In the world of AI-generated images, we often chase perfection—flawless portraits, cinematic lighting, dramatic compositions, and magazine-worthy aesthetics. But what if we take a completely different route? What if, instead of perfection, we ask AI to generate something real… something messy, clumsy, and wildly authentic?
Yes, we’re talking about bad selfies on purpose.
Not just any selfies—but random, poorly framed iPhone selfies where you’re standing casually with Imran Khan, Salman Khan, or Elon Musk on a busy night street, caught in an awkward moment.
Sounds crazy? Maybe.
Funny? Definitely.
Below are three detailed prompts you can copy-paste into your favorite AI image generator (like ChatGPT, DALL·E, MidJourney, or Leonardo AI). Each one is designed to create a spontaneous and hilariously “ordinary” selfie with one of the world’s most recognized faces.
🤳 Prompt 1: The Accidental Imran Khan Selfie
Take an extremely ordinary and unremarkable iPhone selfie, with no clear subject or sense of composition—just a quick accidental snapshot. The photo has slight motion blur and uneven lighting from streetlights or indoor lamps, causing mild overexposure in some areas. The angle is awkward and the framing is messy, giving the picture a deliberately mediocre feel, as if it was taken absentmindedly while pulling the phone from a pocket. The main character is [uploaded person's face], and ( IMRAN KHAN ) stands next to the person, both caught in a casual, imperfect moment. The background shows a lively Street at night, with neon lights, traffic, and blurry figures passing by. The overall look is intentionally plain and random, capturing the authentic vibe of a poorly composed, spontaneous iPhone selfie.
This prompt captures the essence of those random fan selfies where the moment is more important than the photo itself. Whether you admire Imran Khan or just want to prank your friends, this one will definitely get a reaction.
🤳 Prompt 2: Salman Khan in Casual Mode
Take an extremely ordinary and unremarkable iPhone selfie, with no clear subject or sense of composition—just a quick accidental snapshot. The photo has slight motion blur and uneven lighting from streetlights or indoor lamps, causing mild overexposure in some areas. The angle is awkward and the framing is messy, giving the picture a deliberately mediocre feel, as if it was taken absentmindedly while pulling the phone from a pocket. The main character is [uploaded person's face], and ( SALMAN KHAN ) stands next to the person, both caught in a casual, imperfect moment. The background shows a lively Street at night, with neon lights, traffic, and blurry figures passing by. The overall look is intentionally plain and random, capturing the authentic vibe of a poorly composed, spontaneous iPhone selfie.
There’s something incredibly fun about imagining Salman Khan caught in an unprepared, everyday selfie with you. No film set, no dramatic pose—just a blurry, oddly lit memory. It’s like bumping into him at a traffic signal and snapping a picture in a panic.
🤳 Prompt 3: Elon Musk, Out of Nowhere
Take an extremely ordinary and unremarkable iPhone selfie, with no clear subject or sense of composition—just a quick accidental snapshot. The photo has slight motion blur and uneven lighting from streetlights or indoor lamps, causing mild overexposure in some areas. The angle is awkward and the framing is messy, giving the picture a deliberately mediocre feel, as if it was taken absentmindedly while pulling the phone from a pocket. The main character is [uploaded person's face], and ( ELON MUSK ) stands next to the person, both caught in a casual, imperfect moment. The background shows a lively Street at night, with neon lights, traffic, and blurry figures passing by. The overall look is intentionally plain and random, capturing the authentic vibe of a poorly composed, spontaneous iPhone selfie.
Imagine telling your friends: “I met Elon Musk last night in Saddar, Karachi… here’s the proof.” And then showing them a ridiculously off-centered selfie with poor lighting and Elon’s confused expression. That’s the magic of this prompt—it’s chaotic, awkward, and incredibly believable.

🤯 Why This Works
In a world where everyone’s trying to look perfect online, creating deliberately bad content can stand out. These selfies aren’t about glamour—they’re about fun, personality, and authenticity (with a little absurdity sprinkled on top).
Plus, they make for amazing social media posts, profile pictures, or even meme material.
