Tech billionaire Elon Musk is no stranger to making headlines, but his latest White House appearance has fans scratching their heads — and not just because of his outfit.
This week, the X (formerly Twitter) CEO turned heads during a cabinet meeting by donning not one, but two hats — a fashion move that sparked instant viral buzz. But what really had the internet talking? A mysterious mark or scar on Musk’s neck that was caught on camera.
Elon Musk’s “Double Hat” Moment Goes Viral
Seated in the Cabinet Room, Musk wore a bold red cap reading “Gulf of America” — a cheeky nod to President Trump’s recent renaming of the Gulf of Mexico. Beneath that? A second, black cap — stacked like a fashion onion.
Even Trump couldn’t resist chiming in, joking:
“Elon, I love your double hat, by the way. He’s the only one who can get away with that.”
Musk, never short on zingers, responded:
“As they say, I wear a lot of hats. Even my hat wears a hat.”
Within minutes, #DoubleHatDay was trending. Memes flooded social media, comparing Musk to everything from Russian nesting dolls to time-traveling barons.
But humor gave way to curiosity when sharp-eyed viewers noticed a distinct line or scar on Musk’s neck. Theories exploded online — from minor surgery and laser treatment to wilder speculations about implants and clones.
“What’s that slice on his neck??” one TikTok commenter asked.
“Did Elon get a biopsy or something?” wondered another on X.
Is Musk Breaking Dress Code Norms?
Beyond the memes and neck mark chatter, critics questioned the appropriateness of Musk’s attire in such high-level political settings. His casual look — red hat, dark shirt, and mysterious neck blemish — stood in sharp contrast to formal protocol.

When asked why Musk wasn’t expected to follow suit etiquette, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt quipped:
“He did last night,” before adding, “The president liked it very much.”
Musk: A Meme Lord or Power Broker?
This isn’t the first time Elon Musk has mixed performance art with politics. In February, he posted a now-infamous Oval Office photo wearing a giant MAGA hat with arms spread like a superhero. And just weeks ago, he joked about developing a rocket powered by “common sense.”
Whether you see him as tech genius, political disruptor, or just a billionaire with a flair for trolling, one thing is clear — Musk knows how to dominate the narrative, hats and all.
