Elon Musk

[smurfchops]

I wonder what all these women see in the good looking and beautifully toned body of billionaire Elon Musk?

wolf - Fair enough, and I understand your position, but I always try to remember that we only see a media-slanted image of famous people, and they are quite probably nothing like they are portrayed.

I remember Victoria Beckham talking about her 'image' and she said that if she thought she was like the personality that the media portrayed, she wouldn't like herself at all, but fortunately she, and the people who mattered, knew that she wasn't at all like that.

Surely the media work with what they're given.

She didn't turn up to a photo shoot as a hysterical nun and they changed her to a slow-burning vamp.

No, they don't work with it, they twist it to say what they think will appeal to their readers or listeners, and if that's not enough, they either embellish it so its relationship to the truth is just about viable, and failing that, they simply make it up.

Believe me, I've interviewed enough famous people to know of what i speak.

[douglas9401]

Yes, but all that comes later.

I think he's quite attractive, and the fact he appeared in an episode of The Big Bang Theory working in a soup kitchen shows he's got a sense of humour because he certainly didn't need to do it for the money. Can't blame him for being rich, he is the one who worked to get where he is.

a bulging crotch - full of all those $500 notes stuffed in there.

What does that mean?

No-one of press interest is in the early stages of their career - the press start twisting and fabricating as soon as anyone is seen as worthy of column inches.

Yes, very funny.

Now we both know exactly what the word means, we just need the one of us who doesn't know how to use it in a sentence that makes sense, to try and improve, and we'll be good to go.

[Gromit]

Lot of what we know about Musk comes from his own Tweets, in his own words.

[naomi24]

I think he's ugly - and her too come to that - but his money probably helps a lot. I don't agree that women are less shallow than men. Quite the reverse.

[Zacs-Master]

Women are a bit more judgemental tho, don't you think, Naomi?

[naomi24]

Yes.
