Chloe Fireman has claimed that Elon Musk was the mystery Saturday Night Live host who made her "burst into tears" during his skit on the show in May 2021. Rumors about a nightmare SNL guest host first began circulating when the show's writer, Bowen Yang, opened up to Andy Cohen about his "worst" experience. However, Bowen didn't divulge any details , leaving many fans to speculate about who he was actually talking about.
But now Chloe, 36, has finally spilled the beans, claiming that it was the Tesla CEO , who was also furious over Dana Carvey's impression of him on the post-election show . Speaking in a since-deleted TikTok , which was shared on Monday, Chloe claimed: "OK, I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being like butthurt over SNL and his impression. "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," she reiterated. She continued to explain that the SpaceX founder had brutally critiqued her work during a late-night writing session. 'You made I, Chloe Fineman bust into tears because I stayed up late writing a sketch, 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.

She recalled how at the time Musk "started pawing through my script–like flipping each page, [and] being, like, 'I didn't laugh once, not one time.'" The Babylon actress continued: "The sketch made it on, and it was fine, and I actually had a really good time and I thought you were really funny in it.
But, you know. Have a little manners here, sir!" The Express US has reached out to Musk's reps for comment. It is no secret that Musk was critical of Saturday Night Live's portrayal of him in the NBC staple's first episode since Donald Trump 's election victory last week.
The 53-year-old billion clapped back in a series of tweets shared on his platform X on Sunday in response to the segment in which Carvey mimicked the physical gestures Musk made while on the campaign trail with Trump. "SNL has been dying slowly for years, as they become increasingly out of touch with reality,' he began. Musk went on to fume: "Their last-ditch effort to cheat the equal airtime requirements and prop up Kamala before the election only helped sink her campaign further.
" The father of 12 also blasted that, "Dana Carvey just sounds like Dana Carvey"..
