Elon Muskโs recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast has sparked considerable attention, especially among fans of the well-known singer and actress Jennifer Lopez. During the show, Musk criticized Lopez for her involvement in Kamala Harrisโs Las Vegas rally during the presidential campaign.
Musk has long been an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump, and he didnโt hesitate to โpush backโ by referencing Lopezโs past relationship with Sean โDiddyโ Combs. Diddy is currently facing serious charges, including trafficking and racketeering, with his trial pending while he remains in federal custody in Brooklyn, New York. This relationship dates back to 1999 when Lopez and Diddy were a high-profile couple until their split in 2001.
The conversation continued as Musk questioned Lopezโs credibility, a move that stirred debates among listeners and fans alike.
โJ. Lo and Diddy were together for a spell, and now sheโs suddenly opposing Trump,โ Musk remarked during the podcast. โBut how vocal was she about Diddy before all this? Not a peep. So, can we really take her opinions to heart?โ
Musk elaborated further, addressing a broader issue within the music industry. โYouโd assume people knew Diddyโs unsavory actions, yet they consistently overlooked it,โ Musk added. โWhereโs the responsibility here? They had to be aware.โ
Lopezโs public support for Harris included voicing her disapproval of Trumpโs policies, particularly following a disparaging comment made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who supports Trump. Notably, Hinchcliffe made offensive references to Puerto Rico, calling it a โfloating island of garbage,โ which did not sit well with Lopez.
โBeing upset is normal. We should feel emotional, and we must not ignore these feelings,โ expressed Lopez back in October 2024. โOur voices and votes are crucialโitโs vital to stand up and be heard.โ
Lopez has not publicly commented on the recent legal troubles surrounding P Diddy.
Podcast host Joe Rogan also chimed in regarding the celebrity culture that once adored P Diddy. โItโs interesting how many folks who basked in his limelight are now fiercely backing Harris,โ he stated. โIt was more than his amusement; there was an apparent darkness there.โ
While the conversation about celebrity politics and accountability continues, Muskโs comments have undeniably added a layer of complexity to the publicโs perception of public figures in endorsements. As debates on these topics unfold, one thing remains certain: public discourse regarding these familiar personalities will not be fading anytime soon.
