Overview

• Since late July, Stewart has projected an AI-generated video during his nightly performance of “Forever Young,” showing Ozzy Osbourne taking selfies with late artists such as Prince, Michael Jackson and Kurt Cobain.
• The clip was traced by Variety to a TikTok account called Eternal Stars and has racked up millions of views as it circulated across social media platforms.
• Many concertgoers and online commentators have labeled the tribute “disrespectful” and raised objections over the use of deceased figures’ likenesses without clear estate approval.
• A minority of voices, including Tupac Shakur’s stepbrother Mopreme Shakur, have publicly defended Stewart’s intentions as a sincere homage.
• Stewart’s “One Last Time” tour is scheduled to run through October, with no formal response issued regarding the controversy.
