Ayo Edebiri, known for her role in “Bear,” publicly criticized Tesla CEO Elon Musk for spreading false rumors about her, leading to death threats. She called out Musk on Instagram for sharing fake news about her potentially replacing Johnny Depp in a new “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie, a claim with no credible basis. Edebiri expressed her frustration with the backlash and racial slurs she faced due to Musk’s actions, labeling him as a “fascist” and “idiot.” Comedian Bill Burr also joined in, mocking Musk’s appearance and business ventures. Despite some humor in her responses, Edebiri emphasized her displeasure with the attention her comments about Musk were receiving in the media. This incident adds to the list of public figures who have had personal issues with Musk, including “SNL” star Chloe Fineman’s claim that Musk made her cry during his hosting stint on the show.
