\n\tElon Musk is on track to become the world\u2019s first-ever trillionaire \u2014 and Billie Eilish<\/a>, who just a few weeks ago made her feelings about billionaires quite clear, is not happy about it.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn response to the news that the Tesla CEO\u2019s net worth is nearing 13 digits, the pop star reposted a carousel of infographics<\/a> purporting ways Musk could theoretically use his money for good while choosing to sit on the bulk of his unprecedented wealth instead. Among them are putting an end to world hunger and disease, rebuilding the city of Gaza after it was obliterated in the Israel-Hamas war, and saving endangered species.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter posting several of those panels on individual slides of her Story, Eilish wrote Thursday (Nov. 13) of Musk, \u201cf\u2013king pathetic p\u2014y b\u2014h coward.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBillboard has reached out to Tesla for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe nine-time Grammy winner\u2019s remark comes one week after a landmark shareholder vote <\/a>that entitles the tech mogul to $1 trillion in Tesla stock if he delivers on certain performance goals over the next decade. Musk is already the world\u2019s richest man, with a net worth of $465 billion, according to Forbes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tEilish, meanwhile, recently announced at the Wall Street Journal Innovator Awards that she\u2019ll be donating $11.5 million<\/a> raised on her Hit Me Hard and Soft Tour to organizations fighting environmental risks and world hunger.<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the event, the two-time Oscar winner also looked out at a crowd full of wealthy individuals \u2014 including the world\u2019s sixth-richest man, Mark Zuckerberg \u2014 and said, \u201cIf you are a billionaire, why are you a billionaire?\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cNo hate, but give your money away, shorties,\u201d she added at the Oct. 29 event.<\/p>\n
