Vivian Jenna Wilson, the estranged daughter of Elon Musk, performed at an anti-ICE fundraiser drag show in Los Angeles on June 15. Dressed in a black bodysuit and heeled boots, she made her drag debut as Vivllainous, whipping her long blonde hair, parading the trans pride flag, and wowing the crowd with her energetic performance. The show, called SAVE HER! — An Environmental Drag Show, was held at The Bellweather in downtown LA, just a few metres away from the ongoing immigrant rights protests, according to Out Magazine.

The report said that all the proceeds from the drag show went to an immigration legal defense fund for anyone impacted by recent ICE raids. “Thank you so much to everyone for a life-changing experience while helping raise money for those in need,” Vivian wrote in an Instagram post, sharing photos from the event. She told Out Magazine that she would love to perform as a drag king more often. "It’s on my bucket list to win a drag pageant... I would eat that up."

Vivian Wilson, Elon Musk relationship

Vivian is a trans woman and has allegedly 'disowned' her father Elon Musk due to his conservative views. In 2022, Vivian filed to change her name and, in the process, publicly denounced her father. At that time, she stated in a court filing that she no longer lived with Musk and did not "wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape, or form." 

Vivian is one of Elon Musk's 13 children. In July 2024, the 21-year-old shared that her father had been "uncaring" and "cruel" towards her, particularly in relation to her being queer and feminine. She revealed that he was often absent and would "harass her for exhibiting feminine traits," even pressuring her to appear more masculine by pushing her to deepen her voice as early as elementary school.

The interview came as a response to remarks made by Musk regarding her identity. In an interview with Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson streamed live on X, Musk used Vivian’s birth name, an act known as 'deadnaming.' He claimed that she was "dead, killed by the woke mind virus," and alleged that he had been "tricked" into authorising gender-affirming care for her. He further insisted that Vivian was "born gay and slightly autistic" but was "not a girl."

Vivian asserted that her father's comments had "crossed a line." She countered that Musk "knew what he was doing when he agreed to her treatment" when she was 16. She believed her father assumed she would remain silent, but she decided to speak out because "if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just going to let that slide." She also posted a series of tweets exposing her father for the transphobic lies he has recently spread about their relationship.
