Rod Stewart
Under Fire For A.I. Ozzy Tribute Video
Published
Rod Stewart turned to artificial intelligence to put together a tribute video to the late Ozzy Osbourne at a recent concert … but now it’s backfiring.
Bruh what, Rod Stewart’s tour features an AI video of Ozzy Osbourne taking selfies with XXXTentacion, Kurt Cobain, 2Pac, and many other artists in heaven đ

Ya gotta see the A.I.-generated video that played at Rod’s show in Charlotte, N.C. … it shows Ozzy with a selfie stick smiling with other dead celebrities.
The video features Ozzy with Prince, Michael Jackson, Kurt Cobain, Freddie Mercury, Tina Turner, Tupac Shakur, Bob Marley, XXXTentacion, Aaliyah and George Michael … just to name a few.
Rod used the video in a concert on July 29 … exactly one week after Ozzy died.
The video is just now going viral on social media … and lots of folks are upset. They say it’s too soon and very bizarre — and others wonder if any of the celebs in the video would want to be remembered this way.
Rod’s performed with Ozzy before … so it seems he could have used some old footage instead of this A.I.-generated video.
