Billie Eilish has spoken out on "fake" images depicting her at the 2025 Met Gala.
The Birds of a Feather singer skipped the fashion event staged at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City earlier this month as she was on tour in Europe.
But despite Billie being overseas, a number of AI-generated photos showing what it may look like if she had attended the Tailored for You-themed bash began to circulate online.
Taking to her Instagram Stories on Wednesday night, the star addressed duped fans who had criticised the "trash" outfit she was wearing in the images.
"Seeing people talk about what I wore to this year's Met Gala 'being trash.' I wasn't there!" she exclaimed while eating an ice cream. "That's AI. I had a show in Europe that night."
Billie went on to beg followers to leave her alone.
"Let me be! I wasn't even there!" the 23-year-old added.
The Happier Than Ever hitmaker performed gigs at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on 4 and 5 May.
And Billie isn't the only artist who has been forced to address AI-generated images showing them at the Met Gala.
Katy Perry took to Instagram to insist any photos of her at this year's bash were fabricated. She also joked that her mother wouldn't be fooled by the pictures like she had been in previous years because they were together at the time.
"Couldn't make it to the MET, I'm on The Lifetimes Tour (see you in Houston tomorrow IRL)," she wrote, before joking: "P.s. this year I was actually with my mom so she's safe from the bots but I'm praying for the rest of y'all."
