Social media commentary have been harsh, especially toward Vogue, with calls to discontinue support for the magazine. "boycott Vogue NOW! they're pushing out models for AI, devaluing hard work and art of real people," one user wrote on X. "Had to end the Vogue magazine subscription I've had for years because the latest magazine used AI models ??? In Vogue? AI models in Vogue?" another person wrote. Had to end the Vogue magazine subscription I've had for years because the latest magazine used AI models ??? In Vogue? AI models in Vogue? Others shared disappointment that a real model was not used. "so many models wanting to appear in vogue, only for them to end up using AI models," one person wrote. "No actual human being has body proportions naturally like this with that symmetrical of a face and that airbrushed of of skin," YouTuber Isabel Brown said in a reaction video. "There already was major societal backlash to magazines trying to make women look completely unattainable and not realistic whatsoever." Guess has yet to post the advertisement on its social media pages. That has not stopped commenters from calling out the clothing company on other posts. USA TODAY has reached out to Vogue and Guess for comment. Seraphinne Vallora responds to AI, Vogue backlash The one company that has come out about the ad is its creator, Seraphinne Vallora. Described as an "AI-driven" marketing agency, the company's work has also been seen in Elle, Grazia, the Wall Street Journal, FT Magazine and Harper's Bazaar, according to the company's website. A post shared by Seraphinne Vallora (@seraphinnevallora) "Why can't engineers, graphic designers, 3D artists, coders, architect -any kind of creative- build beauty too?" the company said in a July 27 Instagram post. "And funnily enough, we actually hire photographers and models as part of our workflow," the company added, "we understand people may think Al will be replacing jobs, but in reality, it's just like any other tool in the design industry and it CREATES jobs, because this images are Al-Driven but made by HUMANS, CREATIVES AND DESIGNERS." H&M made headlines earlier this year when it announced it planned to make digital clones of its models, though it's "exploring" how to do so in "a responsible way."

Love Island USA Stars JaNa and Kenny Have Reportedly Broken Up
Getty Images (Edited) Love Island USA season 6 stars JaNa and Kenny have reportedly broken up. On July 27, 2025, TMZ was first to report that JaNa Craig and Kenny Rodriguez have allegedly ended their relationship, citing sources familiar with the couple. According to the outlet, the duo, who met during season 6 of Love Island USA and ultimately finished in third place on the show, reportedly broke up on Sunday morning, with Craig apparently the one to break things off. Since getting together on the show, JaNa and Kenny have shared multiple public appearances together; most recently, the two attended a Love Island: Beyond the Villa premiere event in Los Angeles on July 9, 2025. The former couple currently belongs to the main cast of the spinoff, which premiered on Peacock earlier this month. The two also notably attended the 2025 American Music Awards and Coachella 2025 together in May and April, respectively. Speculation surrounding JaNa and Kenny's breakup started days before the reportedly split, when eagle-eyed fans began noticing the duo had unfollowed each other on Instagram. The duo also removed their names from each other's bios. JaNa has also removed all pictures of them together from her feed and disabled her comments. JaNa's Love Island USA friends Serena Page and Leah Kateb, best known as a trio as PPG, have also unfollowed Kenny on their Instagram, as have their partners Kordell Beckham and Miguel Harichi. Serena and Leah, along with their partners, ended up in first and second place, respectively, during their season. Neither JaNa nor Kenny has spoken publicly about their reported split yet, and the reason why they called it quits remains a mystery, but watch this space in case we learn more.
