Elon Musk is challenging Jennifer Lopez's credibility after she urged voters to reject Donald Trump for president. The 53-year-old X boss questioned JLo during a conversation with fellow Trump supporter Joe Rogan, 57, on his podcast, "The Joe Rogan Experience," following the "Jenny from the Block" singer's impassioned speech at Harris' Las Vegas rally last week. After JLo cautioned people against electing Trump, Musk brought up her past relationship with Sean "Diddy" Combs, who was accused of sex trafficking from 1999-2001. The rapper has denied these allegations.
"JLo was like his ex-girlfriend and it's like now deciding she's like warning people against Trump," Musk told Rogan. "How many people did she warn against Diddy, right? Oh zero, okay. Maybe we shouldn't trust her opinion."
The Post has contacted JLo's representative for comment. Rogan also questioned Harris' celebrity endorsements, suggesting that many of the stars supporting the vice president had past social or business connections with Diddy.
"It's peculiar that so many who frequented his gatherings are now outspoken supporters of Harris," the podcast host stated. "Clearly, he was doing it for his own jollies too, there was something sick about it."
Musk further claimed, "People in the music entertainment industry had to know that Diddy was like abusing, you know, kids basically and yet they still fed him kids. Like where's the accountability? They had to know."
After their two-hour interview, Rogan endorsed Trump in the 2024 election, a decision he made at the last moment. He recently interviewed the former president in an Oct. 25 podcast episode. Meanwhile, Lopez addressed Harris' Sin City crowd to defend Puerto Rico after a comedian disparaged the U.S. territory as "a floating island of garbage." The actress also emotionally argued that Trump was not the right candidate for the future.
"I believe in the power of women. I believe that women have the power to make the difference in this election. I believe in the power of Latinos. I believe in the power of our community. I believe in the power of all our votes," Lopez told the crowd.
Her high-profile relationship with Diddy ended in 2001 after a 1999 shooting inside a Times Square club that injured three bystanders. Lopez was released from custody without charges after 14 hours in jail. Her romance timeline with Diddy came under scrutiny following his Sept. 16 arrest. The embattled rapper is currently incarcerated in Brooklyn's Metropolitan Detention Center while awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges.
Rodney "Lil Rod" Jones sued Diddy earlier this year, alleging that the Bad Boy Records founder was "responsible for the shooting in the nightclub in New York" and claimed Diddy boasted about using Lopez to smuggle a gun into the club. "He shared that artist, and Mr. Combs' girlfriend at the time, Jennifer Lopez, aka, J.Lo carried the gun into the club for him and passed him the gun after he got into an altercation with another individual," Jones alleged in the lawsuit. Diddy has denied these accusations.
Diddy was also accused of sexual assault against a 13-year-old girl the same night he was photographed arguing with Lopez at a party. The alleged incident reportedly occurred later that night, raising questions about the dynamics of Diddy's relationship with Lopez. She has remained silent about her ex's legal issues. Diddy has pleaded not guilty to the charges and will remain behind bars until his sex trafficking trial set for May 5, 2025.
