Uh oh, it looks like Mike Myers has made a powerful enemy, with the American funnyman irking Elon Musk due to an impression of the world's richest man. It's become something of a circus in Washington recently, with the big news being a disastrous meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Things got pretty heated when Zelensky visited the White House, especially when Vice President JD Vance told the Ukrainian President to be thankful to Trump for providing aid.
There were arguments about the way Zelensky dresses, accusations that he called Vance a 'b*tch', and the whole thing descended into chaos.

While Elon Musk wasn't there, he's been dragged into the debacle when Myers performed a skit laughing at the situation on Saturday Night Live.
With James Austin Johnson pulling off a pretty solid Trump impression, Myers Musk stopped by with a chainsaw to joke about his appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference when Argentinian President Javier Milei gave him a gilded chainsaw.
Mocking Musk's role as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency, mass firings from government departments, and spike in plane crashes, Myers-Musk joked: "We’re not going to get it perfect, you know. But we are firing the non-essential employees like air traffic controllers.

"And sure, some of the planes are going to land upside down. But then the luggage falls right into your lap and you’re ready to go."
Bowen Yang also came in as Vance and addressed Mikey Day's Zelenskyy saying: "You haven’t said thank you for the past 15 seconds since I’ve been yelling at you."
SNL's cold open homaged the real-life part of the Trump-Zelenskyy meeting where the POTUS said: "You're not in a good position. You don't have the cards right now with us."
Zelenskyy chimed in: "I’m not playing cards right now, I’m very serious Mr President. I am a wartime president."

SNL Trump says: "I have 'skip.' I have 'draw four.' I have 'reverse.' I have 'get out of jail free' — the Supreme Court gave me that one."

Myers' Musk also wore a 'Tech Support' t-shirt as a nod to the outfit he wore during Trump's first cabinet press conference. That was an equally awkward meeting where Trump joked that he'd fire anyone who didn't think Musk was doing a good job.
Dana Carvey previously portrayed Musk on SNL, and the latter wasn't a fan. Posting on X in November 2024, Musk said: "Dana Carvey just sounds like Dana Carvey."
It seems he's equally unimpressed with Myers' portrayal of him, saying: "Humor fails when it lies."
Others agreed with Musk, with someone else saying: "I wouldn't call this 'funny' but Myers's Musk impression is really brutal."

Another added: "Yeah! The talent is missing at SNL these past couple of years. It’s more like SNUZ. Perhaps a result of DEI."
Someone else mocked the entire situation and said: "This is exactly what happened in White House. And yes, this is not funny - this is a shame for US to have such people in power."
