It looks like $20 million fines from the SEC and a demotion from Tesla chairman to CEO haven’t had had much effect on weed-smoking billionaire wild man Elon Musk. He may be branching out into the liquor biz with a trademark for his own “Teslaquila.”

That’s just what it sounds like: tequila—or as the patent says, “distilled agave liquor”—with the Tesla logo slapped on the bottle. See above.

If true, this means die-hard Tesla customers could one day get drunk as hell on Teslaquila then speed down the Interstate in a self-driving Tesla roadster torching other cars with a Tesla flamethrower. 

The guy who incurred those serious SEC penalties after making lame 420 weed jokes about Tesla stock prices probably has this exact scenario in mind.

Here are more details from CNBC: 

Teslaquila first appeared as part of an April Fool’s prank in which Musk said on Twitter that his electric car company was going bankrupt and that he had been found “passed out against a Tesla Model 3, surrounded by ‘Teslaquila’ bottles.”

A few days later, he posted a photo on Instagram of a tequila bottle with a Teslaquila label plastered on it.

Representatives for Tesla did not immediately respond to CNBC’s request for comment.

Those company reps were probably too busy sighing and phoning co-workers saying, “yeah, he’s at it again.”

Elon Musk has a history of making jokes into reality. He said he’d blast a Tesla into space. He did it. He made his own damn flamethrowers for fun, apparently. Then there’s the Boring Co., which he claims came about after he got annoyed with LA traffic and wished he could just bore a big tunnel to wherever he wanted to go.

For now, it’s just a trademark and an image on Twitter. Hell, Musk might have done all these things after a few shots of tequila. 

If Teslaquila is real, though, Musk’s love for cannabis might mean a follow-up of cannabis-infused tequila. Hopefully.

Not to encourage him too much, but it’s worth pointing out that if he did create a 420-themed spirit after Teslaquila hit the market, he would definitely be in the running for the crown of “America’s Most Beloved Billionaire.”

Ahead of the release of Creed II, the latest Rocky installment’s trailer and posters have made one thing abundantly clear about Michael B. Jordan’s Adonis Creed: He’s a muscle-bound monster. 

Like Josh Brolin of Deadpool 2 and Rob McElhenney of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the movie star enlisted the expertise of a celebrity trainer to get in power-punching shape. 

Men’s Health spoke with Corey Calliet, the same trainer who helped Jordan get superhero-sized play Killmonger in Black Panther.   

“We time our projects, so we used Killmonger to get ready for Creed II,” Calliet told MensHealth.com. “I bulked him up on Killmonger, and then used that bulk to shred him down for Creed II.”

Jordan’s cut got him down to 190 bulging pounds of what looks like pure muscle. It was no easy feat. 

“My goal with [Jordan] is to always look better than the last time he was on-[screen],” Calliet said. “We always go until we can’t go anymore.”

Because Jordan had already learned to box for 2015’s Creed, preparation for the sequel was less about working on fundamentals and more focused getting his body as chiseled as possible. 

“We knew how to box already, we knew how that felt,” said Calliet. “This was about actually getting him to look better than the last time.”

“We would actually do those exercises at home, in the gym, wherever,” Calliet added. “To look a certain kind of way, you’ve got to bring the intensity up.”

There’s a lot more to Nadia Mejia than her jaw-dropping looks. 

The Diamond Bar, California-raised stunner starred in her first national modeling campaign when she was just 17 after being scouted at the U.S. Open of Surfing. Three years later, she was crowned Miss California USA 2016 and ascended to the top 5 in Miss USA 2016. 

Mejia’s pageantry success led to more modeling opportunities with fashion brands  Skechers and Guess, the latter of which she describes as her “dream brand.”

But what makes Mejia a true multihyphenate is that she’s also an up-and-coming musician. She undoubtedly inherited a voice from her father, “Rico Suave” singer Gerardo Mejia. 

See why her self-released debut single, “Walk on Water,” amassed over 600,000 views less than two months: 

Those accolades are all impressive, but you won’t find Mejia’s proudest accomplishment on her résumé. 

“Truthfully, using my social media following for good and inspiring young woman today to love the skin their in is my biggest achievement and the most rewarding,” she tells Maxim.  

Read on to find out what makes Nadia tick.  

How can a man catch your attention?

By being funny and authentic. If he has an ego, he needs to GO.

What’s the worst pick-up line you’ve ever heard?

I’ve heard so many bad lines, I can’t pinpoint just one. But I do have so many men who follow me that have a foot fetish. They don’t ask for nudes. They ask for pictures of my long toes.

Yikes. How do you let a man know you’re interested?

It is extremely obvious whether or not I’m into you. I just get my flirt on—a little arm touching and smirks are my give away.

Good to know. What’s your ideal date?

Well, since fall is just around the corner, I would love to go on a beautiful evening hike and have a picnic with some pumpkin flavored goodies, good music and cuddling.

How festive! What about a man turns you on the most?

HUMILITY! I love a man whose career success doesn’t define him as a person. So many people in LA have the tendency to brag, and it’s my biggest pet peeve.

When do you feel sexiest?

I feel sexiest when I’m focusing my energy on my career and my health and seeing all of my hard work pay off. And lipstick… lipstick always makes me feel sexy.

How do you snap the perfect selfie?

It’s all about lighting and angles. Window light is the go to. A little cleavage and pouty lips with a slight eyebrow raise are usually my photos with the most likes. But don’t show too much cleavage! Then it becomes trashy over sassy.

We couldn’t agree more. What’s your favorite thing to do in the bedroom?

My dad’s very active on social media. He’s probably reading this. I guess my husband will have to find out (I know my pops is proud of this answer.)

He should be. What should a man never do in the bedroom?

Talk about my dad.

Ha! Any sexy fantasies?

I want to join the Mile High Club one day.

Lastly, what’s your guiltiest pleasure?

Anything dark chocolate.

It’s a general law of the universe that you only run into people you know when you’re looking, well, less than your best. Seriously—what’s up with that? Murphy’s law I suppose. Through unfortunate personal experience, I’ve learned that this rings even truer in airports. You are all-but-guaranteed to run into someone you know while slumming it through LAX. For this reason, I’ve made it a rule to always look somewhat presentable while traveling.

Now for most of us, a comfortable yet polished travel look includes some combination of leggings, denim, or loose trousers, but today I bring you an even chicer option. While scrolling through Instagram last night, I came across the coziest outfit that also happens to be ultra-chic on Camila Morrone‘s account (Side note: Do we think Leo took this photo? He is the greatest Instagram boyfriend ever, after all). Her dreamy cashmere matching set would make an ideal travel outfit because it’s not only polished but also something you would gladly spend hours wearing. She appears to be wearing hers for a desert morning, but I have a feeling this is something she’ll be wearing on an airplane sometime soon as well.

Keep scrolling to see this gem of an outfit for yourself and shop the matching sets we would be happy to wear for days on end.  

Now that your travel outfit is covered, how about some carry-on packing tips?
