Overview

• Viewers flagged the tour highlight clip on Smith’s official channels for crowd shots with blurred faces, warped hands, and apparent extra fingers.
• A widely cited frame shows a fan’s knuckles seemingly merging into a sign reading “'You Can Make It' helped me survive cancer. THX Will.”
• The video remains live after being posted ahead of UK dates with the caption, “My favourite part of tour is seeing you all up close. Thank you for seeing me too.”
• News outlets report that Smith’s representatives and YouTube did not immediately respond to requests for comment as the allegations spread.
• Several reports note platform-side AI upscaling or automated processing as a possible cause of the artifacts, leaving the source of the anomalies unconfirmed.
