Elon Musk’s Daughter Speaks Out Against Billionaire Father’s Claims

Elon Musk’s estranged transgender daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, has come forward to debunk her father’s claims about her in a series of posts on Threads and an interview with NBC News. Wilson, 20, described Musk as cold, uncaring, and narcissistic during her childhood, alleging that he pressured her to appear more masculine and denigrated her femininity and queerness.

In response to Musk’s recent statements, including calling her “dead” to him and claiming she was brainwashed by the “woke mind virus,” Wilson refuted his claims and criticized his reliance on old stereotypes about LGBTQ people. She also questioned his purpose in airing their grievances in an interview with Jordan Peterson, where Musk refused to accept her identity and referred to her by her “dead name.”

Wilson, who legally changed her name and gender identity when she turned 18, also criticized Musk for his reported use of ketamine and his stance on transgender rights. Musk recently announced his decision to move the headquarters of his companies out of California after the state passed a bill related to gender identity in schools.

Support for Wilson has come from unexpected sources, including Musk’s ex-partner Grimes, who voiced her pride and support for Vivian on social media. The ongoing public feud between Musk and his daughter sheds light on their strained relationship and differing views on gender identity and LGBTQ rights.
