Trans icon and influencer, Vivian Jenna Wilson – the daughter of tech billionaire Elon Musk – is celebrating her fifth year as her authentic self, she has said.
The 21-year-old TikTok star celebrated her half-decade anniversary since coming out as trans, sharing in a Bluesky post that she “came out as trans five years ago today.”
Known for her spicy reads of right-wing and transphobic politicians and pundits, as well as her charisma on TikTok and similar platforms, Wilson has since become a figurehead of positivity for young trans people in the US and beyond.
Gaining notoriety for her fierce rebuttal of her estranged father, Elon Musk, in 2023 after he said she was “killed by the woke mind virus,” Wilson has since flourished into a popular influencer in the trans community and made her own name for herself.

The daughter of Canadian author, Justine Musk, Wilson has, on multiple occasions, said it is her mission to live as normal and as authentic a life as possible in spite of her chaotic upbringing.
According to the post, the influencer would have come out in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic at 16-years-old. She reportedly first told her aunt, saying over a text message: “Hey, I’m transgender, and my name is now Jenna. Don’t tell my Dad.”
In 2022, her mother recalled a conversation she had in a series of posts about Vivian’s childhood. 18 years old at the time, she told her mother that, despite her “weird childhood,” she couldn’t believe how “normal-seeming” she is.
“I’m very proud of you,” her mother said, to which she responded: “I’m proud of myself!”
After gaining a stronger online presence, Wilson began collaborating with fellow creators, including Hasan Piker, to promote positivity and calls to action in the community, as well as continuing to read right-wing media moguls to filth.
In October 2024, she roasted self-proclaimed misogynist, Andrew Tate, after he tried to take aim at her in a series of posts, saying that, unlike Tate, she has “a life rather than being on house arrest in Romania for s3x crimes.”
The self-professed “Queen of Threads” later told all in an exclusive interview with Teen Vogue, saying that, rather than being famous for her lineage, she is “famous for my lore.”
“I don’t know, I’m just writing my little Threads and my little Bluesky [posts], and sometimes I make little videos, and then they sometimes get views. I ratioed Mark Zuckerberg, though. That was the one time I felt like, I am the f**king queen!”
