The 2025 Oscar Awards ceremony has become the attention of the world’s attention when Richard Gere, a veteran Hollywood star suddenly criticized Elon Musk just on stage. In a dramatic moment, Gere described Musk as “bastard”, referring to the controversial and influential speeches of this billionaire of technology in society. This statement not only made the auditorium calm, but also made the public around the world could not detach his eyes from the screen. But what really made people amazed was Musk’s instant reaction, which was also present at the event.

Immediately after the Gere attack, the camera captured Musk, seated in the public seats, got up and replied with a brief but acute prayer: “At least I believe something, what about you?” This answer immediately made people laugh and whisper in the auditorium, transforming the stretched situation into an unforgettable response. Without stopping there, Musk went to X to continue against the counterattack, wrote that “Hollywood lives in the past” and Gere “should find something useful to do”. The publication quickly attracted millions of interactions, operating on social networks.

This incident seems to come from previous conflicts between the two. Gere, a person who actively supports human rights problems, criticized Musk for the management of Twitter and the controversial policies of Tesla. Meanwhile, Musk, with a style that is not afraid of collision, often makes fun of the world of entertainment that he thinks is “far from reality”. The confrontation in the Oscars is only the peak of tension for a long time.

Gere fans said that he courageously expressed the thoughts of many people in the industry, while supporters of musk considered it a non -professional action, aggravating the image of a prestigious event. In any case, the incident transformed the Oscar 2025 into one of the most memorable nights in history, not only for art but also for superior drama. While Gere was silent after the event, Musk continued to stir public opinion, leaving a big question: Hollywood and Silicon Valley have been in harmony?
