“He made a series of impressively insane demands. We declined. Therefore, there was no deal,” Musk wrote on X this morning.

But according to Lemon’s lawsuit , there was a deal.

As part of his new online series, Lemon interviewed Musk on March 8, but a day later Musk informed Lemon’s agent that the deal was off, with the “contract is canceled,” according to the lawsuit. The interview was contentious at times , as Lemon pressed Musk on his past drug use and his embrace of the great replacement theory.

Even though there was no signed agreement, Lemon’s lawsuit claims that there was an “express agreement.”

They “claimed that they never entered into a partnership deal with Lemon, which demonstrates the fraudulent nature of Defendants’ promises and representations in that they had already entered into an express agreement with Lemon and were instead violating that partnership,” according to the lawsuit. “As a result, Defendants have provided false and inconsistent reasons for refusing to pay Lemon that completely contradicts what Musk told Lemon’s agent in his text message.”

Lemon was to get a pay package of $1.5 million, along with other incentives. The lawsuit was filed in Superior Court in San Francisco County on Thursday.
