Tycoon Elon Musk claims that “not a trace” of drugs was found in his system after three years of random tests, in response to an article in The Wall Street Journal who accuses him of consuming “illegal drugs.”
In a message on his social network,
“No trace of drugs or alcohol was found,” Musk wrote on Sunday morning.
The message responded to an X user commenting on the article The Wall Street Journalin which the outlet cites sources “close to Musk” who are concerned about his continued use of drugs, and especially ketamine.
According to the media, the businessman has consumed LSD, cocaine, ecstasy and hallucinogenic mushrooms at private parties where attendees had to sign confidentiality agreements or leave their cell phones at the entrance.

One of his lawyers assured the media that the businessman regularly undergoes drug tests at SpaceX and that “he has never failed any test.”
Musk, 52 years old, has received almost constant criticism for his erratic behavior, and especially after the purchase of the social network Twitter, in 2022.
Since then, the platform has undergone numerous transformations, changed its name, and suffered an advertiser boycott after Musk himself published a message supporting an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory.
Musk is also the CEO of the electric car manufacturer Tesla and the aerospace company SpaceX.
