Kyle Sandilands Spoofs Sydney Sweeney's Controversial Sports Ad with AI-Generated Nude Video

Australian radio personality Kyle Sandilands has shared an AI-generated video spoofing Sydney Sweeney's recent nude advertisement for the sports betting platform Novig. The clip, created by a fan, shows Sandilands semi-nude and covering his body with a football, mimicking Sweeney's pose in the original ad.

Sandilands, 55, posted the video on Instagram, with a caption stating it was "the Kyle Sandilands x Sydney Sweeney collab that nobody asked for… except a Kyle Sandilands Live subscriber who made this!" The response from his followers was mixed, with some expressing amusement and others jokingly requesting content warnings.

"Content warning next time," one fan commented, while another said, "I was not ready for this OMG." Others found the video humorous, with one user calling it "Best use of AI to date" and another exclaiming, "This is the best thing I've seen all year!"

Sweeney, 29, garnered significant attention and criticism for her appearance in the Novig advertisement, which featured her nude and using various sports equipment for coverage. Critics accused Sweeney and Novig of "sexualising women in sports" and "setting feminism back decades."

Novig is described as a prediction market app that focuses exclusively on sports-related predictions, differentiating itself from similar platforms like Polymarket and Kalshi that allow predictions on a wider range of topics.
