Model Gabbriette Is ‘Obsessed’ With the AI Influencer Who Looks Just Like Her
But apparently not bothered.

Gabbriette, a model who’s appeared in campaigns for brands like Nike, Savage X Fenty, and Juicy Couture, is no stranger to being copied, referenced, or aesthetically echoed online. Charli XCX famously sang about this on “360.”
But the latest version of that comes with a twist she doesn’t seem particularly bothered by, though she has noticed. An AI influencer who looks strikingly similar to her has been circulating on Instagram.
“I’m obsessed with her,” Gabbriette commented under a post about the AI influencer.
Multiple users urged her to take legal action, while others spiraled into a broader panic about where artificial intelligence, originality, and identity are headed.
“I’m terrified,” one person wrote.
“Where does it end?” another asked.
“I hate it, We need regulations in case of AI in general,” said another account, adding: "I think it’s kinda tasteless tbh. Isn’t the whole point of being an artist to create something original? Obviously AI takes from other data that it’s fed, but I’m not impressed when I can tell exactly what photo and/or whose exact face these AI ‘artists’ rip off of. Unless it’s of your own face, you’re weird for that…”
The AI model in question is Lora Vaimp, an Instagram-focused virtual influencer with nearly 10,000 followers. Her bio describes her as an “Al-producer. Visual artist. Ghost-coded to dance.” She also claims to DJ, with the final line of her bio reading, “WIZARD OUT NOW!” alongside links to music.
Despite only appearing on the platform in July, the account already boasts around 150 posts, showing Lora Vaimp “DJing,” “modeling,” and cultivating the kind of moody, cool-girl mystique that mirrors real-world fashion and music influencers like Gabbriette.
The resemblance to Gabbriette, 28, is hard to miss, since she has full lips, dark hair, and a similar sultry, minimalist vibe. Gabbriette herself is a model, musician, and cultural fixture closely tied to fashion, underground music, and high-profile creative circles.
Things took a stranger turn when the AI model created images with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.
“Kanye is my bitch,” the caption read, alongside “photos” of the two in Los Angeles sharing a popsicle. Given Ye’s public embrace of AI in his music, the crossover doesn’t feel entirely impossible.
