Elon Musk has struck up a feud with… Paris Hilton!? What the heck?
The Paris In Love star has made an enemy out of the X (Twitter) owner after pulling out of a short-lived advertising campaign on the platform — and Elon’s butthurt over it!
If you didn’t know, back in October, X CEO Linda Yaccarino — who was brought on to win back big-name advertisers — flaunted the fact the influencer’s company 11:11 Media was partnering with the social network to run a wide-ranging advertising campaign. But last month, the model pulled her content from feeds over concerns of antisemitism on the site, as did many other companies.

Now? the Tesla founder is taking jabs by dissing her cookware line, the very products she was currently promoting on his site. In response to commentary about Paris’ decision to step away from the X campaign, he argued on Sunday:
LOLz! What a weak diss!
Plus, the mother of two has continued to promote her new products on Instagram and TikTok, so her decision to walk away from X has nothing to do with whether or not it was a good campaign. Elon wishes, though! Take a look at what he was trying to shade (below):
The businessman’s certainly feeling the burn after Disney and IBM removed ads from X following controversy as he seemingly endorsed an antisemitic conspiracy theory popular among white supremacists online. He’s since apologized and started to lash out at those who deserted the platform. Also over the weekend, he called out the Mouse House CEO Bob Iger at The New York Times‘ DealBook Summit, complaining:
Oof!!!
So far, Paris hasn’t reacted to the drama and we kinda doubt she will. Seems like a one-sided feud… Reactions, Perezcious
