Elon Musk, famous for his bold ideas and unique personality, has surprised everyone once again with an unexpected claim: he’s a 3,000-year-old time-traveling alien.
The billionaire entrepreneur, who leads Tesla and SpaceX, made the comment during a fun late-night meme session on his social media platform, X (formerly Twitter). Musk, known for his unfiltered thoughts online, casually made the statement in a conversation with his followers. When joking about being a vampire, he responded, “I’m a time-traveling vampire. Also, I’m an alien.” He also spoke about the challenges of living through the ages, saying, “It’s such a trial assuming all these false identities over the centuries!”
As expected, people online reacted with a mix of humor and surprise. One user commented, “Elon, why are you still awake?” while another joked, “Great, now we need a Marvel crossover for this plotline.”
Musk’s New Role Musk recently became the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), an initiative led by President-elect Donald Trump. Although DOGE isn’t an official department, its goal is clear: to audit federal spending and cut out $2 trillion in waste. Musk, known for his focus on cost-cutting, stated, “This will send shockwaves through the system.”
Trump has praised Musk for his vision but noted that he would be involved part-time due to his commitments with Tesla and SpaceX. The project is expected to finish by July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Social Media Reactions Musk’s comments about being an alien and vampire sparked plenty of reactions online. Some followers found it funny, saying, “Musk’s life is just one sci-fi movie after another.” Others questioned if his quirky behavior might take away from the seriousness of his new role.
A Pattern of Eccentricity This isn’t the first time Musk has made unusual statements. From his Mars plans to his child’s name, he is known for mixing serious goals with humorous remarks. Despite his quirks, his followers continue to admire him, with one noting, “It’s just Elon being Elon—half genius, half meme lord.”
As Musk continues to make headlines with his bold ideas, one thing is clear: he thrives on keeping the world curious and captivated.
