The Oscar 2025 followed a course electrifying last night when the veteran actor Richard Gere lit a storm of fire by publicly moving the billionaire Elon Musk as an idiot during a live segment of the ceremony. The explosion of fortune, observed by millions of people, led to immediate consequences for green – and an explosive musk reaction that made the audience full of gaping stars.
The incident took place during a tribute segment in honor of cinematographic and technological innovation, where Musk, Tesla and SpaceX Tycoon, was a special guest host. When Gere went on stage to present a prize for all the work, he left the script. “I should talk about progress tonight,” said his firm but sharp voice, “but it is difficult to celebrate when an idiot like Elon Musk sits in the front row, pretending to be the future.” The crowd was silent by a fraction of a second before exploding in a mixture of huae, applause and nervous laughter.
Gere’s farpa seemed to refer to the polarizing personality of Musk – their frank opinions, their controversial X messages and the recent commercial movements that upset the elite of Hollywood. But the 75 year old -old, known as classics like * a beautiful woman * and * chicago *, clearly underestimated the cost of her words.
Musk, sitting in good place near the scene, did not hesitate. Rising, 53-year-old Titan technology has taken a microphone from an amazed host and retaliated: “Richard, I made more progress in a week than you got it throughout your career. You feel embarrassing.” The scathing response attracted wild applause of certain participants and an audible shock of others, transforming the Oscar into a makeshift battlefield.
The presenter Jimmy Kimmel had a hard time regaining control, playing: “Well, I think we have our first Oscar fight!” But the damage has already been caused. In a few minutes, Green was escorted behind the scenes by the producers, supposedly due to the insistence of network managers fearing an RP disaster.
Sources say that the explosion of Gere was expensive. At the end of the night, his next film – a high -level drama scheduled later this year – lost a large distributor, with sources citing “the pressure of the Musc allies in the industry”. Social media has lit up by reactions, while #Gerevsmusk has become a global trend. Musk has promised the flames, tweet of his current account at X: “Green it is angry because your films do not come out of rockets. Trisque!” The position has accumulated millions of likes, amplifying humiliation.
Hollywood’s response was fast and divided. Some have praised Green’s audacity, Ava Duvernay, tweeted: “Finally, someone said that aloud” while others, like the former producer Harvey Weinstein, Scott Rudin, called “professional suicide”. The Gere team has published a brief declaration: “Richard maintains their principles, but regrets any interruption at night.”
The Gere-Musk confrontation emphasizes the deeper tensions between traditional Hollywood and the growing influence of the technological world. Musk, an amateur frequent of the Oscars because of his visual effects and his advances in the cinema, was hard. Gera, a frank and Buddhist activist, criticized the billionaires of technology to “accumulate wealth” in previous interviews – a feeling that probably fueled her provocation to the Oscars.
While the ceremony continued, the absence of Green was palpable, and the presumptuous smile of Musk in the front row has become a meme in X. If he marks the end of the historic career of Gere or a difficult new chapter is not yet clear. One thing is certain: in the Oscar of 2025, the real drama was not on the screen – it was in the room.
