Zuckerberg and Musk Roast Silicon Valley’s Nerdy Party Crashers

Kumail Nanjiani got tart reviews from tech royalty—Elon Musk grumbled that 'the parties I go to are much cooler,' after seeing "Silicon Valley"'s depiction of nerdy gatherings. Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg nearly gave Nanjiani a personal 'What the fuck was that?' backstage during a stiff science awards show. According to Nanjiani, Musk was 'upset' by the show's first scene and Zuckerberg was unimpressed with their comedy bit, especially considering many audience scientists 'don’t speak English.' Silicon Valley's real-life heavy hitters proved that even nerdy actors can't avoid getting grilled by the Silicon bosses.
