The photo shows Musk and Brin partying outdoors with two unidentified women. It’s unclear where exactly it was taken – Musk was last seen in Mykonos last week. The fun-loving image was given to The New York Post last night as Musk worked overtime to discredit the Journal’s claim that he had slept with Shanahan at Art Basel last year and, in the process, ruined his friendship with Brin
“Nicole and Sergey’s divorce has absolutely nothing to do with me,” Musk insisted by email.
“I am sure both Nicole and Sergey would confirm that. I spoke with both Sergey and Nicole about this and they say the story isn’t coming from them, so [it] must be a case of broken telephone, two or three layers removed,” he said.
“And, not to dodge the question, I have only seen Nicole twice in three years, both times with many other people around.
“We were not romantically involved in any way,” he insisted.
The Tesla mogul shared a similar message on Twitter while replying to a message claiming he “banged” Shanahan and was “apparently no longer friends” with Brin, who had propped up Tesla during the 2008 financial crisis.
“This is total bs,” he tweeted.
This is total bs. Sergey and I are friends and were at a party together last night!
I’ve only seen Nicole twice in three years, both times with many other people around. Nothing romantic.
