Hold onto your avocado toast, LA fam - the drama between tech titan Elon Musk and his estranged transgender daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, just hit a whole new level of Hollywood-worthy shade. Vivian, who’s been living her truth far from Musk’s Silicon Valley orbit, recently spilled all the tea on drag queen Maddy Morphosis’ YouTube series, Give It To Me Straight, about her reaction to Musk’s wild November tweet claiming the 'woke mind virus' had 'killed' his child.
Musk, the Twitter/X overlord and former Trump aide, didn’t hold back when he posted his hot take in response to a New York Post article, even misgendering Vivian in the process. He’s doubled down on this narrative for months, telling political commentator Jordan Peterson in July 2024 that his 'son is dead' due to what he calls 'deadnaming.' But Vivian? She’s not here for the nonsense, serving up responses spicier than a Venice Beach taco truck.
Back in November, when Musk dropped that viral tweet, Vivian was halfway across the world in Tokyo, living her best life. She told Maddy Morphosis that she woke up to the chaos, stared at her phone like it was a bad Hollywood script, and thought, 'Wow... just wow.' Instead of dwelling on the drama, she hit up a convenience store for a gin and tonic, then spent the day smashing it on Smash Brothers - literally and figuratively. (Note: Vivian did caution against using booze as a coping mechanism, so let’s keep it chill, SoCal style.)
Later, in March, Vivian took her clapback game to TikTok, lip-syncing to audio that declared, 'I look pretty good for a dead b****.' Posted under her handle @vivllainous, the video was a total mic drop, proving she’s alive, thriving, and not letting Musk’s words dim her shine. And let’s not forget her earlier Threads post, where she dismissed Musk’s 'completely made up' childhood stories with a casual, 'Sure, Jan. Whatever you say.' She also flexed her legal status as a woman in California, reminding everyone she’s not sweating the haters from below her Malibu-level glow.
'I’m not here to play nice with people who can’t even respect who I am. California sees me, and that’s all the validation I need,' Vivian reportedly said, standing firm in her identity.
The plot thickens when it comes to Musk’s involvement in Vivian’s journey. During the interview with Maddy Morphosis, Vivian revealed that Musk had to sign off on her use of puberty blockers - a detail that adds some serious intrigue to their strained relationship. But when it came to the deets? She kept it cryptic, teasing, 'That’s one of the greatest mysteries of our time.'
Musk, on the other hand, claimed during his chat with Peterson that he was 'essentially tricked' into signing those documents related to Vivian’s identity. Whether it’s a case of miscommunication or something straight out of a Netflix docu-drama, this father-daughter disconnect is giving major LA soap opera vibes. One thing’s for sure - Vivian’s not backing down from telling her story, and we’re all ears for the next chapter.
Here in LA, where diversity and self-expression are as common as palm trees on Sunset Boulevard, Vivian’s boldness resonates big time. Her unapologetic stance against Musk’s public jabs isn’t just personal - it’s a reminder of the ongoing fight for trans rights, especially in a state like California that prides itself on being a safe haven for the LGBTQ+ community. (Fun fact: California has some of the strongest legal protections for trans individuals in the country.)
From Tokyo to TikTok, Vivian Jenna Wilson is proving she’s not just surviving - she’s thriving with a vibe that’s pure West Coast warrior. So, while Elon Musk keeps tweeting from his tech throne, Vivian’s out here living her truth louder than a Coachella headliner. Got thoughts on this family feud? Drop ‘em below, and let’s keep the convo poppin’ like a Venice boardwalk street party.
