GOSSIP & RUMORS: Tilly Norwood creator Eline Van der Velden responds to AI video backlash

Tilly Norwood’s building up a serious botty of work. 

From modeling to acting, and now singing, the doe-eyed diva, birthed via artificial intelligence, is a manmade multi-hyphenate who comes with all the works — and it’s working the nerves of humans worldwide. 

But the bot’s creator, Eline Van der Velden, says that the haters have got it all wrong — exclusively explaining to The Post why she feels the AI ingénue “has real humanity at her core.”

Norwood, a faux 24-year-old bombshell supposedly hailing from the UK, makes the same case in the verses of her debut single, “Take The Lead,” out Tuesday

Visuals for the ditty feature the digitized dynamo belting out lines like, “When they talk about me, they don’t see the human spark, the creativity,” and “I am still human, make no mistake, my soul’s in every move that I take.”

The music video — complete with a computerized choir of background singer and a flock of phony flamingos — has already garnered over a combined 57,000 views across YouTube and Instagram, as well as a tidal wave of outraged from peeved real people. 

“This is truly one of the most awful, nonsensical, terribly conceived and poorly executed wastes of our planet’s limited resources I’ve ever seen,” an anti-AI troll ranted beneath the video. 

“This will be our downfall. AI is destroying our environment and our jobs. “Also, not human.”



“Just a human job-taking machine,” spat another cringing commenter, whose anger was echoed by equally irked detractors demanding that Van der Velden be sent “straight to prison for this Mamma Mia-trained monstrosity.”

But Van der Velden insists that Norwood’s song wasn’t meant to infuriate the masses — although her bot’s mere existence has ruffled the feathers of everyday folks and Hollywood hotshots, alike, since storming the scene in late 2025. 

Instead, the pioneer says the tune is an effort towards bridging the gap between AI performers and the flesh-and-bone individuals who give them life.

“The lyrics are meant to be both a call to actors to explore the opportunity with AI, and to demonstrate that human creativity is behind everything Tilly does,” Van der Velden, founder of Particle6, an AI production studio in London, and told The Post. 

To drum up the right words for the song, the visionary and her team of 18 — including an executive producer, costume designer, creative technologist, a comedy writer and an actor — turned to an essay she wrote for Variety. The experts inputted the article into a sophisticated system, which, in turn, churned out the lyrics. 

“Then we moved to Suno to create the artist’s profile and the vibe, deciding on a contemporary pop-meets-musical theatre style,” Van der Velden explained, referencing the AI music generating platform she used for Norwood’s sound. 



“Tilly’s singing voice was 100% created in AI,” added the creative, who is also a physicist — and a comedy actress in the Netherlands. 

“We prompted it based on her personality and her spoken voice,” said Van der Velden. “I have a background in musical theatre, so I felt comfortable with this music style, and of course, it’s fun — we always want Tilly to be fun.”

But, not to strike a cord with the madcaps of the music industry, Van der Velden assures that the musics video is “not explicitly launching a music career for Tilly.”

“She is an all-around entertainment vehicle with lots of strings to her bow,” said the pro. “With AI, and Tilly, anything is possible.”
