Musk Denies Dating Rumors with Meloni

A viral photo of Elon Musk and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni at a recent New York event sparked dating rumors, which Musk denied by stating, 'We are not dating.' Musk praised Meloni at the Atlantic Council Global Citizen Award ceremony, calling her 'authentic, honest, and truthful,' and described her as 'more beautiful on the inside than she is on the outside.' Meloni, Italy's first female prime minister, received the award for her strong support of the EU and her leadership. The two have met several times over the past year, including at Meloni's official residence and a political festival. Despite their professional interactions and mutual admiration, Musk clarified there is no romantic involvement. The event took place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, where leaders from over 190 countries gathered.
