Elon Musk Ex Ashley St. Clair on Rejecting NDA, Speaking Out in Musk Doc

Key Points:

• Ashley St. Clair, Elon Musk’s ex and mother of his 13th child, rejected a $40 million non-disclosure agreement to speak out in Alex Gibney’s new documentary "Musk," aiming to set an example for her children about truth over material comfort.
• St. Clair, formerly a right-wing political commentator, expressed regret over her past beliefs and involvement in conservative and anti-trans politics, attributing them to youthful ignorance and influence from peers.
• Oscar-winning director Alex Gibney, known for investigative documentaries, began working on "Musk" in 2023 and highlighted widespread fear among Musk’s critics and associates about speaking publicly.
• The nearly four-hour documentary portrays Musk as a modern confidence man whose accomplishments are marked by illusion and misdirection, criticizing his lack of empathy and labeling him as “very dangerous.”
• Musk declined to be interviewed for the film and previously called it a “hit piece,” while Gibney and St. Clair emphasize Musk’s deliberate rejection of empathy and disregard for others.
