The “Delulu” Madness: How Women Are Using AI to Bring Their Celebrity Fantasies to Life
Do you still recall the craziest thing you’ve done to fantasize about your celebrity crush?
Maybe you’ve written a wattpad fanfic, made a cute Pinterest board, or daydreamed about bumping into them in public. For many women, that fascination has become a creative outlet and at the heart of this all is curiosity and the thrill of what-ifs. These imaginations actually reveal something deeper about how women fantasize about their celebrity crushes.
Here’s how many women are channeling their inner delulu, from writing spicy fanfic stories to using imitative bot voices, to turn their stories into an audio book.
The Fascination with Celebrity Voice Clones
Mary is a middle-aged married woman from Buffalo, New York, who has always been a little delulu for her celebrity crush, Pedro Pascal. According to The Cut’s feature on AI celebrity voice clones, Mary first discovered voice cloning after stumbling upon a fellow fan in TikTok who used a cloned voice of Pedro Pascal. This prompted her to learn how to clone his voice herself and eventually used it to narrate an erotic series she wrote.
From then on, it wasn’t just fan fiction anymore. It was audio erotica that made her fantasy come alive and thrillingly close to real through sound. Imagine hearing your favorite celebrity’s voice narrating the very erotic story you wrote. Clips of Mary’s work even circulated on TikTok and Instagram, where many women admitted they’d love to try something similar featuring their celebrity crushes.
Mary’s case reflects a growing trend where women are exploring their fantasies through erotic audio, as shown by the rising popularity of Quinn, a popular erotic audio app that partners with celebrities like Emily in Paris star Lucien Laviscount, Andrew Scott, and Jesse Williams to narrate spicy audio stories for its listeners. Mary's homegrown clones and Quinn's official collaborations both highlight how modern technology is turning celebrity fandom into an immersive experience that feeds your delulu.
Why Some Don’t Feel Seen on Audio Erotica Apps like Quinn
While Quinn has been known as a platform for erotic audio for women, not everyone feels fully represented or comfortable with how this audio erotica app is evolving. One Quinn user shared that what drew her to the platform in the first place was the idea that its spicy audio stories were “trying to re-engineer porn for women” — offering something healthier, safer, and more emotionally intelligent than traditional adult content. Yet, she noticed that despite its promise, the app often felt dominated by erotic audio stories with straight white men profiting off women’s fantasies, with little sense of real community within.
As the user explained, both of Quinn’s Pride-themed collaborations featured white voice actors, one who might have been bisexual and another embodying what they called the stereotypical “fantasy lesbian” trope. Then there was Andrew Scott, an actor who is a member of the LGBT community, voicing explicitly heterosexual erotic scenes. While Scott himself didn’t seem uneasy, it still felt off to some erotic audio listeners and struck many as tone-deaf. It raised an implication that queer identities are sometimes used or fetishized in ways that don’t truly represent them. This shows that even when erotic storytelling becomes more high-tech, inclusive representation still matters.
Writing Your Own Fantasy > Consuming Someone Else’s
In some ways, what makes AI erotica apps like Smitten AI so refreshing is that it lets you reclaim your creative power. You’re in control of who stars in your story, even if that’s you and your dream Male Main Character. Whether your MMC’s description is inspired by Pedro Pascal, Lucien Laviscount, or someone straight out of your favorite Hollywood movie.
At its core, sexual fantasy isn’t about perfection, it’s about the freedom to imagine desire on your own terms, without bias, censorship, or someone else’s idea of what “female desire” should sound like. That’s exactly what’s drawing women toward more personalized spaces like Smitten.
The Future of Fan Culture
Women aren’t just reading or writing about their celebrity crushes anymore, they’re now hearing them through spicy audio stories.
While erotic audio platforms like Quinn have tried bringing celebrity fantasies to life, they’ve often left some users feeling unseen or misrepresented. On the other hand, Smitten gives you the freedom to craft your own fantasies freely, letting your imagination lead instead of celebrity branding.
Rather than using a real celebrity’s voice to fulfill your fantasies, Smitten lets you create your own character inspired by the traits you find attractive. Maybe it’s their charm, mystery, or confidence. You’re not just recreating someone real; you’re imagining the kind of connection you’d love to experience.
That freedom matters not only because it respects personal boundaries but because it also opens the door to a more creative and realistic kind of fantasy. Your character might remind you of someone you admire like a famous celebrity, but the world they live in is entirely your own.
And if you want to bring your erotic story to life even more, you can pair it with voices you find hot from platforms like Character AI, turning it into your own DIY audio erotica.
