Overview
- Eilish posted a string of Instagram Stories on Thursday resharing activist slides and capped them by calling Musk a “f***ing pathetic p***y b**** coward.”
- The slides from My Voice, My Choice framed what vast private wealth could fund, citing estimates such as $40 billion a year to end hunger and $53.2 billion to rebuild Gaza and the West Bank.
- Coverage notes one graphic labeled Musk a trillionaire, which outlets corrected by explaining the figure refers to a contingent Tesla compensation plan approved by shareholders in October.
- Musk would receive the full package only if Tesla hits steep goals, including lifting market value to roughly $8.5 trillion and meeting aggressive vehicle, autonomy and robotaxi targets, and he is currently valued in the hundreds of billions by Forbes.
- No public response from Musk has been reported, while Eilish’s critique follows her WSJ Innovator Awards speech urging billionaires to give and her $11.5 million tour donation announcement.
