Chloe Fineman Shares How Elon Musk’s Harsh Words Led to Tears on SNL

Elon Musk has been under fire from Chloe Fineman. She claims that when he hosted “Saturday Night Live” in May 2021. He caused her to “burst into tears.” The 36-year-old comedian attacked the 53-year-old Tesla creator. After he made harsh remarks about the venerable program being a “dying” art.

In a since-deleted TikTok video posted on Monday. Fineman stated, “I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being butt hurt about ‘SNL’ and his impression.” However, I think, ‘You’re watching the show. Like, what are you discussing? He was the unidentified celebrity host who her co-star Bowen Yang had earlier accused of causing “multiple cast members to cry” because “he hated the ideas,” Fineman said, criticizing the SpaceX CEO.

“And I think, what do you know? I will now say that I am the cast member he made weep. He is also the host who brought someone to tears. “Perhaps there are others,” she continued.
However, I said, “No, if you’re going to use your platform to act rudely, guess what? I, Chloe Fineman, stayed up all night composing the sketch, and you caused me to cry. Musk “stared” at her in return, acknowledging that she was “so excited” to present him the sketch she had been working on.

Chloe Fineman deleted the video after it was up for a few hours. Luckily I saved it…in it she says Elon Musk did not like her sketch: “You made I, Chloe Fineman burst into tears because I stayed up late writing a sketch. I was so excited, I came in, I asked if you had any… https://t.co/y4BxNSab8j pic.twitter.com/p2RVHQMYuC

Chloe Fineman Stated

“It’s not funny,” you said, staring at me as if you were firing me from Tesla. When I asked if you had any questions. I was waiting for you to say, “Joke, haha.” No. After that, you began to go through my screenplay, turning each page and saying things like, “I didn’t laugh once, not once,” she remembered. Fineman’s sketch is shown in the end, and he even compliments Musk on his “funny” performance.

She went on, “But, you know, have a little manners here, sir.” Only a few days have passed since the X owner attacked Dana Carvey for the comedian’s portrayal of him on Saturday Night Live.

Following President-elect Donald Trump’s historic victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. The cast members cheekily displayed their loyalty to him during the opening skit. Former President Joe Biden actor Carvey made an unexpected cameo as Musk, who supported 78-year-old Trump in the election. Musk responded to the sketch on X by writing, “SNL has been slowly dying for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality.”

The billionaire continued, referring to the FCC commissioner’s criticism of Harris, 60, for allegedly violating the Equal Time rule following her appearance on the show last week. He said, “Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further.”
