James Kamara, known by the handle @jameskamaraa, has gained attention for posting videos featuring multiple celebrities, including Ice Spice, Tyla, Zendaya, and Kendall Jenner, among others.
One of his most popular clips, now gaining renewed traction online, features pop sensation Sabrina Carpenter.
The one-minute video follows a classic vlog format, using timestamps to chronicle a full day with the Feather singer, but the entire interaction is likely AI-generated.

It includes moments like 6:30 a.m. (morning routine), 1:00 p.m. (lunch or “date” activity), and 7:00 p.m. (evening outing), creating the illusion of a day spent together.
The clip begins with Kamara waking up to Carpenter sitting on his bedside table in a light pink pajama set, smiling, making a hand-heart gesture, and blowing a kiss.
The two are then seen brushing their teeth and having breakfast before heading out in a car, listening to her hit song Espresso.

Later, they are seen watching the sunset on the beach, with Carpenter dressed in a pink hoodie, black shorts, and brown sneakers.
The video ended with the two pulling up to an In-N-Out, where Kamara appeared to meet actor Adam Sandler.
The TikTok’s caption included a detailed breakdown of the creator’s day with Sabrina, where he wrote, “Experience a delightful day in the life with Sabrina Carpenter! We kicked off the day bright and early at 6:30 AM, ready for a fun-filled adventure.”

“Sabrina, already awake, greeted everyone with a cheerful hello as I started my morning routine… Our spirits were high, and after a quick bite, we hopped into the car. The sun was shining… We played some of Sabrina's own music, which made the car ride feel surreal as I jammed along with her right next to me.”
Kamara concluded, “To my surprise, we spotted none other than Adam Sandler enjoying a burger! It was a crazy and unforgettable experience, making for a memorable day spent with talented friends like Sabrina.”

At first glance, the clip appeared real to many, but Kamara is known for using AI software to digitally manipulate and insert himself into existing footage of celebrities like Sabrina.
In his videos, he often uses advanced editing tools to replicate realistic motion and lighting, making it appear as though he is physically present on “dates” or in vlog-style moments with them.
One displeased fan urged, “Celebrities seriously need to start suing or it’s gonna keep happening”

The realistic quality of the AI-modified content has sparked widespread debate among netizens about the ethics of such videos.
One viewer expressed concern, writing, “I hate ai… I hate this person who invented it cause it’s ruining everything.”
Another added, “And then men don’t understand how come us women find them stupid.”

“Men do stupid sh*t like this and wonder why women get pi**ed off about it but still continue to do it anyway,” remarked a third.
“It’s ai and this guy is weird for even making this video,” one user commented, while others added, “I didn't realize this was ai until I checked the comments but this is weird as hell.”
Another comment read, “AI is disgusting and this is a f**king creep behavior.”

“This should be considered stalking, I’m not even kidding!!!” fumed one user.
“This is so creepy i can’t believe we are letting this happen and not make it illegal.”
The safety and legality of such content largely depend on its intent and whether it is clearly labeled.
Many viewers pointed out the “disturbing” nature of the video, which was created using artificial intelligence

In the United States, the legality of AI-generated videos is governed by a patchwork of state laws and emerging federal regulations.
As of early 2026, the U.S. has introduced specific laws targeting the most harmful uses of AI, including the TAKE IT DOWN Act, which makes it illegal to publish explicit AI-generated deepfakes without consent, and the DEFIANCE Act, which allows victims of non-consensual AI-generated intimate imagery to pursue civil damages.
U.S. courts may also protect certain AI-generated content under “fair use” if it is clearly transformative, humorous, and non-commercial.
While James’ content raised concerns, other celebrities have faced far more severe misuse.
In 2024, Taylor Swift was targeted by viral, s**ually explicit AI-generated images, sparking massive public backlash and contributing to the push for stronger regulations like the DEFIANCE Act.
Reportedly, scammers have also used AI versions of stars like Sabrina and Swift to trick fans into buying fake concert tickets or exclusive content, resulting in an estimated $5.3 billion in global losses in 2025.
“He is committing a fake video which Sabrina never consented to. It’s a clear violation of boundaries and it’s a harassment,” wrote one netizen
