Actress Alyssa Milano is embroiled in another controversy after taking to Twitter to reveal she's sold her Tesla in protest at Elon Musk's purchase of the firm.
Seemingly oblivious to the irony of how she announced the news, the motormouth former Charmed star, 49, wrote: 'I gave back my Tesla. I bought the Volkswagen ev.'
'I'm not sure how advertisers can buy space on Twitter. Publicly traded company's products being pushed in alignment with hate and white supremacy doesn't seem to be a winning business model,' she added.
Over the weekend numerous Twitter users mocked her purchase of a Volkswagen by pointing out the historical association between the auto company and Nazi Germany.
VW was established as a German state-owned automobile company in 1937, while the country was under the leadership of Hitler's Nazi Party.
