Tesla Boss; Elon Musk has denied he sexually harassed a flight attendant following reports that he exposed himself on a 2016 private jet flight to London.
The Billionaire rejected “wild allegations”, published by Insider, as “utterly untrue”, adding: “It never happened.” He also joked the reports should be dubbed “Elongate”.
According to the business news outlet, it was reported that Mr Musk paid a flight attendant $250,000 to settle a sexual misconduct claim against him.
According to the report in Insider, the attendant accused Mr Musk of exposing himself to her, rubbing her leg without consent, and offering to buy her a horse if she gave him an erotic massage.
The flight attendant was reportedly working as a contracted member of the cabin crew on Space X’s private jets at the time.
The news outlet has reportedly seen a declaration, which was supplied by a friend of the flight attendant, in support of her claim.
In the statement, the friend said that the attendant had confided in her after the supposed 2016 incident.
According to the friend’s reported comments, the flight attendant was asked by the Tesla founder to come to his room during a flight for “a full body massage”. She arrived to find Mr Musk “completely naked except for a sheet covering the lower half of his body”, according to the claims.
