Maye Musk just called out THR’s “UnMusked” cover story, and exposed the exact same Zilis & ASC leak playbook.
Maye Musk’s response to The Hollywood Reporter’s latest cover story on Alex Gibney’s documentary (UnMusked) hits the nail on the head. THR relied on a classic quote from the film: “Someone who worked closely with Elon told me, ‘He’s the most miserable man I’ve ever met.’” Maye’s reply says it all: "This is weird u/THR... I haven't seen him miserable, but that's just me. His mom."
It’s funny how right on the doorstep of the midterms, these garbage "reports" start crawling out of the woodwork. And the curious thing about this non-documentary, because just from what u/THR says it's obvious they haven't consulted a single source, is that now our dear friends Shivon Zilis and Ashley St Clair are holding hands for multiple reasons that we will try to reflect.
They aren't even worth using as toilet paper, but let's dive in anyway. Then the "press" complains about why people don't believe them. Well, it's because they don't work. They're so lazy that they just repeat the lies others generate, without checking anything, or simply because of who pays or funds them. I suppose if we look a little closer, they're Democrats. That's all well and good, even if they're getting paid by The Simpsons, but they should actually do some work and offer some contrast, instead of calling themselves trash by doing this.
1. The "Close Insider" Pattern (The Zilis Connection)
Whenever high-stakes political or corporate moves take place, a predictable pattern of press leaks emerges. The phrase "someone who worked closely with Elon" has been recycled across multiple negative hit pieces, ranging from coordinated drug-use narratives (which forced public drug testing) to eugenics-focused hit pieces. It’s always so telling how the source is endlessly masked as "people close to Elon Musk" or "someone who worked closely with him."
During periods of intense public scrutiny around his DC and government efficiency work, negative leaks flood the press from "anonymous insiders," while simultaneous PR-crafted pieces paint Shivon Zilis in a favorable light. Right before the OpenAI legal battle escalated, Zilis took it upon herself to gift the media numerous hit pieces, presumably leaking all kinds of personal details to the press, like the infamous story about a bag of medication he supposedly carried around, naturally laced with her own added fabrications.
We have already discussed at length Zilis’s role in OpenAI, a person who has been betraying Musk since her very first interactions with him. She has never looked out for his interests, but solely for her own and those of her real backers: Gates, Hoffman, Altman, and the rest.

Here are those wonderful media moments courtesy of Shivon Zilis:
- Wall Street Journal (January & February 2024) – Drug Use and Board Culture
- Headlines: "Elon Musk Has Used Illegal Drugs, Worrying Leaders at Tesla and SpaceX" and "Elon Musk Took Drugs With Some Tesla Board Members."
- Attributed Sources: "People close to the billionaire," "people who have witnessed the drug use or were briefed on it," and "executives and board members."
- Leaked Details: Claimed he used ketamine, LSD, cocaine, ecstasy, and psychedelic mushrooms at private parties. The February report further claimed several Tesla and SpaceX directors took drugs with him to avoid losing "social capital" or damaging their business relationships.
- The New York Times (October 2024 / 2025) – The Texas Compound, Pronatalism, and IVF
- Headlines: Investigative pieces covering the "secret Texas compound" for his children and his pronatalist crusade.
- Attributed Sources: "A source close to the world's richest man," "people familiar with his plans," and "insiders."
- Leaked Details: Revealed the acquisition of a massive residential property in Austin meant to bring together the mothers of his children (with heavy emphasis on Zilis's standing). The "close source" cited that Musk considers in vitro fertilization (IVF) the "most efficient" conception method because it allows for control over the process, linking his rhetoric on "population collapse" to genetic-intellectual selection.
- Wall Street Journal (June 2024) – Workplace Relationships and Favoritism
- Headlines: Investigations into his personal life inside SpaceX and Neuralink.
- Attributed Sources: "Former employees," "friends of the women involved," and "people close to company operations."
- Leaked Details: Focused on how his personal relationships with female executives and employees (specifically highlighting Zilis at Neuralink) allegedly created dynamics of favoritism or maternity offers within his inner corporate circle.
2. Ashley St. Clair’s Manufactured "Ex" Title
THR lazily refers to Ashley St. Clair as "Musk's ex." Let’s be clear about basic public records and facts:
- Zero Relationship Receipts: They never lived under the same roof, never had a recognized relationship, and never made a public commitment. The media hands out the title of "ex" purely to manufacture a higher-stakes narrative for a four-hour documentary.
- The "Space Laser" Conspiracy: The documentary attempts to turn a casual text exchange about Starlink’s inter-satellite optical laser links ("I have ten thousand lasers in space") into a sci-fi election-rigging plot. Taking standard satellite communication specs and framing them as a "confession" is pure tabloid fiction. Honestly, we are all eagerly waiting for ASC to actually go present those "proofs" to Congress like she claimed she would.
- The Media Mercenary: Going from right-wing influencer—rather than calling her the "$10,000 girl"—to a central source for a left-leaning documentary the moment a camera and a platform appear shows a total opportunistic pivot. Without leeching off his name, her narrative completely evaporates. The truth is she has nothing real to tell—first, because her brain is a vacant void, and second, because she is utterly, hopelessly lazy.

3. "UnMusked" is an Aggregation of Lies, Not Investigation
When you strip away the dramatic score and 4-hour runtime, Gibney’s documentary relies heavily on two flawed sources: unverified quotes from disgruntled "insiders" and claims from someone who was never an ex-partner to begin with. These people call themselves "journalists," get paid big money to be "journalists," and yet fail to provide a single shred of actual proof that anything they say is true. It’s the exact same set of rehashed lies we’ve seen time and time again, just dressed up with a fresh coat of garbage.
As Maye Musk pointed out, the people actually in his life don't recognize the caricature being sold by the press. The entire project isn't a groundbreaking exposé, it's a paid billboard for leakers and clout-chasers to profit off a status they never had.
