At a secret sneak preview party, Catherrine performed her very first own song live for the first time \u2013 in front of invited guests and accompanied by Stern TV cameras.<\/p>\n
The song was not written by a conventional songwriter. It was not recorded in a traditional studio. It was created entirely with artificial intelligence \u2013 by Eliah GOGO, a creative AI studio based in Germany.<\/p>\n
What is Catherrine AI?<\/strong><\/h4>\nCatherrine AI is a fully developed digital artist \u2013 a virtual creative identity created to give Catherrine Leclery something she never had before: a voice of her own.<\/p>\n
The project combines three elements:<\/strong><\/p>\n\u2013 An AI-generated vocal identity \u2013 a synthetic voice tuned specifically to the emotional tone and personality of Catherrine\u2019s stage character
\n\u2013 Original songwriting \u2013 lyrics, melody and musical concept written by Mirko Klos, produced and rendered with generative AI tools
\n\u2013 A digital avatar \u2013 a visual AI representation of Catherrine that performs the music on screen, in music videos and on social platforms<\/p>\n
The result is a new kind of creative entity: part real person, part digital artist. Catherrine Leclery still performs live as she always has \u2013 in full drag, entirely to playback. But now the music she performs is her own.<\/p>\n
Why it matters \u2013 AI music as a new art form<\/strong><\/h4>\nThere is a lot of debate right now about what AI-generated music means for creativity, authenticity and the future of art. Most of that debate, however, is heading in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n
AI music is not a threat to creativity. It is a new medium \u2013 just as photography was when it emerged in the 19th century, and just as electronic music was in the 20th. And like every new medium, it doesn\u2019t create quality by itself. It needs real artists behind it.<\/p>\n
The internet is already flooded with AI-generated content that sounds like everything and means nothing. Tracks without identity. Visuals without soul. Content mass-produced and destined to disappear.<\/p>\n
Catherrine AI is the opposite.<\/p>\n
Every song was written for a specific person \u2013 for her character, her world, her audience. The AI tools were used to realise a human creative vision, not to replace it. The result is music that couldn\u2019t exist without both: the human vision and the machine\u2019s precision.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s what we believe AI creativity should look like.<\/p>\n
How we developed Catherrine AI \u2013 the process<\/strong><\/h4>\nStep 1: Finding the voice<\/strong><\/p>\nThe first challenge was the most fundamental: Catherrine had never sung. There was no vocal template, no existing recording we could build on. We used Suno AI to develop a completely new synthetic vocal identity \u2013 experimenting with pitch, timbre and emotional range until we found something that matched Catherrine\u2019s essence on stage.<\/p>\n
Step 2: Writing the songs<\/strong><\/p>\nOnce the voice existed, we could write for it. Mirko Klos \u2013 founder of Eliah GOGO and creative director behind this project \u2013 wrote the first songs specifically for Catherrine: lyrics, melody and musical concept were developed around her character, her humour and her drama.<\/p>\n
Production was done entirely with AI tools, through many iterations and refinements, until every track felt finished \u2013 not generated, but handcrafted.<\/p>\n
Step 3: The digital artist<\/strong><\/p>\nCatherrine AI is not just a voice. She is a complete visual identity: an AI-generated avatar who presents the music in music videos, social media content and digital campaigns. The virtual Catherrine can appear anywhere, anytime, in any context \u2013 no scheduling, no production costs, no limits.<\/p>\n

The first public appearance of Catherrine AI took place on 27 March 2026 at a small sneak preview party. The invited guests heard the song live for the first time \u2013 performed by the real Catherrine, in full drag, to her own AI-produced music.<\/p>\n
The evening was accompanied by a Stern TV film crew.<\/p>\n
It was a historic moment in every sense: one of Germany\u2019s best-known drag performers performed her own original song for the first time in her career \u2013 made possible entirely by artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n
What Catherrine AI means for brands and artists<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Catherrine AI project is a proof of concept \u2013 but also a blueprint.<\/p>\n
Any brand, artist or creative institution can now get:<\/p>\n
\u2013 A completely original musical identity \u2013 without a recording studio or record deal
\n\u2013 A virtual brand ambassador \u2013 with full creative control over voice, look and content
\n\u2013 A scalable digital personality \u2013 releasing music, appearing in videos and building an audience across all platforms at once<\/p>\n
Virtual artists don\u2019t cancel gigs. They don\u2019t have sick days. They don\u2019t lose relevance with age. They grow with your brand, in whatever direction you choose.<\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t the future. Catherrine AI is already here.<\/strong><\/p>\n\ud83c\udfac As seen on Stern TV<\/strong>
