Overview
- Musk posted the jab on X late Monday in reply to a Nov. 13 recap of Eilish’s Instagram Stories criticizing his wealth.
- Eilish had reshared My Voice, My Choice infographics and called Musk a “f—ing pathetic p—y b—ch coward,” saying his fortune could end hunger, provide clean water and help rebuild Gaza.
- Reports emphasize Musk is not a trillionaire; a shareholder-approved, multi-tranche Tesla pay plan could approach $1 trillion only if ambitious goals are achieved over the next decade.
- Eilish’s comments followed her WSJ Innovator Awards speech questioning billionaire wealth and her pledge to donate $11.5 million from her tour to food equity and climate efforts.
- The exchange fueled widespread social media reaction for and against both figures, with no further action or new philanthropic commitments reported.
