Billie Eilish Calls Elon Musk a 'Pathetic... Coward' Over Trillionaire Pay Prospect

Reports note Musk is not a trillionaire, with any $1 trillion payout contingent on demanding Tesla milestones.

Overview

  • Eilish posted an expletive-laced Instagram Story after resharing My Voice My Choice graphics that criticized how Musk uses his wealth.
  • The slides cited estimates such as $40 billion per year to end world hunger by 2030, $140 billion for seven years of universal safe water, $1–2 billion annually to protect 10,000+ critically endangered species, and $53.2 billion to rebuild Gaza and the West Bank.
  • Media coverage emphasized that Tesla shareholders approved a plan that could grant Musk up to $1 trillion in stock only if he meets steep targets over about a decade, including a far larger market value and product milestones like robotaxis.
  • Forbes currently pegs Musk’s net worth in the mid‑$400 billions, and outlets corrected posts that incorrectly labeled him a trillionaire.
  • Reports also pointed to Eilish’s recent callouts of billionaire wealth at the WSJ Innovator Awards and her $11.5 million tour donation to climate and food‑equity organizations.
