Billionaire Elon Musk’s estranged daughter Vivian Jenna Wilson is headed to the stage in a special theater production.
Wilson, 21, shared a promotional poster on Wednesday for Pattie Gonia’s Save Her! drag show to her Instagram stories, reposting a teaser announcing that she will be “performing in drag for the first time” when the touring show comes to The Bellwether in Los Angeles on June 13.
“AHHHH I’m so excited,” Wilson wrote of the show, which was described as part entertainment-part political message in the name of raising climate change awareness and solutions, Vogue reported.
Wilson appears to have been preparing for a role on the stage well before her participation in Save Her! She has frequently shared clips of her passionately dancing on TikTok, and her fierce dance moves brought the house down at the New York City premiere party for RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars, Page Six reported.

Wilson is one of six children Musk shares with ex-wife Justine Wilson, whom he was married to from 2000 to 2008. Born in 2004, Wilson is a twin to her brother, Griffin. Her siblings, triplets Saxon, and Damian, were born in 2006.
Musk, 53, has welcomed over 14 children with various partners.
On the heels of Wilson coming out as transgender in 2020, and a very public falling out with his daughter over his alleged absent parenting, Musk, 53, said Wilson was “killed by the woke-mind virus” in a viral July 2024 interview with psychologist Dr. Jordan Peterson for the right-wing outlet Daily Wire.
However, Wilson has since taken multiple public opportunities to flame her father right back, rebuking him as a “pathetic man-child” in a Teen Vogue interview amid his political turn.
