Video Of The Day: Elvira Just Gave Elon Musk The Ultimate Goth Goodbye

Actress Cassandra Peterson turned her Tesla into a rolling Musk roast—then sent it off with the most iconic farewell.

It’s a Video of the Day double feature!

Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, just served up the gothest middle finger to Elon Musk—and we are living for it. Cassandra Peterson, the horror icon behind the beloved vampy vixen, turned her Tesla into a moving billboard of disdain, proudly displaying “Elon Sux” in giant letters across the side. The shade didn’t stop there—she also took aim at Musk’s out-of-touch demand that federal employees list their top five accomplishments, offering her own list that read:

1: Woke up
2: Brushed my teeth
3; Signed autographs
4: Your mom
5: Got a new paint job on my Tesla!

Legendary behavior.

But Peterson, who came out publicly in her 2021 memoir, wasn’t content with just clowning the billionaire. In a follow-up video, she gleefully watched as her “Elon Sux-mobile” was towed away, announcing that she had donated it to NPR—an organization Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has on its target list.

Wearing a “Make America Goth Again” hat and waving a chainsaw like a woman on a mission, she sent the car off with ACDC’s “Highway to Hell” blasting in the background, flipping the bird for good measure. If this is the energy 2025 is bringing, we’re absolutely here for it.
