New Twitter boss Elon Musk did not receive the warmest welcome at Dave Chappelle’s recent comedy show
Elon Musk appeared embarrassed at Dave Chappelle’s recent San Francisco comedy show, when the audience began booing him.
A mixed reaction from audience members at the show. Some cheered as Chappelle welcome Musk onto the stage, but it was impossible to notice many booing him.
It’s no surprise though, given San Francisco is the home of Twitter HQ, and the place where Musk just fired thousands of staff.
It comes as the controversial new boss makes drastic changes to the social media platform.
“Sounds like some of those people you fired are in the audience….
Don’t say nothing. You hear that sound, Elon? That’s the sound of pending civil unrest.”

After trying to joke his way around the awkwardness for Musk, Chappelle finished the show with some words of wisdom and a prayer.
“Booing is not the best thing you can do. I wish everybody in this auditorium the joy of feeling free and may your pursuit of happiness set you free. Amen.”
However, Musk has since responded to the booing from the crowd insisting it “was 90% cheers & 10% boos (except during quiet periods), but, still, that’s a lot of boos, which is a first for me in real life (frequent on Twitter).”
