During her podcast appearance, Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Musk’s estranged daughter, made fun of her millionaire father by reflecting on his political beliefs, criticizing his remarks regarding her gender identification, and drawing attention to the way she is portrayed in his biography.
The 21-year-old model made an appearance on the Give It to Me Straight podcast, which was hosted by Maddy Morphosis, a former RuPaul’s Drag Race contestant. Wilson questioned, “Who is that?” after the hosts revealed that she was Elon Musk’s estranged daughter. Morphosis joked, “Uh, some government person,” in order to handle the matter. I’m not sure. “Not anymore,” Wilson retorted.
She made reference to Musk’s turbulent departure from a government advisory position and his contentious relationship with President Donald Trump in her statement. In a previous video, she responded to the argument by saying, “I didn’t want to comment,” and then burst out laughing. Eventually, the topic of her transition and the Tesla owner’s public criticisms came up. After Musk announced that his son had perished from the awakened mind virus, Morphosis asked her how she felt.
Wilson remembered waking up because he was in Tokyo and said, “Wow, wow,” as he looked at his phone. She added, After that, I purchased a gin and tonic at the convenience store. I played Smash Brothers after that. I was so inebriated that day that I really became pretty proficient at Smash Brothers as a diversion. Avoid doing that. Don’t. A poor coping strategy.
Additionally, she brought attention to Elon Musk’s critique that went viral. It was the book a year earlier. There was a lengthy passage in which I essentially stated, “This is the reason for his tragic villain backstory origin because his daughter is a bleeped out slur.” She also considered Walter Isaacson’s official biography of Musk, in which she is said to have turned into a devout Marxist and renounced her father because she thinks that everyone who is wealthy is bad.
Isaacson also noted in Musk’s biography that her transition contributed to Musk’s political move to the right. Wilson disagreed, saying that he had previously been like this. Don’t hold me responsible. Yes, I’m not to blame. When asked if Musk had to provide his approval for her to obtain puberty blockers, Wilson replied that he did. I am unable to explain how that occurred. One of the biggest riddles of our time is that.

In a 2024 interview with Jordan Peterson, Musk subsequently asserted that Wilson had threatened to end her life without transitioning and that he had been duped into consenting during the pandemic. Wilson responded by telling NBCNews that it was untrue. Musk remarked, “So my son Xavier is dead,” and compared puberty blockers to sterilizing medications. The woke mind virus killed him. After that, I made a commitment to eradicate the awakened mind infection.
Wilson has stated that her relationship with Musk is essentially nonexistent. In 2022, Wilson came out as transgender and legally changed her name from Xavier Alexander Musk. She stated in her name change petition that she has no desire to have any kind of relationship with [her] biological father.
