Maye Musk, swimsuit model and mother of Elon Musk, joined OutKick’s “Tomi Lahren Is Fearless” to tackle Sydney Sweeney, government fraud, and her 18 grandkids.
Musk jumped into defending Sydney Sweeney after the actress caught online heat over going nude for a sports ad.
Lahren noted that Musk, who famously graced the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover at age 74, knows a thing or two about the industry.

“She’s a model,” Musk told Tomi. “Well, she’s an actress, but she’s a model and modeling, you can look sexy and acting, you can look sexy and have fun.”
“I think she’s fabulous,” Musk added. “I mean beautiful, fabulous and she seems to have a great sense of humor. So she’ll need it.”

To Maye, women can use their looks to build massive careers and have fun without taking a lecture from progressives.
Musk also slammed tax dollars funneled to dead people and fake nursing homes, praising independent journalist Nick Shirley as “cheeky,” “smart,” and “funny” for exposing millions sent to an empty Minnesota learning center.

Then, things got real when Musk recalled her own 12-year grind to earn American citizenship.
“When I moved to America, it took me 12 years to become a citizen,” Musk said. “When I was there with the ceremony, I was just crying. I was so happy to be a citizen.”
Maye contrasted playing by the rules with illegal migrants receiving taxpayer-funded hotels and benefits, questioning why Americans are footing the bill.

Musk wrapped things up with a simple rule for her 18 grandkids: no Christmas presents, just hugs.

“You never have enough hugs,” Musk said. “Hugs count.”
Maye’s next move … hit a Tennessee Volunteers football game with Lahren in Knoxville. Go Vols.
