Elon Musk Responds to Making ‘SNL’ Cast Cry: Sketches Were Unfunny


Elon Musk responded to Chloe Fineman‘s revelation that he made her cry through the week he hosted “Saturday Night Live” by doubling down on how a lot he fearful that his episode could be unfunny. Musk hosted “SNL” in May 2021.

“Frankly, it was only on the Thursday before the Saturday that ANY of the sketches generated laughs,” Musk wrote on X. “I was worried. I was like damn my ‘SNL’ appearance is going to be so fucking unfunny that it will make a crackhead sober!! But then it worked out in the end.”

Fineman got here ahead in a since-deleted TikTok video to disclose that she was the forged member who a bunch made cry as soon as. Back in August, “SNL” star Bowen Yang revealed publicly {that a} male host had as soon as made “multiple cast members cry” throughout a table-read “because he hated the ideas” for sketches. Yang didn’t identify the host however stated it was on the Wednesday earlier than the episode filmed that the incident occurred (which aligns with Musk now saying it wasn’t till Thursday that he felt the sketches being pitched have been humorous).

In the deleted video, Fineman responded to Musk’s latest criticism of “SNL” after comic Dana Carvey debuted a Musk impression on the Bill Burr-hosted episode that aired Nov. 9. Musk wrote on X that “SNL” has been “dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality.”

“OK, I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being like butt-hurt about ‘SNL’ and his impression, but I’m, like, you’re clearly watching the show. Like, what are you talking about?” Fineman fired again within the video. “And I’m like, you know what? I’m gonna come out and say at long last that I’m the cast member that he made cry. And he’s the host that made someone cry. Maybe there’s others.”

“If you’re gonna go on your platform and be rude, like, guess what? You made I, Chloe Fineman, burst into tears because I stayed up all night writing the sketch,” she added of Musk. “I was so excited, I came in, I asked if you had any questions and you stared at me like you were firing me from Tesla and were like, ‘It’s not funny.’ I waited for you to be like, ‘Ha ha, JK.’ No. Then you started pawing through my script, like flipping each page, being, like, ‘I didn’t laugh once, not one time.’”

The sketch did find yourself making it to air, and Fineman admitted that she “actually had a really good time” and Musk was “really funny in it. But, you know, have a little manners here, sir.”
