SNL’s Chloe Fineman Says Elon Musk Made Her Cry

Saturday Night Live star Chloe Fineman the tech billionaire claimed Elon Musk he made her cry when he hosted an episode a few years ago.

Musk was recently at odds with the long-running NBC show for its portrayal of him in the post-election episode. During the episode’s cold open, comedian Dana Carvey appeared on stage wearing an outfit similar to the one Musk wore to a Donald Trump rally. He also mocked Musk for naming himself “Dark MAGA” during the awkward appearance at the rally.

Musk was not a fan of the impression and claimed that “SNL has been slowly dying for years.”

In a TikTok video posted Monday, Fineman responded to Musk.

“Okay, I just saw a news article about Elon Musk that was endorsed by SNL and his impression,” Fineman said. “But I’m like, clearly you’re watching the show. Like, what are you talking about?”

Fineman then revealed how Musk allegedly brought her to tears before his 2021 episode.

“And I’m like, you know what, I’m going to come out and finally say that I’m the cast member that made him cry,” she continued, “and he’s the host that made someone cry . . Perhaps there are others; but i saw some articles and stuff and thought i won’t say anything. But I’m like, no, if you’re going to go on your platform and be rude, like, guess what? You, Chloe Fineman, made me cry because I stayed up all night writing this draft. I was so excited. I walked in, asked if you had any questions, and you looked at me like you fired me from Tesla and said, “That’s not funny.” I waited for you to say “Ha ha JK”. Not.

Then you started flipping through my script, like flipping through every page, saying, “I didn’t laugh. I didn’t laugh once, not once. Cut from the sketch done and it was good and I actually had a lot of fun and thought you were very funny in it; but, you know, you have little manners here, sir.
