Amber Heard Spent Two Months Designing Overwatch Mercy Cosplay For Ex Elon Musk
Elon Musk stands next to a dating sim version of Mercy from Overwatch.
Writer Walter Isaacson spent two years following Twitter overlord Elon Musk as he worked on his biography Elon Musk, which released September 12. That thorough work paid off—readers can sleep easy knowing that one of the richest men in the world might be into Overwatch roleplay.
Actress Amber Heard, who dated known gamer Musk through 2016, and then on-and-off in 2017, looked like popular support hero Mercy to him, Isaacson writes. While pretty much every Overwatch character is featured in tons of lovingly made porn online, Mercy is particularly popular, especially in a subsect of the BDSM community (“healsluts”) that feels erotic pleasure from healing in-game.
I guess I could be called a geek for someone who can also be called a hot chick,” Heard told Isaacson.
But sexy geekery is tragically a poor glue. Heard and Musk’s relationship came apart soon after that, in part because of a taste for theatrics and upheaval Isaacson ascribes to both parties.
“Elon loves fire,” Heard told Isaacson, “and sometimes it burns him.”
