Tech entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Saturday, May 8, US time, revealed that he has Asperger's syndrome.
He says he is "the first person with Asperger's" to host the comedy show, with the audience responding with loud cheers, the BBC reported.
The news site quoted Musk in his opening monologue: "I don't always have a lot of intonation or variation in how I speak... which I'm told makes for great comedy."
"I'm actually making history tonight as the first person with Asperger's to host SNL." Asperger's is sometimes referred to as high-functioning autism.
