Elon Musk's Daughter Vivian Wilson: Living Simply and True to Herself

Elon Musk's estranged daughter, Vivian Wilson, has made it clear that she does not consider herself wealthy.

Living in Los Angeles with three roommates to save money, the 21-year-old daughter of the Tesla and Space X billionaire plans to attend a community college to pursue her passion for languages.

Despite assumptions about her financial status, Vivian stated, "College is expensive. I don't have that inheritance. People assume I have a lot of money, but I don't have hundreds of thousands of dollars readily available. My mom is rich, right? But obviously the other one is unimaginable degrees of wealthy."

As a transgender individual, Vivian remains content with her situation, emphasizing that she is more fortunate than many others her age.

"I don't aspire to be extremely wealthy. I can afford basic necessities, have friends, a place to live, and some disposable income, which sets me apart from most young people in Los Angeles," she shared.

Despite gaining prominence as a model for Teen Vogue, Vivian admitted to struggling with fame and missing the anonymity of a regular life.

Reflecting on her newfound celebrity status, she expressed, "I'm not adept at handling fame. It's a skill. I worked hard to be seen as an ordinary person for so long. There was a brief moment before fame when I was unknown, and it was wonderful. I was treated just like anyone else. I sometimes long for that simplicity. But I also appreciate being known... I suppose I'm somewhat indifferent to it. However, I appreciate that it brings financial benefits."

While Vivian faces online negativity, she chooses to focus on the positive support she also receives.

"I concentrate on the encouragement more than the criticism, and it outweighs the negativity," she remarked. "I encounter a lot of hateful comments directed at me. But what can I do about that? I have no choice but to move past it. My trust in people has improved. I initially expected widespread disapproval. It's been a year, and it seems people don't despise me."

Travis Kelce has grown up, says Jason Kelce
Travis Kelce is "changing" because of new people in his life. The 35-sports star has been dating singer Taylor Swift since 2023, and Jason Kelce, Travis' older brother, has been staggered by his sibling's personal evolution. Speaking about his brother's growth, Jason said on the 'Fitz and Whit' podcast: "It’s been staggering, honestly." The 37-year-old star recalled Travis having a Peter Pan-like quality during his younger years. Jason said: "One of the things I love so much about Travis is that he never grew up. He was like Peter Pan, the lost boys." Jason acknowledged that the new people in Travis' life have had a healthy influence on him in recent times. The former NFL star said: "I think that sometimes you get people in your life that maybe get that out of you. That’s a good thing." Despite this, Travis has retained a playful side to his personality. Jason explained: "Trav, he is growing up. He’s still got that youthful enthusiasm. I think he’ll kind of always have that. It’s just part of his personality." Meanwhile, Travis recently admitted to feeling inspired by Taylor during her Eras Tour. The Kansas City Chiefs star admitted to taking inspiration from Taylor, 35, and her record-breaking tour. Speaking ahead of the Super Bowl, Travis explained: "What I saw on that tour last year was pretty remarkable. "To see the week-in, week-out travelling from one country to the next and how excruciating it is on her body and on her mind - and it’s not just her. It was her entire tour. It was an absolute machine and it was something I could admire watching." Travis also revealed that he was focusing on his diet ahead of the Super Bowl. He said: "I’ve been eating clean. I haven’t been drinking as much, a little lower on the pounds this week."

Emma Bunton and Mel B 'reunited in South Korea'
Emma Bunton and Mel B reunited in November to take part in a reality TV show. The 49-year-old pop star and Mel secretly flew to Seoul, South Korea, in late 2024, when they sang alongside K-pop idols for a TV show. A source told The Sun newspaper: "A Spice Girls reunion is a way off. "So having Emma and Mel back on stage singing a Spice Girls song together might be the closest fans get to a comeback, even though it will be with K-pop stars rather than Geri Horner, Melanie C and Victoria Beckham. "They flew to South Korea at the end of last year and were on set for quite a few days as they battled it out with other pop veterans. "With them alone on board, it is a big show. But there’s also Boy George and loads of other chart-topping stars, which will be enough to encourage people to tune in." The reality show will air on Apple TV and will also feature the likes of Megan Thee Stallion and Psy, the 'Gangnam Style' singer. Meanwhile, Melanie recently revealed that she's ready to "start planning" a Spice Girls reunion. The 51-year-old singer would love to reunite with her bandmates to mark the 30th anniversary of 'Wannabe', the group's 1996 hit single. Melanie told Rebecca Judd On Apple Music 1: "There has to be something befitting of 30 years since ‘Wannabe’. "Once a Spice Girl, always a Spice Girl. We all feel like that, but we now are getting together because we know if we're going to do anything, we have to start planning things to get things right. "We have to start making the plans right now and putting them into action. So fingers crossed."
