Elon Musk: 'Maybe I Should Take Off My Shirt More Often'

Billionaire Elon Musk was recently spotted partying on a yacht in Mykonos, Greece.

The 51-year-old Tesla CEO was accompanied by the founder of the Staud fashion brand, fashion designer Sarah Staudinger, 33, and her husband, agent Ari Emanuel, 61. His life and career served as the inspiration for the hit HBO series "Entourage."

Musk was photographed swimming about in the water, drying off with a towel, and enjoying a drink on board the yacht in dozens of photographs shared by the Daily Mail. The pictures ultimately started going viral on Twitter, and even the SpaceX founder couldn't help but joke about it.

On Monday, the world's richest man, at least according to Forbes, took to Twitter to comment on a shirtless photo of him that has been going viral online.

"Haha damn, maybe I should take off my shirt more often … free the nip!!" he tweeted, before adding that he was already back in the factory.

Of course, it's very likely that Musk was just enjoying some R&R over the weekend and was already back to work by Monday when the pictures were finally distributed online. Some people didn't buy it, but many of his supporters wished him well.

One user tweeted, "Good morning from ?? @elonmusk. I am very happy to see you relaxing [on] vacation and [taking] time for you, having fun. Enjoy [these] beautiful days, stay safe, healthy, and be happy."

Still, the comments did not stop there. The Internet was going crazy with the shirtless photos and it seemed that everyone had to weigh in with a comment.

"A warning would be nice before you posted this picture," one user commented.

"?OMG!! My first thought was he can not be that white. ?Woah!" another user wrote.

"Oohh Mommy! ?He needs to get out in the sun more often. He's practically Casper the friendly ghost," another user joked.

Even more users took aim with Musk's complexion, with one user commenting, "My goodness that is white privilege."

Another user said that Elon Musk is "glowing! And not in the good way."

Another user commented, "Good god man, he can afford a spray tan. Fish belly white. ?"

"Is he covered in sunscreen?!" another user asked. "Or is that him?"

Dogecoin creator Billy Markus goes by Shibetoshi Nakamoto on Twitter. On Monday night, he tweeted, “if you could upload your brain to the cloud, and talk to a virtual version of yourself, would you be buddies?”

"Already did it," Musk replied, which prompted a lot of users to wonder if he was joking. Many came to the conclusion that he was, but that didn't stop the jokes.

"This Tuesday just took on a whole new dimension," one user joked.

"Answer the question Elon, were you buddies?" another asked.

"Plot twist. We are already in a simulated reality," another concluded.
