ELON MUSK WANTS TO BE KING OF ALL MEDIA

Apparently being one of the richest men in the world isn’t enough for Elon Musk – he also wants to be a media mogul. According to my source, Elon is hoping to expand his empire and buy OnlyFans, the adult subscription website that everyone and their sister seems to be on these days. Elon’s site X has been accused of COMPETING with OnlyFans recently by not removing material in questionable taste. After his takeover of Twitter, which he quickly rebranded as X, Elon is now telling pals that taking over OnlyFans seems like a logical fit for his growing media empire.

IS ELON MUSK TRICKIER THAN WE THOUGHT?

File this under “things that make you go hmmm…” According to our very well-placed source, Elon Musk’s gushing over Donald Trump has EVERYTHING to do with his company Tesla, and NOTHING to do with genuine feelings. Our source insists that Elon thinks Trump is pretty much a moron, but realized it would be best to keep his friends close and his enemies closer. Donald was in the habit of ranting and raving about the evils of electric cars, but as soon as Elon endorsed him, all of that talk suddenly stopped. Our source explains that Elon is outsmarting Trump by appealing to his ego to get him to stop badmouthing electric cars. Behind closed doors, Elon is allegedly singing a COMPLETELY different tune about Trump and his politics – and let’s just say it’s anything but flattering…

ELON MUSK: NOT AS POPULAR AS HE USED TO BE

Sure he’s sometimes the wealthiest man in the world, but Elon Musk seems to have committed social suicide by endorsing Donald Trump. The only thing awkward Elon seems to love more than money is social climbing, but thanks to his unpopular endorsement of the questionable former president, Elon is suddenly not on the coveted guest lists for the upcoming celebrity Halloween parties. According to my source, Elon had his people inquire why he hasn’t received any invitations, and the response was pretty consistent, with Hollywood A-listers telling him to celebrate Halloween with his former nemesis turned best buddy, Donald Trump. OUCH!

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW

Elon Musk made the news with his much anticipated, but poorly executed interview with Donald Trump on his website X, formerly known as Twitter. Not only was the interview riddled with technical problems, but now Elon is persona non grata in some of his favorite Hollywood establishments. According to our source, Elon’s been told he’s not welcome at a private membership club where he was allowed to frequent even though he wasn’t a member. We heard his brown-nosing of Trump was the final straw for the management of the celebrity popular establishment.

Adele made headlines when she confirmed her engagement to professional sports agent, Rich Paul, while performing at a concert in Europe. We just heard what she DIDN’T reveal though. Although she and Rich aren’t married yet, that hasn’t stopped them from starting IVF treatments with a top Beverly Hills doctor. Adele, 36 and Rich, 43 want to start a family ASAP so that’s why they started the IVF procedure. They apparently have been trying to conceive for a year but have been unsuccessful.

We forgot that Elle King was the daughter of right wing nut job and former SNL funny man Rob Schneider, but this week her explosive interview where she bashed her dad for being anti-gay and for sending her to a fat farm as a teen made headlines. We just heard that Rob is desperate to mend fences with his daughter, offering to go to family therapy, but Elle let him know through mutual contacts (they don’t speak) thanks but no thanks.

Speaking of families in crisis, Brad Pitt’s adopted son Pax made headlines when he was severely injured in a motorbike accident in Los Feliz, an area of Los Angeles. We just heard that Brad attempted to visit Pax in the hospital but was turned away. Pax, like many of the other kids he shares with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie, wants NOTHING to do with Brad.

B-list celebrity and nepo baby, Sara Foster made headlines for splitting with her partner of 19 years, pro tennis star Tommy Haas. Here’s what we know. While other outlets reported that Sara and Tommy were married our well-placed source reveals they never legally wed and instead are common law partners. We also heard that allegations of infidelity are being tossed around on BOTH sides and this split will likely get UGLY.

We started with Donald Trump and will finish with Donald Trump for this week’s Here’s What We Know recap. His online interview on X made headlines for so many reasons including his obvious lisp. According to our well-placed source, Donald recently had some work done to his teeth, including having a partial denture glued in his mouth. He has been having a hard time adjusting to the new apparatus and that’s why he’s been lisping.

RON DESANTIS TWITTER FIASCO: ACCIDENT OR SABOTAGE?

Another political piece of gossip that’s just too juicy not to share! Was it sabotage? That’s what some insiders working on Ron DeSantis’ presidential campaign are wondering after his disastrous kick-off on Twitter. Ron teamed up with Twitter boss Elon Musk to officially announce his run for the White House, but his live stream was delayed and riddled with glitches. It was SO bad that it’s already being labeled the most disastrous presidential campaign launch in history! Some connected to the campaign are wondering if Elon sabotaged the stream to make Ron look like a bumbling idiot. Just hours after the debacle campaign, insiders began to question whether Elon did this because he doesn’t support Ron’s fight with Disney or his ridiculous ban on books. These speculations will likely remain just that, but for now the campaign is steering clear of any more Twitter streams.

ELON MUSK: SUPERHERO OR SUPERVILLAIN?

We’re not sure what to be most surprised about: the fact that Elon Musk went to the Abracadabra store in the Flatiron district in NYC and bought an elaborate costume called The Devil’s Champion Leather Armor set for $7500 to wear to Heidi Klum’s Halloween party, OR the fact that he went to the party with his MOTHER, Maye Musk. The costume had odd symbols on it (including an upside down cross) and online observers (trolls?) are already making negative predictions and remarks about Musk’s supposedly dark character and linking everything to Twitter. We happen to think he’s fascinating and would not mind getting to know him…

JEFF BEZOS: LIVING WELL IS THE BEST REVENGE

Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos looked mighty happy here as he and his cute girlfriend Lauren Sanchez left NY restaurant Cipriani after lunch. His space trip with William Shatner was a huge success and cheered him up after unpleasant communications from his space rival Elon Musk. (Is the race to space all about machismo?) NASA awarded a 2.9 billion dollar contract to Musk, and via Twitter, he sent Bezos a silver “2nd place” emoji. Bezos promptly sued NASA, insisting the contract was unfairly awarded to Musk. We think William Shatner made a very important observation – that outer space is utter blackness and when he looked down at earth it was bright and beautiful. Let’s appreciate and take care of what we have…

SNL OPENED OUR EYES ABOUT ELON MUSK

Elon Musk’s appearance on Saturday Night Live turned out to be quite a surprise. We weren’t familiar with his personality at all and found his South African accent and idiosyncrasies fascinating. He looked handsome- was well dressed, but appeared awkward and a bit uncomfortable before announcing that he had Asperger’s syndrome. THAT explained a lot. He made a distinct effort to communicate with the audience and was surprisingly unpretentious. Imagine a multibillionaire having fun dressing up in goofy costumes for skits on SNL! How could you not like him? Elon obviously tried to have a good time on the show and it made him a lot easier to like. Seeing him (above) with his girlfriend of two years, Grimes, really gets you wondering what they have in common. They partied fully masked until 6 AM at the SNL after-party.

FORGET KANYE WEST- HAS JOHNNY DEPP GONE NUTS?

Even more problematic than Kanye West’s recent remarks about Planned Parenthood, the presidency, etc, are Johnny Depp’s lawsuits (he also sued his ex-wife Amber Heard) that are digging up and publicizing every insane or drugged-up thing he has said or done! By suing The Sun for libel, Johnny has invited the public to analyze his excessive and often repugnant behavior – things we would never have known about if HE had not filed suit! As a gossip writer, of course, we love these juicy revelations, but it IS mind boggling to think Johnny INVITED this stripping bare of his private life. Depp accused Elon Musk of having a threesome with his wife Amber and Cara Delevingne-. Musk denied it ever happened and was obviously astonished by Johnny’s self-defeating lawsuit- he recommended that “everyone bury the hatchet and move ON…

TOM CRUISE HAS PLANS FOR ELON MUSK

Scientology leader David Miscavige must be THRILLED to learn that his favorite “church” member Tom Cruise is combining forces with Elon Musk and NASA to make a movie in space. Certainly Tom will work favorable mentions of Scientology into his discussions with Musk. Tom has been known to enthusiastically recruit church members on his movie sets and he will certainly give it a try with Musk. Luring Elon Musk into the church would be the ultimate accomplishment for Cruise, who reportedly has a staff of low ranking Scientology members working for him around the clock without pay. Ironically, Elon Musk has been compared to L Ron Hubbard in the past for their mutual dislike of paying taxes…
