Chloe Fineman Posts (And Deletes) TikTok Claiming Elon Musk Made Her “Burst Into Tears” on ‘SNL’

In a rare move for a 'Saturday Night Live' cast member, Chloe Fineman is sharing claims of how one of the show's marquee hosts — Elon Musk! — swatted down her idea for a sketch: "You stared at me like you were firing me from Tesla and were like, ‘It’s not funny.'”

“This man — this person — this host made multiple cast members cry on Wednesday before the table read because he hated the ideas.” In the weeks since, fans and online sleuths have been filling up comments sections with theories as to who it could be. “OK, I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being like butt-hurt over SNL and his impression, but I’m like you’re clearly watching the show, like what are you talking about?” she said in opening the clip. Fineman noted that she saw “some articles and stuff” about the situation in an obvious nod to coverage following Yang’s appearance on Watch What Happens Live opposite his Las Culturistas co-host Matt Rogers.
