Is a video of Erika Kirk jumping on stage at the Rolling Loud Orlando 2026 event using a power boosted lift real? No, that's not true: The video is an AI-generated compilation using footage from South Korean rapper Psy's publicly available videos. The Rolling Loud Orlando hip-hop event is scheduled for May 2026 and had not taken place as of the publication date of the video. The video is similar to other videos that mock Erika Kirk for some of her public appearances since her husband Charlie Kirk was shot and killed.
The claim appeared in a January 17, 2026, video posted on TikTok account @slayatknight (archived here). It opened with the caption:

The Rolling Loud festival in Orlando, Florida, will be held May 8-10, 2026, according to the organizers' website (archived here).
The video uses footage from South Korean rapper Psy's Instagram account posted in August 2025, with an AI-generated image of Erika Kirk superimposed into the footage. Psy posted videos on his Instagram account (archived here) showing him beneath the stage and being lifted up to a cheering audience. The screenshots from the videos below show Erika Kirk and Psy both being lifted up to the stage:
