The day following Trump’s reelection in November, she abruptly ceased commenting on Musk’s company, X.
On her remaining social media sites, she posted, “Life is so much better!!!” and announced that she had joined others in severing relations with Tesla.
Midler is hardly the first singer to sell her car, which was manufactured by Musk, in public.
Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow shared a video of her Tesla being towed away in February along with a statement that she was giving NPR the proceeds from the sale.
On Instagram, Crow commented, “There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with.” “Goodbye, Tesla.”
Out of concern for vandalism or support for Musk, some Tesla owners who haven’t sold their cars have admitted to changing them to hide the make and model.
