The entertainment and technology world was recently shaken when Suply Hostiп shocked the audience by referring to Elon Musk as a “bastard” during The View live show. The unexpected comment sparked an intense discussion on social media, attracting the attention of both the public and the media. While those present in the studio were in complete shock, Musk’s reaction added even more tension to the atmosphere.
During the live broadcast, Hostiп did not hesitate to make controversial statements when talking about Musk’s decisions in his companies, especially with Twitter (now X). When asked about her opinion, the presenter spontaneously launched disconcerting words that left the other hosts and the audience stunned. In fact, some members of the studio could not hide their surprise and expressions of astonishment were heard after the bold comment.
True to his style on social media, Elon Musk was quick to react. Instead of showing immediate anger or indignation, the magnate responded with irony through a brief but sharp tweet: “Courtesy has always been the strong point of some people.” His post went viral in a matter of hours, generating millions of interactions and a wave of divided opinions about the management of the X platform and its leadership.
Joy Behar, one of the main hosts of The View, quickly stepped in after the incident and offered a public apology, clarifying that Hostiп’s comments did not represent the show’s official stance. In addition, the production team issued a statement reaffirming its commitment to professionalism and respect in debates.
As expected, the incident sparked a massive debate on social media. While some users criticized Hostiп for crossing boundaries and called for her to face consequences, others defended her, arguing that her outburst was an understandable reaction to the controversies generated by Musk. Internationally, several media outlets analyzed the impact of the episode on the public image of both Hostiп and the tech entrepreneur.
So far, it is not known if Suply Hostiп will issue a formal apology. However, what is certain is that this episode will continue to be talked about in the coming days. The big question is whether this was just a momentary outburst of frustration or whether it really reflects the presenter’s personal stance on Musk and his business management.
