Alyssa Milano has sparked controversy by accusing Elon Musk of playing a significant role in the downturn of her Hollywood career and financial troubles. On a recent podcast, she linked the changes at Twitter (now rebranded as X) under Musk’s leadership to a rise in toxic online behavior. Milano claims Musk’s hands-off approach to free speech has allowed hate speech, misinformation, and harassment to flourish on the platform, creating a hostile environment that has dissuaded producers and casting directors from working with outspoken celebrities.

Milano believes that industry executives are now steering clear of controversial figures in an effort to avoid the public fallout that could stem from online backlash. She also opened up about her personal financial difficulties, revealing that she has had to drastically cut back on her spending due to fewer acting roles.

While some critics argue that Milano is deflecting responsibility for her career challenges, she remains resolute in her activism, even if it comes at a personal and professional cost. Her comments have ignited a broader conversation about the challenges Hollywood faces in balancing personal advocacy with maintaining a sustainable career.
