Elon Musk Soaks Up Sun While Spending Time with Pals Aboard Luxury Yacht in Greece

The world's richest person hung out with Ari Emanuel and wife Sarah Staudinger as he faces a lawsuit from Twitter

Elon Musk is continuing to enjoy his time in Greece.

The billionaire Tesla and SpaceX CEO, 51, on Monday was seen soaking up the sunwhile spending time with friends aboard a luxury yacht moored off the coast of Mykonos, Greece.

Photographs showed Musk shirtless while having a drink back on board after diving into the sea. The group he was spending time with included Ari Emanuel , CEO of the entertainment and media agency Endeavor, as well as his wife Sarah Staudinger . Musk was in attendance when the pair said "I do" back in May.

The timing of the trip took place shortly after Musk filed to terminate his $44 billion deal to purchase Twitter , for which the company is suing him.

Nearly two months after the businessman and philanthropist said that the highly anticipated deal was " temporarily on hold ," he claimed in a July 8 filing that the company was in "breach of multiple provisions" of the original agreement.

"Sometimes Twitter has ignored Mr. Musk's requests, sometimes it has rejected them for reasons that appear to be unjustified, and sometimes it has claimed to comply while giving Mr. Musk incomplete or unusable information," read the court filing obtained by PEOPLE.

On July 12, Twitter launched a lawsuit against Musk to "compel" his completion of the deal. In court documents obtained by PEOPLE, Twitter claimed Musk acted in "bad faith" after reaching a deal to buy the social media platform earlier this year.

"In April 2022, Elon Musk entered into a binding merger agreement with Twitter, promising to use his best efforts to get the deal done," Twitter said in the complaint, filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery.

"Now, less than three months later, Musk refuses to honor his obligations to Twitter and its stockholders because the deal he signed no longer serves his personal interests," it continued.

"Having mounted a public spectacle to put Twitter in play, and having proposed and then signed a seller-friendly merger agreement, Musk apparently believes that he — unlike every other party subject to Delaware contract law — is free to change his mind, trash the company, disrupt its operations, destroy stockholder value, and walk away," the company claimed.

Since then, Musk has responded by tweeting a meme of himself laughing in a series of four photos.

"They said I couldn't buy Twitter, Then they wouldn't disclose bot info, Now they want to force me to buy Twitter in court, Now they have to disclose bot info in court," read the meme.

When Musk filed to terminate the deal, he claimed that Twitter did not provide enough information about the number of fake accounts and bots on the social media platform, and didn't give his team enough data to do their own analysis.

Reps for Musk haven't returned PEOPLE's request for comment about the suit.

Shirtless Elon Musk spotted holidaying on yacht in Greece

Billionaire Elon Musk created a storm when he was spotted soaking up the sun on a luxury yacht in Mykonos — and now he’s hit back.

A shirtless Elon Musk was seen soaking up the sun aboard a luxury yacht in Mykonos, Greece, on Sunday.

The multibillionaire was with a small group that included newlywed pals Ari Emanuel and Sarah Staudinger as they sailed the Aegean Sea on the “Zeus” — an almost $US20,000-per-week motor yacht that can accommodate six guests in over three cabins and comes with a professional crew.

The pictures caused quite a stir on social media, with hundreds of people making an array of comments – mostly very unkind – about the mogul and his physique.

Musk himself responded to the uproar on his Twitter account, posting a reference to freeing the nipple.

“Haha damn, maybe I should take off my shirt more often … free the nip!!” he wrote.

Musk, 51, boarded the swanky boat wearing a plain white T-shirt, black swim trunks, dark sunglasses, a black baseball cap and matching flip-flops.

The Tesla CEO soon stripped down to just his bathing suit and took a dive into the ocean. Once back on the yacht, Endeavour CEO Emanuel — long held to be the inspiration for fictional Hollywood agent Ari Gold in “Entourage” — hosed him down.

Musk was later seen enjoying a cocktail before the group headed out to explore the island.

The SpaceX founder — who recently confirmed to Page Six exclusively that he had welcomed his 10th child — did not seem the least bit bothered by Twitter’s massive lawsuit against him.

Musk first agreed to buy the social media website for $US44 billion in April but pulled out of the deal earlier this month on the belief the platform may be lying about what percentage of its users are bots.

In their filing, Twitter’s attorneys described Musk’s claim as a “bad faith” attempt to walk away from the agreement.

In response, Musk called the company’s suit “meritless” and told a judge that he needs until next year to formally respond.

The business tycoon informed us earlier this month that he had quietly welcomed twins with his Neuralink executive, Shivon Zilis, in November 2021, adding that he had no plans to stop procreating.

When congratulated on the newest additions to his brood, he replied, “Thanks,” followed by, “Bravo to big families.”

When asked how many kids he would like to have, Musk said, “As many as I am able to spend time with and be a good father.”

Elon Musk’s Viral Shirtless Photos Have Sparked A Conversation Around Body-Shaming After Some People Argued That He “Deserves” To See The Memes Mocking His Physique

“There are plenty of ways to criticize Elon Musk without engaging in body shaming.”

BuzzFeed News Staff

Earlier this week, billionaire Elon Musk was spotted out on a luxury vacation in Mykonos, Greece, with a group of friends.

The tech mogul was photographed shirtless aboard a luxury yacht in a series of pictures released by the paparazzi .

Well, the photos quickly captured the interest of countless people on the internet, as tons of Twitter users seemingly couldn’t help but comment on the 51-year-old’s physique.

The discourse quickly wound up inspiring a ton of memes making fun of Elon, with several people mocking his frame and comparing it to the likes of Immortan Joe and Dr. Robotnik .

And some users who made fun of Elon justified their tweets by drawing attention to his controversial lifestyle.

The wealthy business mogul, who has an estimated net worth of almost $300 billion, has long defended his wealth against people who deem him and other billionaires “ unethical ,” given that a large amount of the global population still lives far below the poverty line. However, he says he doesn’t consume “billions of dollars a year” for “personal” reasons.

The Tesla CEO also has a history of sharing ignorant tweets, memorably offending members and allies of the LGBTQ+ community when he unwarrantedly said that “ pronouns suck ” a couple of years ago. In fact, just last month, Elon’s transgender daughter cut ties with him completely, revealing that she didn’t want to be related to him in “any way, shape, or form” as she filed legal documents requesting to change her name.

What’s more, as several Twitter users mentioned, Elon has publicly body-shamed others himself. Back in April, he tweeted a photo of Bill Gates alongside the pregnant man emoji and wrote: “in case u need to lose a boner fast.”

So, some users argued that mocking Elon’s body was justified because of his controversial opinions.

“Body shaming is okay if it's someone we don't like,” one person wrote , while another suggested that billionaires “ don't deserve privacy .”

Others went so far as to tweet that Elon actually “deserves” to be body-shamed. “elon musk deserves it all idc,” read one comment referencing all of the memes about his frame.

Well, with the subject trending all over Twitter, it wasn’t long before Elon — a frequent user of the platform — actually entered the conversation himself to react to some of the remarks firsthand.

Responding to just two of the many memes circling the site, Elon firstly replied to someone who tweeted a picture of him shirtless and sipping a drink.

“Haha damn, maybe I should take off my shirt more often … free the nip!!” Elon wrote .

And then, in response to someone who placed a photo of the tech mogul beside a dog, implying that they looked alike, Elon simply quipped : “My calves are bigger tho.”

While Elon seemed unfazed by the ongoing mockery, several fans have since jumped to his defense and argued that “nobody deserves to be body shamed, regardless of who they are.”

“I keep seeing posts making fun of how Elon Musk looks while outside in his bathing suit and it honestly makes me sad. Nobody deserves to be body shamed, regardless of who they are,” one person tweeted. “Not only that, Elon probably won’t see your posts, but your friends with the same body type will.”
