A fun fact

A fun fact
Ageless

I have been watching this commercial for months now:

And I got curious if Maye Musk really was ever a cover girl. 

Turns out, yes she was! But that was not just the icing on the cake. 

This is Maye Musk as a model

It turns out, that she is actually Elon Musks mum. Yup, that's right. His mum was a cover girl.

Ok, not trying to be mean here, but Elon must get his looks from his father. He's not as attractive as his mom

He doesn't look like his mom at all. 

That being said, I think he's kind of average looking.

Yeah...that's the word. With a mom that looks like her, you would think he would be better than average looking

Wonder if his dad looked at his mom when he first set eyes on Elon after Elon left the birth canal and said, "are you sure he's yours??"

Did I ever tell you the story about my dad always telling my brother and I that he wasn't our dad he was just the guy who slept with our mom?

That came back to bite him in the ass one day when somebody asked if us he was our dad and we both said "No, that's just the guy who sleeps with our mother"

Mom warned him.....

I totally agree-- he doesn;'t look even a little bit like her.

I'm not sure I believe this story-- I think he may be illegitimate!

(It may have been the postman...???)

She looks pretty good but I still think she might not want the camera to get TOO close.

I am glad you posted this. Sometimes we simply need to stop, slow down, and get some facts. Which you did and it has made me a bit more informed and relaxed about this ad. I have always viewed this ad from across the room, seeing the white-haired woman, wondering who does she think she is to say that?!, and now, now I know. Thanks, Perrie. Not only is she not who I thought she to be, Glenn Close (101 Dalmatians). But, she is somebody else famous with a brilliant (eccentric) son, Elon.

Now that I know I will have more respect for the segment when it airs. Also, a clear indication between us that this ad is shown across the nation.

When I first saw the commercial, I thought maybe she was some sort of fake model. I was shocked to find out that not only was she a CoverGirl, but also that she was Elon Musks mum. 

See what curiosity will do!

I both agree and disagree with you. I do agree she looks pretty good but there are a lot of 70 year old women who look that good.

She's absolutely stunning. Could you imagine Elon's childhood? "Elon ... dude! ... you're mom's a total MILF!"

You gotta admit. A lot of MILF's are hot. But sometimes it's a dry heat.

That was the first thing that came to mind (MILF, hopefully not the dry heat), but then again I'm her age:)

That's why I like you Cobalt, you'll state what the meek think:)

Well, the meek shall inherit the earth they say. Which is fine as long as I retain the mineral rights!

I too am close to her age. But I'll tell you what ... I use Egyptian Magic on my little punim and I must admit it works like a charm. 

How old is baby luther now? He looks about 10 or 12 in the current avatar. My gawd, remember when I was nuts about baby luther???! Goodness, I loved that picture. I've only seen one other baby that looked as happy in their baby picture, and that baby's picture is of my newish boyfriend. Omigawd, every single one of his baby pictures makes me almost cry from happy. What a happy little face he had. Just like my baby luther.
