'Delete this!' Miley Cyrus criticised by fans for promoting her SNL appearance with Elon Musk... after he was accused of 'destroying the planet' and being a 'men's rights activist'
Miley Cyrus was criticised by fans as she promoted her upcoming Saturday Night Live appearance with Elon Musk - after he was accused of 'destroying the planet.'
The billionaire's girlfriend Grimes staunchly defended him earlier this week when TikTokers also slammed him over his treatment of women - with Miley, 28, facing a backlash from SNL fans over a playful Instagram exchange in support of the show,
The pair are both slated to appear on the show on May 8 - with a fan tweeting a picture to Musk with him sitting on a massive wrecking ball in a parody of Miley's 2013 video for the hit Wrecking Ball and captioned: 'Alright Elon just…. hear me out.'
Oh dear: Miley Cyrus was criticised by fans as she promoted her upcoming Saturday Night Live appearance with Elon Musk - after he was accused of 'destroying the planet'
Musk said in response, 'Might be something there haha,' to which Cyrus responded, 'I’m down if you are!' with an emoji of a rocket, moon and Saturn. She added, '#MileyAndMusk to the moon!'
Some irate fans took Cyrus to task among her cozy demeanor with the SpaceX magnate, who Forbes has estimated to be worth in the neighborhood of $177 billion - and urged her to remove the exchange.
One user wrote, 'Delete this we will pretend that we didn't see,' while another said, 'Bestieeeee it’s not too late delete this.'

A Cyrus fan wrote, 'Miley please you don’t have to pretend to like him,' while another said, 'No thanks we only want miley.'
Another user brought up Musk's massive wealth, writing: 'Yes queen infiltrate and redistribute that wealth we love to see it.'
Other past business moguls to host the show include late New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner in 1990, and former NBC programming president Brandon Tartikoff in 1983.
A number of fans were put off by Miley's collaboration with the billionaire businessman
Cyrus has been a musical guest on the show on five previous occasions.
Her most recent came in April 2020 during an at-home episode in which she sang the Pink Floyd song Wish You Were Here. She's hosted the show in 2011, 2013 and 2015, also being the musical guest in the latter two.
The music superstar is getting ready to release a collaboration with The Kid Laroi's called Without You, which is set to be released Friday.
This comes as Musk's girlfriend Grimes did not sit idly by when TikTokers came for her boyfriend, billionaire Elon Musk on social media on Sunday.
Support: Some of the singer's fans noted Musk's massive personal wealth in their responses and showed their support for the upcoming appearance
The 33-year-old, whose real name is Claire Boucher, jumped into the comments of a video of herself 'sword dancing' to defend Elon against criticism about his treatment of women and 'destroying the planet and humanity.'
'I try to correct the misconceptions,' Grimes said to one person.
Commenters came after Elon, and by extension Grimes herself, on a recent TikTok video shared by the avant garde singer on Sunday.
In one typo riddled message, a TikToker asked: 'GRIMESSS. HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS AND ACTIVLEY [sic] SLEEP1NG WITH THE MAN WHO LOTERALLY [sic] DESTROY THE PLANET AND HUMANITY.'

Rather than letting the comments slide, Grimes responded directly: 'How is he doing these things? His whole career is about making travel/house power etc sustainable and green. It's worth a deep dive.'
Other users jumped in with various critiques of the 49-year-old Tesla CEO - from his treatment of women to how he spends his considerable wealth.
'Ppl keep asking this,' Grimes said in reference to those commenting on how Musk is rich enough to end mass hunger. 'But just throwing $ doesn't solve it. He's trying to focus on the issues he knows he can solve and they r real essential issues.'
Another user asked: 'Bestie can you confirm he's not a men's rights activist? Some people online have been saying that & I'm concerned.'
'He's not,' Grimes snapped back. 'Def he's been very immature at points on Twitter but for ex the president of spaceX is a woman, as is his right hand at Neuralink etc.'

Elsewhere in the comments, Grimes said she 'accepted' this type of talk about her boyfriend of several years but was just too 'close to it so sum times.'
'I try to correct the misconceptions haha,' she wrote.
Grimes and Elon have been romantically linked since 2018. Last May they welcomed their first child together, a baby boy they bizarrely named X AE A-XII.
This recent back and forth between Grimes and Elon's detractors comes as the mogul is catching backlash from comedy fans who are upset that he will host an upcoming episode of SNL next month.
The longtime NBC variety show made the announcement via social media as they shared a photo with Musk's name alongside Miley Cyrus — who was tapped as musical guest — captioning the image 'Musk See TV.'

The news came as shock to many as the program does not usually tap business moguls such as the SpaceX founder to play host, but it seemed a lucrative move on SNL's part despite overwhelmingly negative fan reaction.
Amongst a flurry of 'OMG, NO,' comments on the show's Instagram account and Twitter, one remark of approval was hard to come by.
'idk how much communication you have with lorne or the higher ups, but someone needs to tell them that absolutely no one wants this. i can not think of a single person who wants this,' a Twitter user wrote.
