Twitter owner made a surprise appearance when comedian Dave Chappelle was performing at the Chase Center in San Francisco on Sunday (11 December). The crowd were unimpressed and could be heard heavily booing Musk. Comedian Dave Chappelle brought Elon Musk on stage to huge boos from the crowd.
In a video shared on social media, Musk can be seen standing on the stage, awkwardly, unsure of what to do. He then says to Chappelle: “You weren’t expecting this were you?”
Elon apparently booed onstage in SF at a Dave Chappelle gig last night. “It sounds like some of them people you fired are in the audience,” says Chappelle. Haha? https://t.co/Mk6yzf4x1p

“It sounds like some of those people you fired are in the audience,” Chappelle joked, referring to the reports that Musk fired a number of Twitter staff members who criticised him on internal employee message boards. Twitter Elon Musk also reportedly cut thousands of jobs in November after firing outsourced contract workers, including those who fight misinformation on the platform as content moderators.
