Elon Musk deadnames his 'killed' child — his trans daughter claps back

Yahoo23-03-2025
Transphobia is alive and well in America — and so is Vivian Wilson, the 20-year-old trans daughter of Elon Musk who clapped back at her billionaire father after he deadnamed her and declared she had been "killed."

Musk — the CEO of Tesla, founder of SpaceX, and recent owner of X/Twitter — has expanded his horizons by joining President Donald Trump's 2025 administration as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
On Saturday, March 22, X user @spacesudoer wrote, "Don't people realize that we hate Hitler not for doing a quirky salute, but for killing millions of people? Has Elon killed even a single person? No. And just because his son says something, that doesn't necessarily make it true."
Musk wrote the following in response:
"Exactly. My son, Xavier, died. He was killed by the woke mind virus. Now, the woke mind virus will die."

On Sunday, March 23, Vivian Wilson shared an Instagram video to clap back at her father deadnaming her and falsely claiming that she has died.
The video begins with a screenshot of Musk's X post seen above, and then shows a video of Vivian Wilson — very much alive — clapping back at her father's false claims.
"I look pretty good for a dead bitch," she says, referencing the iconic Morgan McMichaels werk room entrance line from RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 3.
Vivian's video can be watched below.

If you're not familiar with the reference, Morgan McMichaels is a drag queen who first competed on RuPaul's Drag Race season 2 and subsequently came back for All Stars 3.
Between Morgan's first and second run on Drag Race, the polarizing winner of Drag Race season 2 shared social media posts falsely alleging that Morgan had died — going as far as creating "artwork" about Morgan's death, pretending to be mourning, and including a link to promote their SoundCloud page.

These false accusations prompted Morgan to do a live-stream to clarify that she was very much alive and drag the season 2 winner for flat-out.
During this chaotic live-stream from 2017, Morgan explained that many of her loved ones actually believed that X post containing false information about her death — referencing people who were literally crying and freaking out over the idea that Morgan had actually passed away.
On March 29, 2017 — literally one day after the death hoax started by the crowned winner of season 2 — Morgan delivered one of the most iconic and unforgettable live drag performances of all time: a number (dubbed "ALIVE") in which Morgan attended her own funeral.
Instead of using a fake dead body and/or a coffin for the performance, Morgan turned the season 2 winner's social media post into the object of her mourning and sadness — all while lip syncing to a legendary medley (dubbed "ALIVE") of "Bring Me to Life" by Evanescence, "I'm Alive" by Céline Dion, and "Survivor" by Destiny's Child.

So, when Morgan returned for All Stars 3, she made one last reference to this saga with the werk room entrance line, "I look pretty good for a dead bitch."

Howard Stern's Sarah Michelle Gellar, Freddie Prinze Bet

Back in 1997, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. met on the set of I Know What You Did Last Summer, and basically lived happily ever after. As a quick recap, the two didn't actually start dating until they worked together again in 2000, when they played love interests in the Scooby-Doo movies. But after that, things moved pretty quickly. Sarah and Freddie got engaged in 2001, and then married in 2002. They welcomed their first child, Charlotte, in 2009, and a son, Rocky, in 2012. And on Monday, they appeared to be more in love than ever as they walked the red carpet for the new I Know What You Did Last Summer sequel, which Freddie stars in. Needless to say, hopeless romantics everywhere were obsessed to see the couple still standing strong almost 30 years after the first movie brought them together. But as fans fawned over their love story on a pop culture Reddit forum, it didn't take long for Freddie's 2001 interview with Howard Stern to come up. Suffice to say, it has not aged well. In the interview, which took place shortly before Freddie and Sarah got married, Howard warns the actor that the relationship 'won't last.' 'So, you will marry [Sarah] even though you know that it won't last?' Howard began, going on to tell then-25-year-old Freddie: 'You think you gonna know how you feel at 35? You're going to be a completely different dude.' 'And she will be a completely different woman, but it's all good,' Freddie breezily replied. 'And you will probably talk to each other through lawyers!' Howard's cohost Robin Quivers added. Howard later told Freddie: 'I want to make a written bet with you now: In about 10 years, you're gonna hunt me down and go: 'Howard, I owe you money.'' He then bet Freddie $1 million that he and Sarah won't stay together for longer than five years. Both Freddie and Sarah have acknowledged Howard's bet over the years. In a 2016 interview with Build, Freddie said: 'He bet me a million dollars that we would break up in under five years… You have not paid that bet, young man!' And on their 20th wedding anniversary, Sarah posted the interview to her Instagram story, and wrote: '@SternShow I think you owe us.' Freddie reposted this at the time, joking: 'She will not forget.' So, it's pretty unsurprising that it has resurfaced again amid Sarah and Freddie's latest loved-up display, with a popular Reddit comment reading: 'they are a living embodiment of howard stern being wrong about everything so i have no choice but to be a fan.' 'Did he ever pay FPJ?' somebody else asked, while another wrote: 'he was acting like they were 19 and had literally no idea what they were doing.'While one more mused: 'I hate when people who's relationship fell apart project that everybody else will also have a relationship fall apart.'Others just couldn't help but gush over the long-lasting celeb couple, with one person writing: 'They appear to be a blessed couple. They still look great and they appear to be enamored with each other.' While somebody else concluded: 'The way she looks at him 😭 This is the celebrity relationship I'll always root for, I wish all the happiness for them.' Let me know your thoughts on Howard's bet in the comments below!

Diddy In Drug and Domestic Violence Therapy While Awaiting Sentencing

Source: @diddy / Instagram Sean 'Diddy' Combs is taking proactive steps toward rehabilitation as he awaits sentencing for charges related to prostitution. The music mogul, currently in federal custody, has enrolled in multiple self-improvement programs aimed at addressing his history of drug use and domestic violence. Sources close to the situation tell TMZ that Diddy is participating in the STOP Program, a federal initiative designed to prevent sexual assault, domestic violence, and dating violence. Additionally, he is undergoing therapy through the Dr. Harry K. Wexler drug abuse program, which focuses on substance abuse rehabilitation. Insiders describe Diddy's efforts as a 'path toward redemption,' with the artist reportedly committed to bettering himself. However, some skeptics suggest that his participation in these programs may be a strategic move to demonstrate rehabilitation ahead of his sentencing, scheduled for October 3. It is not uncommon for convicted individuals to engage in such programs to show judges their commitment to change. RELATED: The Diddy Trial: In Pictures Diddy's legal troubles stem from a federal trial that included testimony about his alleged domestic abuse and drug use, including substances like Molly. While he was acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges, the jury found him guilty on two lesser charges related to prostitution. Federal prosecutors have recommended a four-year sentence, but the final decision rests with Judge Arun Subramanian. Interestingly, Diddy reportedly began drug treatment before his arrest last year and has continued his efforts while incarcerated. This timeline could bolster his case for leniency, as it demonstrates a longer-term commitment to addressing his issues. The developments mark a significant chapter in the life of the hip-hop icon, who has faced both legal and public scrutiny in recent years. Whether his efforts will influence the court's decision remains to be seen, but for now, Diddy appears focused on self-improvement and rehabilitation.

The Wilson Family Poses For Adorable 3BRAND x Nike Collection Photoshoot

Source: Stephanie Augello / Getty Russell Wilson is 'building a legacy' with his wife, Ciara, and their four beautiful children. On July 14, the adorable family took to Instagram to strike a few poses for a photoshoot in honor of Wilson's 3BRAND clothing collection released in collaboration with Nike. The first photo captured Ciara, Russell and their adorable kids, Future Zahir Wilburn, Sienna Princess Wilson, Win Harrison Wilson, and Amora Princess Wilson, giving their best pose for the camera as they rocked matching black hoodies from the Nike X 3BRAND collection. Taken in front of the Empire State Building in NYC, the family flawlessly executed the incredible photoshoot, each bringing their own swag and personality to the image, including 1-year-old Amora, who donned a huge smile for the special occasion. A few images tucked at the end of the slideshow captured Sienna, 8, wearing a blue army print version of the hoodie, and 11-year-old Future–who Ciara famously co-parents with Grammy-winning hip-hop star Future—rocking a black version of the comfy looking athleisure piece as he donned his best modeling gaze. In the final photo of the slideshow, Win channeled his big brother — and looked remarkably like his father — as he struck a serious pose, football in hand, while sporting a sleek black 3BRAND hoodie. Born from the heart and vision of Wilson, 3BRAND is where sports, music, fashion, and community collide with purpose. It's a brand built on movement — physical, cultural, and emotional — with a bold mission to inspire individuals to believe in themselves and chase greatness, according to the brand's website. The story of 3BRAND starts with a simple, hand-drawn logo by Wilson, a symbol of ambition, hustle, and vision. With support from a powerful partnership with Nike, and creative collaboration with his wife Ciara, 3BRAND was launched as more than an athleisure line — it was a call to action. As parents and role models, Russell and Ciara share a deep commitment to inspiring the next generation to live with purpose. With every item sold, 3% of profits go directly to the Why Not You Foundation, a nonprofit launched in 2014 by Russell and Ciara. The foundation is dedicated to fighting poverty through education, supporting children's health, and ensuring access to essential resources like food and mentorship. Legacy is truly at the core of everything for this family, and we love to see it!
