SNL Rejected Elon Musk’s Unhinged Offer To Flash the Audience

SNL Rejected Elon Musk's Unhinged Offer To Flash the Audience

As a seasoned film critic who’s seen more than a few oddball antics on and off-screen, let me tell you that Elon Musk’s latest escapade is one for the books – or should I say, the tabloids? The man has always been an enigma, but his recent revelation about his proposed SNL comedy pitch takes the cake.


What’s the deal with Elon Musk? Some might argue a lot given his recent antics. For instance, the billionaire CEO of Tesla Inc., who infamously proposed to impregnate Taylor Swift last week, recently shared an unconventional stunt he attempted on Saturday Night Live. According to him, the purpose was to test whether the show is as live and spontaneous as it claims to be. However, it’s safe to say that no one questions the authenticity of Saturday Night Live in such a way. Musk further detailed his peculiar pitch made over Zoom before hosting the late night comedy show in 2021.

“However, we can verify this by keeping them in the dark about what’s happening. The plan is as follows: I will casually toss a prop on the floor. Tonight, let’s see if Saturday Night Live truly airs live. To prove it, I’ll intentionally reveal a prop that resembles my private parts. If you spot it, it confirms the show is live. If not, we’ve been misled.

It’s hard to believe, yet it’s a true account – straight from Elon Musk’s lips at All In. The crowd erupted in laughter when another panelist exclaimed, “This is the best pitch I’ve ever heard!” But Musk wasn’t done yet; he continued by teasing that instead of really exposing himself, he would be revealing something else from his pants pocket.

“In essence, there’s much more to explain. To start with, this is just the opening act. So, imagine me saying, ‘I’m going to reach into my pockets, pull out what I have, and show it to you.’ Now, when I say that, you might think it’s something adult-oriented. But in reality, I would be revealing a small baby rooster. You get the picture? It’s not explicit, more like a PG rating. This is my symbolic representation of a small size.

Is it true that Elon Musk jokingly implied he might feel insecure about something small? Given the grandeur of his electric trucks, it seems plausible he’s making up for something, doesn’t it, Mr. X? We couldn’t help but make a playful comment.

SNL Wasn’t Very Receptive to Elon Musk’s Idea of Comedy

Known for consistently testing comedic limits over the years, Saturday Night Live has been a staple of American culture for half a century. The debut episode of this groundbreaking sketch comedy series is set to be featured in the upcoming film titled Saturday Night, directed by Jason Reitman. This movie recounts the events of October 11, 1975 – a night filled with chaos – that ultimately led to the birth of Saturday Night Live.

In his own words, even the Saturday Night Live team fell silent upon hearing Elon Musk’s extraordinary proposition, which he claimed to have made while still under the influence of a hangover. He confessed, “There was an eerie quiet,” and added, “I wondered if the microphone was on.

Fortunately, the pitch was turned down, and during his initial speech, Musk jested about his Asperger’s Syndrome, threw in some 420 references, mentioned O.J. Simpson, ridiculed his son’s unique name (X Æ A-12), and had an uncomfortable interaction with his mother – all while abstaining from using his pet rooster.
