Mike Myers has angered Elon Musk with an impression of the tech mogul on Saturday Night Live. The skit was part of a parody about a chaotic meeting between President Trump and Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy, where tensions flared over aid and dress code, among other issues. Myers’ Musk impression involved jokes about government inefficiency, including mass firings of air traffic controllers, resulting in planes landing upside down but with luggage conveniently falling into passengers’ laps.
Musk criticized Myers’ portrayal, stating, “Humor fails when it lies,” and others echoed his disapproval, calling the impression “brutal” and “not funny.” This isn’t the first time Musk has expressed displeasure with SNL portrayals; he previously criticized Dana Carvey’s Musk impression. Some viewers also mocked the political situation, suggesting it reflected poorly on the U.S. government and its leadership.
