Elon Musk Denies Epstein Invite: “I refused” Amid Controversy

Elon Musk has personally refuted allegations that he was on the invitation list for Jeffrey Epstein’s island, a list that has mentioned powerful figures from around the world, including U.S. President Donald Trump. Musk stated, “I refused” the invitation.

On December 27, British Sky News reported that alongside Prince Andrew of the British royal family, Elon Musk was listed as “a potential guest for Epstein’s island, Little Saint James, on December 6, 2014, six years after Epstein became a listed sex offender.”

Epstein’s schedule released by the Democratic Party also includes other high-profile individuals alongside Musk.

The documents mention a lunch scheduled with IT billionaire Peter Thiel in November 2017. It also notes a breakfast meeting in February 2019 with Steve Bannon, a right-wing podcaster and close advisor to Trump. It remains unclear whether these meetings actually occurred.

According to reports, Epstein’s daily planner included a note: “Reminder: Elon Musk to island Dec. 6 (Is this still happening?)”

Musk responded on Sunday via his social media platform X, stating, “Shame on Sky News for this utterly misleading headline. Anyone pushing this false narrative deserves complete contempt.” He added, “Epstein tried to get me to go to his island and I REFUSED, yet they name me even before Prince Andrew, who did visit.”

This follows a “bombshell” claim made by Musk in June, in which he claimed that Trump was mentioned in the infamous Epstein documents, causing Tesla’s stock price to plummet.
