Elon Musk revealed that he has asperger’s syndrome on “SNL”

The 49-year-old told viewers that he was “the first person with Asperger’s” to present the cross-country program, out loud.

People with Asperger’s interpret the environment differently than other people.

Mr. Musk is believed to have spoken about his condition for the first time.

The Chief Technology Officer was a guest host of the sketch show – a coveted role that was performed by a number of celebrities since SNLS in the 1970s.

“I don’t always have a lot of intonation or variation in the way I speak. Which I’ve been told makes for great comedy,” he joked in his speech at the beginning

“Tonight I make history as the first person with Asperger’s to host SNL.”

His comment drew a round of applause from the studio audience.

However, some people on social media questioned his statement.

They pointed out that comedian Dan Aykroyd, who like Musk has Tourette’s and Asperger’s syndrome, had already hosted SNL.

Musk also joked about his use of social media as he has faced criticism and even legal threats in the past for his tweets.

“I know sometimes I say or post strange things, but that’s how my brain works,” he said.

“I just want to say I’ve reinvented electric cars and I’m going to send people to Mars in a rocket.”

“Did you think I was going to be a quiet, normal guy as well?”
