[Washington Examiner] Elon Musk denied a report on Sunday that he had an affair with Nicole Shanahan, the wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brinn.The billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX called the Wall Street Journel report "total bs," and he called on the newspaper to run stories that "actually matter." The report is the latest in a string of scandals that have plagued Musk since he announced his intention to purchase the social media platform Twitter, a deal he is in the process of backing out of.
"This is total bs. Sergey and I are friends and were at a party together last night! I’ve only seen Nicole twice in three years, both times with many other people around. Nothing romantic," Musk said in a tweet published on Sunday.
