Amy Klobuchar, the U.S. senator from Minnesota, has hit back after a fake video of her trashing Anyone But You star Sydney Sweeney went viral. She says the clip, which shows her mocking the actress and making offensive remarks, was nothing more than an AI deepfake.
The video began circulating after a recent Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing. In it, a fake version of Klobuchar appears to take aim at Sweeney over her ad campaign with American Eagle’s new line of jeans. The clip shows the senator using crude language, even saying Democrats were “too fat to wear jeans or too ugly to go outside.” Viewers were quick to believe it was real, sparking outrage online.
