Brazil’s first lady, Janja Lula da Silva, swore at billionaire Elon Musk during a G20 social event on Saturday. She spoke about the need to take control of social media to rein in misinformation.
A ship’s horn sounded as she spoke, and she joked, “I think it’s Elon Musk,” before adding, “I’m not afraid of you, fuck you, Elon Musk.”

Musk, owner of social network X, reacted to a video of her remarks by posting a laughing-out-loud emoji graphic. In another post, he added, “They are going to lose the next election,” about President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
The wife of the President spoke on Friday evening during an event held ahead of the Rio de Janeiro summit of the G20 group of largest nations, which is set for Monday and Tuesday.
Musk’s social messaging network was suspended in Brazil for a month this year for failing to name a legal representative and ignoring court orders to block accounts accused of spreading “fake news” and hate messages.
