Elon Musk got punched in the face — You’ll never guess who did it

Elon Musk is back in the news, and this week it's been for things other than his work. Recently, reports of the billionaire being addicted to drug use went viral on the Internet, with publications and people reporting instances where they believed Musk was on drugs. Now, a day later, Musk bid his farewell to his role within the Trump administration with an appearance at the Oval Office that raised eyes among many.The billionaire attended a press conference with President Trump and vowed to remain a "friend and advisor to the US president." While his parting words as the head of DOGE should have been the main focus, people could not remove their eyes from his face, which sported a huge black eye.Well, when questioned by the media about his black eye, Musk revealed that it was none other than his son Lil X, who did it, adding that he punched him while playing. "I was just horsing around with lil' X, and I said, 'Go ahead, punch me in the face, and he did'," said Musk.Even the US president, whose interaction with Lil X went viral on the internet, agreed to the claim, adding, "If you knew X, X could do it."After The New York Times reported on Musk's alleged drug use, which even damaged his bladder, people all around have been looking for signs of confirmation. And Musk spotting a black eye during a press conference seemed to be one until he clarified it.However, when asked about the drug allegations, the billionaire quickly dodged the question, saying, "Let's move on. Okay. Next question."Netizens of course went gaga over Musk sporting a black eye with questions on its origin and then suspicion over the claim that it was his son who did it."Musk's officially blamed his black eye on his 5 year old son, claiming he told him to punch him as a game. However, on closer inspection you can see other bruising and scratches." wrote a person on X marking other places where Musk could be seen having scratches on his face.Interestingly, while some parents on the internet seemed to agree with Musk, others didn't. "To be fair, my 2 year old punches me in the face at least twice per day," wrote an X user. "Most littles would not be able to hit that hard. I have 4 kids- never had a bruised face by any of them 🥹" wrote another.Many questioned if his black eye was another sign of being on drugs, writing, "Is Elon Musk high???! What's up with the black eye????"
