Fact Check: FAKE Body Swap Video Shows Erika Kirk Introducing Zukenee At Rolling Loud Orlando When It Was Really Karrahbooo On Stage Fact Check: FAKE Body Swap Video Shows Erika Kirk Introducing Zukenee At Rolling Loud Orlando When It Was Really Karrahbooo On Stage AI-Generated

Did Erika Kirk perform at Rolling Loud Orlando and bring out Zukenee to perform on stage? No, that's not true: This video shows an AI-generated body swap edit of real footage from Rolling Loud Orlando. Karrahbooo was the artist who was performing on stage at the time, but she has been digitally replaced in the footage with the likeness of Erika Kirk. The movements and dance steps of the fake Kirk follow the real actions performed by Karrahbooo.

The altered video appeared in a post (archived here) published on X by @murakamirug on May 10, 2026. The post was captioned:

Erika Kirk brings out Zukenee to perform her favorite song at rolling loud Orlando 🫣🔥

Lead Stories searched Google for "Rolling Loud Orlando Zukenee" which brought up several duplicates of the fake Erika Kirk video, but also some clips of Karrahbooo with Zukenee. A video titled, "Karrahbooo LIVE @ Rolling Loud Orlando 2026 [Full Set]" was published on YouTube on May 10, 2026, by the verified Rolling Loud channel (archived here). Lead Stories reviewed the 18-minute, 57-second video (embedded below) and matched some moments in the real footage to the altered video posted by @murakamirug. In the comparison images that follow, the dimensions of the videos are not identical. This is how the two videos were posted -- the screenshots have not been cropped by Lead Stories. Both videos carry two watermarks: "Amazon Music" in the lower right and "Rolling Loud" in the upper left.

The faked video begins with the Erika Kirk likeness asking the audience if she can bring another guest out (below left). The screen behind her comes into view displaying "2 Kirk". This edit to the screen supports the false narrative that Kirk was performing at Rolling Loud. At 13 minutes, 36 seconds in the Rolling Loud YouTube video, Karrahbooo complains how hot it is. As she heads back to the shade of the main stage, her name is displayed in gold bubble letters on the big screen (pictured below right). She pauses and looks back at the audience, asking them, "Can I bring another guest out?"

Later, at 16 minutes, 7 seconds Karrahbooo and Zukenee stride out on the stage shoulder to shoulder (pictured below right).

Finally, at 17 minutes, 45 seconds, Karrahbooo does some fancy footwork. This moment appears at 15 seconds in the @murakamirug video on X.
