Chloe Fineman Reveals Elon Musk Made Her “Burst Into Tears” as SNL Host in Now-Deleted TikTok

As a dedicated follower of the entertainment industry, I must say that Chloe Fineman‘s revelation about her encounter with Elon Musk during his Saturday Night Live stint truly resonates with me. Being an artist myself, I can empathize with her struggle to create something meaningful only to have it dismissed so flippantly.


Chloe Fineman, SNL cast member and popular impressionist, recently revealed in a now-deleted TikTok that Elon Musk was the host who left her in tears. This short-lived video supported longstanding speculation about an emotional event prior to Musk’s hosting premiere on Saturday Night Live.

In the video, Fineman discussed recent articles about Musk’s displeasure with SNL and divulged a personal interaction she had with him during his 2021 hosting stint. “I’ll just put it out there,” she divulged. “I was the cast member he made cry.” She explained how she spent numerous hours perfecting a sketch she was proud of, only for Musk to reply with an expressionless gaze and the words, “It’s not funny.” Fineman remembered hoping he was joking, but he wasn’t; instead, he continued flipping through her script, stating, “I didn’t laugh, not even once.

Apart from discussing it with peers and coming across related news articles, Fineman had encountered accounts of Elon Musk’s difficult encounters with the cast. Initially, she was inclined to remain silent regarding the matter, but his latest posts served as a reminder of her initial annoyance.

Although the event was emotionally challenging for her, Fineman acknowledged that the sketch was broadcasted and she found Musk’s performance entertaining. However, she ended her remarks with a gentle reminder to Musk: “Show a bit more courtesy.” The May 2021 episode of SNL featuring Musk is one of the show’s most contentious due to his divisive public persona and its effects on the cast members.
