Did entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk say, “I’d rather drink sewer water than see Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl,” as a post on Facebook claimed? No, that’s not true: This claim originally appeared in an article on a satirical website known for publishing fabricated content. There is otherwise no publicly available or credible evidence to support this claim.
A version of the claim appeared in a post on Facebook on May 23, 2024, with a caption that read:

The link in the caption of this post led to a kohajone.press article titled, “Breaking: Elon Musk Says ‘I’d Rather Drink Sewer Water Than See Taylor Swift At The Super Bowl.'” It was posted on May 23, 2024.
A Google keyword search revealed that the meme and caption shared on Facebook originated from a February 8, 2024, Facebook post published by the “SpaceX Fanclub” page . The page includes an intro that reads:
We post SATIRE, nothing on this page is real.
In the comment section, the author of this post linked an Esspots.com article with the exact title of the kohajone.press article — “Breaking: Elon Musk Says “I’d Rather Drink Sewer Water Than See Taylor Swift At The Super Bowl” published by the satirical website Esspots on January 20, 2024.
