Meta Platforms Inc META CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Tesla Inc TSLA CEO Elon Musk have their differences, but it appears one thing they have in common is they are both fans of Taylor Swift.
What Happened: Zuckerberg attended Swift's concert Friday night in Santa Clara, California with his wife and daughters.
"Life of a girl dad," Zuckerberg said in an Instagram post.
But he didn't just attend, he kind of went all out. The Meta Platforms CEO wore a flurry of friendship bracelets on his wrist, which has become a key part of the outfit of any true "Swiftie," and he showed up bedazzled.
Yeah, you read that right. Zuckerberg was bejeweled with what appears to be small sequins or rhinestones in a circle on his face.
Musk has also admitted that he is a Swift fan. Although he compared the singer-songwriter to Jon Heder's "Napoleon Dynamite" character in a since deleted tweet, he also acknowledged that he is a "TS fan - of course" in a comment on the side-by-side photo he shared.
In a separate tweet, the eccentric Tesla CEO also said, "her limbic resonance skill is exceptional."
The rivalry between the two billionaires has heated up since Zuckerberg launched a Twitter (now X) competitor called Threads.
The social media showdown led to talks of a cage match and even an outlandish proposal for a "literal di**-measuring contest."
According to UFC president Dana White, a potential MMA-style fight is being discussed, but nothing has been confirmed. Maybe the two could settle their differences by attending a Swift concert together and swapping friendship bracelets instead. The pop icon is scheduled to play at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles several times over the next week.
