The ‘Sina de Ofélia’ case: AI-created Taylor Swift version featuring Luísa Sonza’s voice banned from the Portuguese charts

A song generated by AI and posted on TikTok that misused Taylor Swift’s melody from ‘The Fate of Ophelia’ and the voice of Brazilian singer Luísa Sonza has been banned from several platforms but continues to be shared. In Portugal, this illegal adaptation reached figures high enough to enter the singles chart — meaning it could have earned revenue in the country — but it was subsequently banned by the Portuguese Phonographic Association.
