In a surprising announcement on Monday, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk took to his X handle to declare himself the new Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer at The Walt Disney Company, the renowned American multinational mass media and entertainment conglomerate.
Expressing his enthusiasm for the role, Musk conveyed his eagerness to work with the Disney team in reshaping their content.
In a tweet, he exclaimed, “Excited to join @Disney as their Chief DEI Officer. Can’t wait to work with Bob Iger & Kathleen Kennedy to make their content MORE woke! Even the linguini.”
However, it’s worth noting that Musk’s proclamation was made on April Fool’s Day, a time notorious for prank announcements and mischievous antics.
Given the unconventional nature of Musk’s social media presence and the historical tension between Disney and himself, caution is advised in interpreting his statement.
Disney, a global leader in entertainment and information, has yet to confirm or comment on Musk’s purported appointment.
As Musk is renowned for his unpredictability, the veracity of his claim remains uncertain at this time.
