AceShowbiz - In a recent episode of the "Club Shay Shay" podcast, comedian and actor Marlon Wayans harshly criticized tech billionaire Elon Musk for his controversial treatment of his 20-year-old transgender daughter Vivian Wilson. Wayans, who has a transgender son of his own, expressed his outrage and shared his journey towards acceptance, drawing a stark contrast with Musk's actions.

"I don't like what he be saying about his trans child," Wayans, 52, told host Shannon Sharpe. "It made me mad. You don't treat them babies like that, you don't disown your baby."

Wayans went on to say he felt compelled to "drive his Tesla 'over a cliff'" due to Musk's comments, positioning himself as an advocate for love and support for transgender children.

Wayans, who publicly discussed his 24-year-old son Kai Wayans' transition in November 2023, recounted his own emotional journey through the "five stages of grief" to find acceptance. "I'm proud to say it took me a week - but it felt like forever. I'm sad to say some parents, some family members, and some people it'll take them a lifetime," he shared. "They'll never get to that magical place that I'm at which is just acceptance. [He's] still my child. That's my baby."

Conversely, Musk has shown little inclination toward acceptance. Musk was openly dismissive when Wilson sought a name and gender change in June 2022, also opting to take her mother's surname and sever ties with her father. Musk retorted with a nonchalant "You can't win them all," and more disturbingly, he declared Wilson had been "killed by the woke-mind virus" in a Daily Wire interview.

Wayans reiterated his message during an appearance on "The Jennifer Hudson Show", affirming, "I just want my kids to be free... The more you live your truth, the happier your existence." He emphasized that despite the challenges, his child remained the same person at heart, only now with a beard.
