The very thought of appearing on “Saturday Night Live” with billionaire visionary Elon Musk when he hosts the show May 8 has some of the show’s cast so distraught that according to a source for the New York Post, the powers-that-be on the show are coddling them and reassuring them they won’t have to be seen with him.

The source told Page Six of the Post, “Speaking historically, if a cast member has been that unhappy, they don’t have to do it. [“Saturday Night Live” boss Lorne Michaels] won’t ever make them do anything they don’t want to do.”
