Elon Musk revealed to Saturday Night Live viewers that he has Asperger's syndrome during his stint hosting the iconic show.
The SpaceX founder proudly made the revelation during his opening monologue on the legendary sketch show.
"I'm actually making history tonight as the first person with Asperger's to host SNL," the billionaire said, as the audience started to applaud and cheer.
Musk then quipped: "Or, at least, the first to admit it."

Per Healthline, Asperger's is a form of autism that currently falls under the umbrella diagnosis of the autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
It is considered to be a high-functioning form of autism, and can be characterized by an above-average intelligence, a first-person focus, along with various other emotional and behavioral symptoms.
The symptoms of Asperger's will affect people differently from person to person.
After making the honest revelation on the show, viewers took to Twitter to praise the guest host.
"Elon Musk just crushing. And admitting proudly he has Aspergers. Good on you Elon," one viewer wrote.
A second added: "The announcement by Elon Musk saying that he has Aspergers Syndrome is such a great influence for me. If he didn’t have this gift he would not be where he is today. The man is a genius!"
And a third viewer tweeted: "As a fellow Aspie, the fact that Elon Musk said he has Aspergers while hosting SNL is huge and such a powerful moment."
However, per Forbes, Musk isn't actually the first person with Asperger's to host Saturday Night Live.
Former SNL cast member Dan Aykroyd hosted the show back in 2003, and has previously opened up about his own experiences with Asperger's to The Guardian in 2014.
Aykroyd admitted that his "very mild Asperger’s" has helped him creatively, saying: "I sometimes hear a voice and think: 'That could be a character I could do.'
"Of course there are many different grades, right up to the autism spectrum, and I am nowhere near that. But I sympathize with children who have it."
