Chloe Fineman isn't joking around anymore.

The Saturday Night Live star clapped back at Elon Musk's recent criticism of the sketch comedy show by sharing that the Tesla CEO made her cry when he hosted an episode back in 2021. 

"I just saw some news article about Elon Musk being butt hurt about SNL and his impression," Chloe began in a video shared to her TikTok Nov. 11, "but I'm like, 'You're clearly watching the show. Like, what are you talking about?'"

The 36-year-old seemingly alleged that Elon was the anonymous celebrity host that costar Bowen Yang had previously accused of making "multiple cast members cry" because "he hated the ideas."

"I'm gonna come out and say at long last that I'm the cast member that he made cry," Chloe shared, "and he's the host that made someone cry. Maybe there's others."

And the comedian detailed exactly why she broke down during rehearsals for the show, saying, "You made I, Chloe Fineman, burst into tears because I stayed up all night writing this sketch. I was so excited, I came in, I asked if you had any questions and you stared at me like you were firing me from Tesla and you were like, 'It's not funny.'"

"I waited for you to be like, 'Haha, J.K.,'" Chloe continued. "No—then you started pawing through my script, flipping each page like, 'I didn't laugh. I didn't laugh one time.'"

Ultimately, the sketch still got chosen, and Chloe admitted that Elon was "really funny in it"—but she didn't think any of that excused his behavior. As she put it, "Have a little manners here, sir."

E! News has reached out to Elon's PR team at Tesla for comment but hasn't heard back.

Days prior, Elon had criticized comedian Dana Carvey for his impersonation of the tech mogul during an appearance on the Nov. 9 episode of Saturday Night Live

"Dana Carvey just sounds like Dana Carvey," Elon quipped in a Nov. 9 post on X. The 53-year-old also had harsh words for the show as whole. 

“SNL has been dying slowly for years," he continued in another X post. "as they become increasingly out of touch with reality.” 

For more stars who had memorable hosting gigs on Saturday Night Live, keep reading.

With 10 hosting gigs under his belt—including the show's first remotely-filmed episode back in April 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic—you know that when America's Dad is in Studio 8H, you're in for a wonderful time. Don't believe us? We have just three words for you: David. S. Pumpkins.

Hamm left audiences stunned with his considerable comedic chops when he hosted for the first time in 2008. He's has sinced follow up two more times and has had a handful of surprise cameos.

From his unforgettable "Jon Hamm's John Ham" sketch—you know, lunch meat you eat on the toilet—to his live-action Ace in an adaptation of the iconic Ambiguously Gay Duo animated sketch, he's ingratiated himself with cast in a way few other hosts ever have.

There is arguably no one on this planet more committed to their craft than the Bridesmaids legend. Case in point? The "Taste Test" sketch in her first at bat as host, back in 2011, when she covered herself in Hidden Valley ranch dressing for a gag.

In less than a decade, she's already joined the infamous Five-Timers Club, and even began making semi-regular appearances a particularly enraged Sean Spicer during his brief tenure in the Trump administration.

Nearly every celeb on this list could've become a full-time cast member on SNL, easily. And for a time there, it seemed like JT actually might. From "Omletteville," "D--k in a Box," and "Barry Gibb Talk Show" to "Mother Lover," each of Timberlake's five appearances as host made moments that permeated pop culture. And his appearance as one of Beyonce's "Single Ladies" back-up dancers alongside Bobby Moynihan and Andy Samberg? Amazing.

There are few people who have hosted SNL more than the legendary comedian—in fact, there's only one—and in his 16 stints in Studio 8H between 1976 and 2009, he created memorable characters (the "wild and crazy" Festrunk Brothers, King Tut) and delivered what would become one of the show's most heartfelt moments, honoring Gilda Radner's passing from cancer with a look back at a blissful dance the two shared through the studio.

Not only is ScarJo part of the SNL family thanks to her romance with Colin Jost, but the six-time host has created some indelible moments over the years since her debut in 2006.

She's been on hand for whenever the show needed someone to step into Ivanka Trump's shoes, appeared in the grotesque Shud the Mermaid sketch opposite Kate McKinnon and played Lexi (daughter to Fred Armisen's Mark) as the duo hawk chandeliers, ceramic busts, marble columns and porcelain fountains in the fan-favorite sketch.

Unlike everyone else on this list, the late TV icon only hosted SNL once. And, at 88 years old, she became the show's oldest host in its history. The appearance was made even more special because it was literally fan-demanded through a successful Facebook campaign after White's role  in The Proposal

She's also on this list because, well, she was also freaking hilarious. Our favorite sketch from the episode is this absurd one where Tina Fey's census taker tries, in vain, to get a straight answer out of White.

A member of the Five Timer's Club, Johnson earned his spot on this list the minute he agreed to do The Rock Obama. Enough said.

With 17 official hosting gigs on his resume and countless appearances as former President Donald Trump, Baldwin may be the only star not officially on the payroll who is more closely associated with SNL.

From classics like Canteen Boy and Schweddy Balls to impressions of Tony Bennett and, yes, Trump, Baldwin has given fans so much during his many, many visits to Studio 8H.
