 1.

"This came from an A.I. content system my team uses to generate images at scale," Boultier told TMZ. "I did not see the original image or intentionally set out to copy anyone's work, but that doesn't change the outcome."

"I understand this impacted another creator, especially when it comes to respecting original work, and I never want to contribute to that kind of frustration or harm within the creative community that I have been a part of for 10 years," Boultier added.

"I take full responsibility for what appears on my platforms," Boultier wrote in a WednesdayInstagramstatement, in which she also said she spoke with Elizabeth privately to apologize.

"I will have more oversight with my agency to ensure my content is handled with the integirty and respect it deserves moving forward," Boultier continued. "I am deeply sorry for the hurt this has caused the original creator and the community at large."

Also on Wednesday, Elizabeth posted screenshots of two apologies she says Boultier sent her via Instagram DM onThreads, as well as the response she sent to Boultier.

Courtney Lovewants Dave Grohl to call off his fans, whom she says are still giving her a hard time after years of feuding with the Foo Fighters rocker.

"Like come out with it and just say we're cool. Like come out with it. Right?" she said Wednesday onThe Magnificent Others With Billy Corganpodcast. "Be man enough to man up."

Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with ourEW Dispatch newsletter.

The widow of late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain has a long history with Grohl, who joined the band in 1990.

Cobaindied in 1994at 27.

Afterward, Grohl and the Hole rocker argued, sometimes over Nirvana, in court.

But both said they had made amends when Nirvana was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.

"Early on in the evening I just tapped her on the shoulder," Grohl toldRolling Stone. "She turned around and I just said, 'Hey.' She said, 'Hey.' Then we gave each other a big hug. I said, 'How are you?' She goes, 'Good, how are you?' I said, 'All right.' And she said, 'Let's do this. Let's rock this tonight.'"

He added, "We're family, no matter what. And we all love each other, no matter what."

Love said it's important Grohl say the situation between them remains okay, because he's someone that straight men look up to.

"We're cool, but you won't say it because you're afraid you'll lose your audience?" she asked.

"Dave," Love said, "it would really behoove me if the straight white males that are your base, if you will, stop picking on me. Millennials in particular. Gen Z is not picking on me anymore."

The Smashing Pumpkins frontman confirmed that he, too, had seen that Grohl and Love have smoothed things over.

"I can confirm that I've spent time with you and Dave together," Corgan said, "and Dave doesn't have any issue with you."

Entertainment Weeklyhas reached out to reps for Grohl.

Tiger Woods Gets Judge Approval to Leave U.S. for Treatment Due to 'Privacy' Concerns

A Florida judge has granted Tiger Woods permission to leave the United States as he seeks treatment following his DUI charge

NEED TO KNOW

• Woods' lawyer requested the motion, citing "privacy" concerns for the pro golfer

• Woods will undergo inpatient treatment in an "intensive highly individualized and medically integrated program" outside of the U.S, according to the filing

Tiger Woodshas been granted permission to travel out of the country as he seeks treatment following hiscar crash and DUI charge.

A Florida judge granted Woods, 50, permission to leave the state to undergo treatment outside of the United States, according to court documents obtained and reviewed by PEOPLE on Wednesday, April 1.

Woods' treating physician recommended he seek treatment at a facility out of the country "based upon the Defendant's complex clinical presentation the urgent need for a level of care that cannot safely or effectively be done within the United States," per the documents.

The request to leave the country for treatment was also made due to concerns that the golfer's "privacy has been repeatedly compromised,"

"Ongoing medical scrutiny and public exposure create significant barriers to his care and would result in setbacks and an inability to fully engage in treatment," Woods' lawyer, Douglas Duncan, argued in the filing.

"Based upon Defendant's treating physician's opinions, inpatient treatment at the out of country treatment facility is medically necessary due to the Defendant's complexity, and need for an intensive highly individualized and medically integrated program," the documents said.

Woods will have no restrictions on travel as he faces the DUI charge and a charge for refusal to submit to a urine test, both of which he plead not guilty to on March 31, according to the documents.

The out of country treatment facility will "provide continuous monitoring and the ability to rapidly adjust treatment interventions in a highly controlled environment" for Woods, his lawyer said in the filing.

The golferbroke his silence on the March 27 rollover car crashin a post on social media on March 31, in which he said he would be seeking treatment.

"I know and understand the seriousness of the situation I find myself in today," he said onX.

"I am stepping away for a period of time to seek treatment and focus on my health. This is necessary in order for me to prioritize my well-being and work toward lasting recovery," Woods continued. "I'm committed to taking the time needed to return in a healthier, stronger, and more focused place, both personally and professionally. I appreciate your understanding and support, and ask for privacy for my family, loved ones and myself at this time."

Sheriff John M. Budensiek alleged in a press conference after the accident that Woods appeared "lethargic" and had "signs of impairment" while speaking with officers after the crash. Woods blew "triple zeros" on a breathalyzer test, but he allegedly refused a urinalysis, and authorities believe he was "not impaired by alcohol but possibly by medication or another substance."

A probable cause affidavit, obtained by PEOPLE on March 31, also revealed that Woods wasin possession of two opioid pillsat the time of his arrest.
