Everything to Know About Elon Musk, Based on His Tweets
When one of the most interesting (and controversial) men on earth gets called to host Saturday Night Live, people are going to ask questions. Why would CEO of Tesla and founder of SpaceX Elon Musk be asked to host the comedy sketch show that's traditionally invited actors, musicians and comedians? His controversial takes on the COVID-19 pandemic and questionable business practices caused many to denounce the decision, while SNL cast members like Pete Davidson and Michael Che have expressed their excitement and intrigue.
ELON MUSK. MILEY CYRUS.

"It's going to be interesting," Che said on the Ellen DeGeneres Show this week about Musk's episode, which will feature Miley Cyrus as musical guest. "It's cool that people care about who's on the show, you know? I think, like, that's what makes it kind of cool."
For those who may know more of the myth, get to know the man behind the future of cars and space via his Twitter, where Musk likes to reveal bits of himself in his most unfiltered form.

Musk, who's dad to X AE A-Xii with singer Grimes as well as five children with ex Justine Wilson, would probably be down to send a self-driving spacecraft to pick up his young son from a playdate on the moon while he tinkers with more tech innovations at home on Mars.
