A three-word comment from Tesla chief Elon Musk, claiming he gave himself a haircut, has left his followers amused. When a Tesla fan account complimented Musk, who sported a quirky Mohawk, the billionaire replied with this sense of humour intact. “Did it myself,” he said.
This isn’t the first photo of the latest haircut that caught the followers’ attention. Last week, photos did the rounds online of Musk arriving at Miami International Airport sporting the haircut with the sides of his head shaved. He was accompanied by his youngest son X Æ A-XII, his nanny and his pet dog.
The photographs sparked a meme fest on social media with one user even comparing Musk’s haircut to that of North Korea’s Kim Jong Un.
Many people found Musk's haircut similar to that of actor Cillian Murphy's character, Tom Shelby, in British drama series, "Peaky Blinders".
Elon Musk, an active user of Twitter, has over 65 million followers on the platform and is one of the few billionaire CEOs who enthusiastically interacts with his followers on social media. He regularly shares his thoughts on subjects that catch their eye with emojis, one-liners and memes.
In January this year, Musk surpassed Amazon chief Jeff Bezos to become the world’s richest man, Bloomberg News reported. The 50-year-old's personal wealth has been boosted by last year’s more than eight-fold surge in the shares of Tesla, which became the world’s most valuable carmaker.
