It Was Just a Joke” – Kathy Griffin Begs Elon Musk to Drop His Lawsuit: “He’s Gonna Ruin Me”

In a bizarre turn of events, comedian Kathy Griffin finds herself at the center of a legal storm after an elaborate prank involving Tesla CEO Elon Musk. What did she do, you ask? Well, Griffin created a paper mache mold of Musk’s face and affixed it to the front bumper of a Tesla. The pièce de résistance was rigging the car to shout, “Me am a GENIUS!” as she drove it around Los Angeles, much to the amusement of passersby.

However, Musk, often portrayed as having a robust sense of humor on social media, did not take kindly to this particular jest. Known for his litigious nature, the tech mogul wasted no time in instructing his legal team to sue Griffin, sparking fears that the lawsuit could “ruin” her financially and professionally. “He’s gonna ruin me,” Griffin reportedly lamented, as the reality of Musk’s wrath began to sink in.

Griffin’s prank, while intended as a harmless joke, has landed her in hot water. The comedian, who has a history of controversial humor, now faces a daunting legal battle. Musk’s lawyers have filed a lawsuit claiming defamation and seeking substantial damages for what they describe as a malicious attack on his character and brand.
