Elon Musk has hit back at Billie Eilish after the singer unleashed a fiery celebrity call-out to the Space CEO.
Four days after the Grammy winner, 23, accused him of hoarding his wealth instead of helping solve global crises, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO finally responded to her tirade about him.
Now the Tesla CEO has replied her. Under an X post shared by an Eilish fan account, Musk wrote: ‘She’s not the sharpest tool in the shed.’
The jab at her intelligence marks his first direct acknowledgment of Eilish’s blistering tirade, which ignited a storm online and drew huge applause from fans who praised the singer for ‘saying what everyone else is afraid to say.’
Last Thursday, Eilish, who is estimated to be around $50million, posted a rapid-fire series of Instagram Stories highlighting statistics from the advocacy group MyVoiceMyChoice.org.
Although she didn’t name Elon Musk directly, the timing, and the content, left fans with zero doubt about her target.
One slide claimed he could spend $40billion a year to end world hunger by 2030, while another said $140billion could provide safe drinking water to the entire planet for seven years.
A separate slide estimated that saving all 10,443 critically endangered species would cost roughly $1–2billion annually, and another suggested that $53.2billion could rebuild Gaza and the West Bank, with even larger investments potentially restoring parts of Ukraine and Syria.
After several slides detailing Musk’s projected race toward trillionaire status, Eilish ended with a stark black screen containing just eight explosive words: ‘f**ing pathetic p**sy b**ch coward.’
