Singer Calls Elon Musk a 'Coward' - Elon Musk’s $1B Tesla payout could make him the first trillionaire—if he hits these goals

Elon Musk's compensation package, approved by Tesla shareholders, could make him the world's first trillionaire. However, the full payout is contingent on him achieving several ambitious corporate milestones by 2035. Meanwhile, singer Billie Eilish has publicly criticized Elon Musk and suggested alternative uses for his wealth.

Musk's compensation package includes a complex set of goals. He must remain Tesla's CEO for a decade, increasing its market value from $1.5 trillion to $8.5 trillion in twelve stages. Additionally, he needs to oversee the delivery of 20 million Tesla vehicles, deploy one million robotaxis, and one million humanoid robots. Musk must also achieve $400 billion in adjusted EBITDA at a $6.5 trillion market cap. If all conditions are met, he could receive up to 423.74 million additional Tesla shares, worth up to $1 billion.

Billie Eilish, known for her social activism, has publicly criticized Elon Musk. She shared a post suggesting he could end world hunger by investing $40 billion annually. The post also proposed he could rebuild Gaza and the occupied West Bank for $53.2 billion and ensure universal access to clean drinking water for $140 billion over seven years. Eilish has previously used her platform to criticize billionaires, including at the WSJ. Magazine Innovator Awards. In a separate post, she called Elon Musk a 'damn pathetic coward' on her Instagram Stories.
