In recent days, acclaimed actress and talk show host Whoopi Goldberg has once again captured media attention with sharp criticism directed at billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk. During multiple episodes of the popular show The View, Goldberg openly voiced her opinions about Musk’s actions and statements, igniting a heated public debate.
The most viral moment occurred on February 12, 2025, when Goldberg bluntly remarked: “And nobody elected you. That’s the part.” The comment, which quickly spread across social media, seemed to question Musk’s self-appointed role as an influential figure in social and political matters, despite holding no public office.
But the criticism didn’t stop there. Just days later, on February 18, Goldberg once again targeted the owner of X (formerly Twitter), suggesting that Musk’s management might be linked to a recent airline accident. She speculated that mass layoffs in Musk’s “DOGEY” department could have compromised technological safety, fueling discussions about potential negligence.
While there are no records of Goldberg explicitly calling Musk an “idiot,” as some rumors claimed, her comments clearly reflect growing tension between the two. This media clash has reignited conversations about the power and influence of tech giants and the responsibilities that come with it.
As of now, neither Elon Musk nor his representatives have directly responded to Whoopi Goldberg’s remarks. However, social media remains ablaze with divided opinions, signaling that this showdown is far from over.
Is this just another chapter in the ongoing drama between Hollywood stars and tech elites? Only time will tell.
