The first cut may be the deepest… but the last straw has Sheryl Crow saying goodbye to her Elon Musk-co-founded Tesla.
In a post on Instagram, the singer shares a video of herself waving farewell to her electric car, stating, "My parents always said… you are who you hang with." She continues, "There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla."
Crow’s decision follows a previous exchange where she retweeted Musk’s offer to fix her Tesla screen issue.
"Might I suggest adding some screen controls to the app so that you’re not stuck when the screen goes black? 🤔" she wrote in response.
She also mentions her desire to support NPR, which is currently facing threats due to Musk’s ownership: "Money donated to @npr, which is under threat by President Musk, in hopes that the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth."
It seems Crow has had enough of the Tesla and Elon Musk drama.
"It’s a stark juxtaposition from just 5 years ago," she reflects, "when Crow retweeted Elon when he offered her a fix for a problem she had posted to the social network about her Tesla screen going black."
