Paloma Faith has left X because she was upset by what Elon Musk said.

British singer Paloma Faith has made the decision to leave the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, due to recent comments made by Tesla CEO Elon Musk. The controversial businessman, who acquired X in 2022, has been facing backlash for his remarks about the UK riots, which many have deemed as "dangerous".

Paloma, known for her hit song "Only Love Can Hurt Like This", took to X to share her thoughts on Musk's comments. As someone who stands for justice, fairness, and equality, she expressed her deep concern and disappointment with his words. "I am vehemently anti-racist, anti-fascist, and X/Twitter has become misaligned with these values, therefore I've decided to leave the platform," she wrote in a post that received overwhelming support from her fans.

This isn't the first time Paloma has spoken out against the ongoing riots in the UK. Earlier this week, she condemned the "right-wing idiots" responsible for the violence, stating that as a mother to two half Muslim North African children and a proud member of the Hackney community, she stands against any form of racism. "We cannot scapegoat minorities for this country's problems," she wrote on Instagram, "All they have done is contribute to the rich, diverse culture that I grew up in and love."

Paloma's message on Instagram may have been the first to announce her departure from X, but she is not alone in calling out Musk. The SpaceX founder has been tagged in several tweets by concerned individuals, including newsreader Krishnan Guru-Murthy, who has invited him for an interview to discuss his controversial statements. On August 9, Musk himself took to X to express his support for freedom of speech in the UK.

It's clear that Musk's words have caused a ripple effect, with Paloma being just one of many voices speaking out against them. But for the singer, it was a matter of standing up for her values and beliefs. "As someone dedicated to justice, fairness, and equality, I am deeply troubled by Elon Musk's recent comments," she wrote, "Love and solidarity. Paloma."
