Elon Musk responded to Billie Eilish after she publicly criticized him in a strong statement, marking one of the most notable celebrity disagreements of the year.
After the Grammy-winning singer, 23, publicly criticized him for prioritizing wealth over addressing worldwide problems, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX finally addressed her comments.
On a post from a Billie Eilish fan account on X (formerly Twitter), Elon Musk commented that she ‘isn’t the brightest.’
His comment about her intelligence is the first time he’s directly responded to Billie Eilish’s outspoken criticism, which quickly went viral and was widely supported by fans who admired her for speaking her mind.
I was really impressed last Thursday when Billie Eilish, who’s reportedly worth around $50 million, shared a bunch of important stats on her Instagram Stories. She was highlighting information from MyVoiceMyChoice.org, and it was great to see her using her platform to raise awareness!
Each slide outlining what Musk could theoretically fund with his staggering fortune.
One image suggested that $40 billion annually could eliminate world hunger by 2030, and another estimated that $140 billion would be enough to give everyone on Earth access to clean water for seven years.
As a lifestyle expert focused on global well-being, I often get asked about the costs associated with making a real difference. Recent estimates suggest it would take around $1 to $2 billion each year to protect all of the world’s critically endangered species. Looking at rebuilding efforts, we’re talking about $53.2 billion to help restore Gaza and the West Bank. And, frankly, the need is even greater in places like Ukraine and Syria, where rebuilding will require significantly larger investments. These numbers are substantial, but when you consider the value of preserving life and fostering stability, they become much more manageable – and frankly, necessary.
Following a presentation outlining Elon Musk’s potential path to becoming a trillionaire, Billie Eilish concluded with a simple black screen displaying a highly offensive and aggressive message: ‘fing pathetic py bh coward.’
While she didn’t say who she was talking about, the way she phrased things and when she said it made it very clear to fans who she meant.
Fans erupt: ‘She’s doing more than billionaires’
Eilish’s supporters flooded social media within minutes.
One fan pointed out that it’s impressive how much good this young woman in her early 20s is doing, especially compared to older, wealthy figures like billionaires and politicians. They highlighted that she donated 20% of her total wealth, which is more than Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos have donated together.
Another cheered: ‘Louder for the people in the back.’
One fan pointed out that Billie Eilish recently questioned a group of billionaires – literally asking them how they became so wealthy – at an industry event. The fan praised her boldness, saying no one else in the music industry would have the nerve to do that.
The Daily Mail has contacted Eilish and Musk’s respective representatives for comment.
Billie Eilish has been speaking out more and more about the issue of extreme wealth, recently criticizing billionaires when she received the Music Innovator Award from WSJ. Magazine.
Speaking to a crowd that included Mark Zuckerberg, George Lucas, and Hailey Bieber, she playfully challenged the wealthy, asking, ‘Seriously, if you have so much money, why? And honestly, why not share some?’
A source later told People that Zuckerberg, worth $257 billion, did not clap.
Even though Billie Eilish has been outspoken with her critiques, she’s also a generous donor. Stephen Colbert recently shared that her Hit Me Hard And Soft tour has raised over $11.5 million for important causes like fighting climate change, improving food access, and lowering carbon emissions.
Colbert announced the donation would be $11.5 million, and then thanked Billie on behalf of everyone, saying, ‘Thank you.’
Now that Elon Musk has publicly questioned her intelligence and Billie Eilish hasn’t responded to their recent conflict, supporters of both are preparing for another wave of drama.
