Chloe Fineman says Elon Musk made her ‘burst into tears’ during ‘SNL’ hosting gig

Chloe Fineman revealed that when Elon Musk was the “Saturday Night Live” host, he made her “burst into tears.”
Fineman, 36, who’s been a cast member since 2019, revealed in a since-deleted TikTok posted Monday that the controversial billionaire, 53, made her cry when he hosted the NBC sketch show in May 2021.
“I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being butthurt about ‘SNL’ and his impression,” Fineman said.
During Saturday’s post-election episode, Dana Carvey swapped his impression of President Biden for one of the Tesla founder.
“But I’m like, you’re clearly watching the show. … And he’s the host that made someone cry. Maybe there’s other’s,” said Fineman. “If you’re gonna go on your platform and be rude, like, guess what, you made I, Chloe Fineman, burst into tears because I stayed up all night writing the sketch.”
Fineman recalled excitedly bringing Musk her sketch and him looking as though he was “firing me from Tesla, and you were like, ‘It’s not funny.’
“You started pawing through my script — like flipping each page, being like, ‘I didn’t laugh once. Not one time.’ [sighs] Cut to, the sketch made it on and it was fine and I actually had a really good time and I thought you were really funny in it. But, you know, have a little manners here, sir.”
Back in August, cast member Bowen Yang namelessly referred to a male host who made “multiple cast members cry.”
Early Tuesday, Trump’s right-hand billionaire tweeted that he’d been “worried” in the run-up to his hosting gig.
“I was like damn my SNL appearance is going to be so f–king unfunny that it will make a crackhead sober!!” he recalled. “But then it worked out in the end.”
Early Sunday, the SpaceX honcho slammed the “dying” show as “increasingly out of touch with reality.”
