Elon Musk says he has Asperger’s on ‘Saturday Night Live’

SPACEX/TESLA founder Elon Musk said during the Saturday Night Live (SNL) show he was hosting for the first time that he has Asperger Syndrome, a kind of autism spectrum disorder.

"I’m actually making history tonight as the first person with Asperger’s to host SNL – or at least the first to admit it. So, I won’t make a lot of eye contact with the cast tonight. But don’t worry, I’m pretty good at running ‘human’ in emulation mode," Musk said.

Musk, the third richest person in the world according to Forbes, brought his mother, Maye Musk, on stage.
