I got death threats after Elon Musk shared fake news about me – Ayo Edebiri

Nigerian-American actress, Ayo Edebiri has revealed that she got “insane death threats” because of billionaire businessman, Elon Musk.

She said she got numerous death threats and racial slurs after Musk shared a fake report in February 2024 claiming Disney was considering her as a replacement for Johnny Depp in the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ franchise.

The X owner reacted to the report by writing: “Disney sucks.”

Edebiri believes that Musk’s reaction gave the fake report publicity, which led to her getting death threats and racial slurs.

On her Instagram story, she wrote, “Just remembering when I got some of the most insane death threats and racial slurs of my life (idk if it’s the #1 moment, but for sure top 3) for a fake reboot of a movie I had never even heard of because of this man. LMAO. So not only is he [Elon Musk] double Sieg Heil-ing fascist, he’s an idiot but anyway.”
