Elon Musk called out by Princess Bride actor after quoting beloved movie
Mandy Patinkin, known for playing swordsman Inigo Montoya in the 1987 film The Princess Bride, has mocked Twitter CEO Elon Musk for quoting one of Montoya’s famous lines. In an interview with CNBC Musk was asked about his controversial and sometimes false comments made on Twitter. Musk told interviewer David Faber: ‘You know, I’m reminded of. There’s a scene in The Princess Bride - great movie - where he confronts the person who killed his father and he says, ‘Offer me money, offer me power, I don’t care.’’ ‘So you just don’t care?’ Faber followed up. ‘I‘ll say what I want to say and if the consequence of that is losing money, so be it,’ Musk replied.

In response to Musk’s comment, Patinkin quote tweeted a clip of the interview, writing: ‘I do not think it means what you think it means.’ Fans loved Patinkin’s comment: Some even pointed out that Musk got the quote wrong, emphasising his lack of understanding of the movie. Patinkin has not shied away from speaking up in recent weeks. He was seen picketing outside Warner Bros Discovery’s offices amongst other writers for the ongoing WGA strike amongst TV and film writers. He held a sign referencing another iconic quote from The Princess Bride, Reading ‘you killed residuals prepare to pay!’ Of course referring to the line, ‘hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die.’ Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.

Did Kanye West get married again?
Celebrity gossip rumours suggest controversial rapper Kanye West has married again, but who is his partner and are they actually legally married? West is in a relationship with Australian architectural designer Bianca Censori, who is in her late twenties, and the pair have been photographed together making headlines in the process. Some outlets have suggested that the pair are married after Censori was spotted wearing a large ring on her left hand. She was photographed leaving a Los Angeles restaurant in the company of West, 45, along with a larger entourage including the fashion designer Mowalola Ogunlesi. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter A few days later, Ogunlesi shared images of Censori on Instagram modelling a very revealing outfit crafted from what appears to be black tape. Once again, a ring could be spotted on the fourth finger on the left hand of Censori as she held her phone to take a picture in one of the images posted. It’s believed the pair may have been romantically linked since as early as late 2022 after Kanye released a track with the title Censori Overload. Reports about their relationship emerged in January 2023, along with reports that they had held “some sort of wedding ceremony” but no official marriage certificate has emerged. It hasn’t stopped either of them from wearing wedding bands, with West reportedly sporting the ring to symbolise his “commitment to her”. West’s former wife, reality star Kim Kardashian, filed for divorce from the rapper in January 2021 and it was finalised in November 2022. The pair share four children together.
