Late-night TV hosts Trevor Noah, Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel and Seth Meyers took aim at Time magazine's 2021 Person of the Year recipient: Elon Musk.
“Musk received the honor for his work in space exploration and after he bought 10 million subscriptions to Time Magazine,” Jimmy Fallon quipped on “The Tonight Show.”
“I’m kidding, although it was a little strange that everyone at Time drove into work today in a brand-new Tesla.”Elon Musk thinks tax policy is a game. He should be made to pay. On “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” the veteran comic pointed out that the grand title “isn’t necessarily a compliment,” considering “Adolf Hitler and“Time is basically your dad watching a bad Super Bowl commercial and going, ‘Hey, love him or hate him, we’re all talking about him, right?’” Kimmel said.Meanwhile, on “Late Night,” Seth Meyers took a dig at Musk’s excessive wealth, which has made him a poster child for the progressive “tax the rich” movement.
“He was gonna go out and buy a copy [of Time magazine], but then he realized he’d have to pay taxes on it,” Meyers said.
