How it is made

The Popstar AI prompt and model

Popstar AI is made with Seedance 2.0 / 2.5 (you pick the tier) by ByteDance. The prompt behind it has 5 parts, and the timing is what makes or breaks it.

Model: Seedance 2.0 / 2.5 (you pick the tier)
Mode: Photo + motion reference to video
Length: 15 seconds, 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1
Input: 1 photo

Identity lock Your photo is the only source for your face, hair, clothes and build, kept the same in every frame and never reshaped toward the original star.
Motion reference A 15-second clip of the mansion walk supplies the camera, the rooms and the timing; the model swaps the lead and keeps the rest.
Scene The wood-and-glass mansion, the champagne bottle, the glass balcony and the glass staircase stay as in the clip.
Timeline Five beats over 15 seconds: walk-in, arms wide, hall swagger, balcony and the glass stairs.
Rules One lead, the bodyguard as the only other close figure, five fingers per hand, no text, logos or watermark.

How it opens

Replace the man in the white cap and pink number-0 jersey over a teal striped top in Video 1 with the person from Image 1. Their face, hair, clothes…

Why it goes wrong when you do it yourself

Without an identity lock the model keeps the original star's cap and jersey and only borrows your face.
The bodyguard drifts or turns into a second star when the prompt does not say he stays the same.
The long single take through glass makes the face small in the last seconds, where likeness drops.
Every try costs credits and several minutes, and a plain text prompt will not rebuild the same mansion.

What is the Popstar AI trend?

Updated November 1, 2026 · videosi is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or with the owners of any trend, song, game or brand named on its pages.

Popstar AI is a short-video trend built on the music video for POPSTAR, DJ Khaled's 2020 song featuring Drake. In the original, the star walks through a modern mansion with a bottle in his hand and a bald bodyguard following him, passes a wall of portraits of himself and ends at a pool party. The AI version swaps the star for someone else while keeping the walk, the camera and the song.

The earliest AI version we found is dated 30 September 2026, with Eminem as the star. The wave went wide on 2 October 2026 with a Neymar Jr version in a pink number-0 jersey and white cap, which Brazilian sports accounts credited to an AI creator called downey.ai. Versions with Messi, Drake, Justin Bieber and fans followed through October. No single starter is confirmed, and we mark the trend as spreading.

The videosi clip is 15 seconds, the first half of the 30-second walk. You come in with a bottle held low, spread your arms, mouth along to the song with the bodyguard right behind you, stride through the wood-panelled hall, cross the glass balcony and head down the glass staircase. The wall of portraits and the pool party come later in the original and are not in the 15 seconds.

The video comes with the sound of the clip it follows, lined up with the walk. Your mouth does not sing the lyrics and the music belongs to the label, so a platform may mute or flag it.

Popstar AI: shot by shot

0–1 s
Walk-in
You come in from the left side of the frame through a doorway, a champagne bottle held low in one hand.
1–4 s
Arms wide
Arms spread, bottle held out to the side, you mouth along to the song while the bald bodyguard in a dark suit trails right behind.
4–8 s
Hall swagger
You stride through the wood-panelled hall with the same easy swagger, the bodyguard a step behind, then turn toward the big windows.
8–11 s
Glass balcony
The camera moves outside the glass and watches you cross the balcony.
11–15 s
Down the glass stairs
You go down the glass staircase with a hand on the rail, the view framed by railings and a sculpture in the foreground.

Tips for a better result

Face and upper body in view
The star is filmed from the waist up in the hall, so a sharp photo of the face and torso keeps your likeness.
Wear what you want to wear
Your clothes come from the photo, not from the clip, so a printed shirt or a jacket photo makes the best walk.
Neutral to confident expression
A relaxed or slightly cocky face fits the mouthing beat. Big laughs and tilted selfies drift more.
One person only
Crop to the single person you want in the mansion. A second face in the photo can blend into yours.

Good to know before you make a Popstar AI video

Likeness is not guaranteed: the last seconds are filmed through glass, so the face is small and hair or beards drift most there.
Your mouth does not sing the lyrics; the clip is a walk with a mouthing performance, not a lip-sync.
The video carries the audio of the clip it follows (the POPSTAR recording). Music rights belong to the label and a platform may mute or flag it.
The mansion and the bodyguard are fixed; you cannot upload your own house. The portrait wall and the pool party of the original are outside the 15 seconds. A failed, timed-out or blocked render returns its credits.

Popstar AI: questions

What is the Popstar AI trend?

The Popstar AI trend is a 30-second clip in which a lone star walks through a glass-and-wood mansion with a bottle in hand and a bodyguard on his heels, copied from the 2020 POPSTAR music video. AI versions with Neymar, Messi and Eminem spread from 30 September 2026. videosi makes the first 15 seconds from one photo of you.

How do I make the Popstar AI video?

Upload one photo of yourself to videosi, pick 16:9, 9:16 or 1:1 and press Generate. The 15-second mansion walk needs no prompt and takes several minutes to render. It is saved in My creations if you close the page, and the MP4 comes with the song sound lined up.

Is there a Popstar AI generator or website?

Yes. videosi (videosi.io) makes the Popstar AI video from one photo. The mansion, the bodyguard, the camera moves and the prompt are built in, so you only choose the photo and the format. A 15-second Standard 720p video is 13 credits, and the MP4 has no watermark.

Is there a TikTok filter or CapCut template for the Popstar trend?

The Popstar clips on TikTok are made with AI video tools, not with a single built-in TikTok filter, and CapCut templates come and go, so check inside the app. videosi is independent and not affiliated with TikTok, CapCut, Drake or DJ Khaled. Upload one photo on this page and download a 15-second MP4 with the sound on it.

What AI model and prompt make the Popstar AI video?

The videosi video is made with ByteDance's Seedance model (Seedance 2.0 Mini by default; Fast, Pro and Seedance 2.5 Ultra are one click away) from a short replace-the-lead prompt and a motion reference clip. Doing it yourself often takes several tries because the model keeps the original star's cap and jersey or loses the bodyguard.

How much does the Popstar AI video cost?

It is not free: a 15-second Standard 720p video is 13 credits on videosi, and your first video on an account never costs more than 10. Credit packs start at $6.99 for 10 credits and never expire; plans start at $29.90 a month. Better models and higher resolutions cost more, and a failed render returns its credits.

Why doesn't the star in my Popstar video look like me?

The usual cause is the photo: a cropped face, heavy shadow, a hat or sunglasses, or two people in frame. Use one sharp, evenly lit photo that shows your face and shoulders. videosi cannot guarantee likeness in the 8-to-15-second staircase part, where the camera films through glass and the face is small.

Can I use a friend's photo or a celebrity photo in the Popstar trend?

Only if you have the right to use it. The videosi Popstar video turns one photo of a single adult into the mansion walk, and it will not put a real person into someone else's likeness or into a hug or kiss. Use your own photo or one you have permission for, and label the result as AI-generated.

What does POPSTAR mean in the Popstar AI trend?

POPSTAR is the title of DJ Khaled's 2020 song featuring Drake, and in the trend it means being the star of that music video's mansion walk. The Popstar AI version swaps the lead for someone new. The videosi clip is 15 seconds long and keeps the song's sound.

What song is used in the Popstar AI trend?

The song is POPSTAR by DJ Khaled featuring Drake, from the 2020 album Khaled Khaled, and TikTok lists it for some of the posts while others show original sound. The videosi video comes with that sound lined up, but it is the label's recording, so platforms may mute or flag it. If so, swap in a licensed track.

Is the Popstar AI trend still trending?

Yes, though it is past its first burst. We found AI versions posted between 30 September and 10 October 2026, and as of November 2026 the format is still spreading from footballers to rappers and fans. The videosi version is one photo and 15 seconds, so it is cheap to join.

Who started the Popstar AI trend?

No single starter is confirmed. The earliest AI version we found is dated 30 September 2026, and the one that spread most widely was a Neymar Jr version posted on 2 October 2026, credited by Brazilian sports accounts to an AI creator called downey.ai. videosi is not affiliated with any of them.

Can I use ChatGPT, Sora, Veo or Kling to make the Popstar video myself?

You can try, but a plain text prompt rarely reproduces the same mansion, the bodyguard and your likeness together. videosi uses a motion reference and a locked identity prompt for Seedance, so you get the same walk from one photo. Sora, Veo and Kling are separate tools and are not part of videosi.

Will the post get flagged because of the song?

It might. The videosi video carries the POPSTAR recording, so TikTok, Instagram or YouTube can mute it or limit reach depending on rights in your region. Label the clip as AI-generated, and if the sound is muted, replace it with a licensed track from the platform's own library.
