Tom Brady has dominated the quarterback position in the NFL for over two decades. After seven Super Bowl rings to his name with the New England Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Brady forayed into the world of fashion. And this one time, the GOAT even asked for Twitter CEO Elon Musk’s help in promoting his Brady Brand clothing line.

Despite the divorce from the former fashion supermodel Gisele Bündchen, some of the Brazilian’s fashionable characteristics definitely rubbed off on Brady in their 13 years of marriage. And this had to be one of the pivotal reasons for TB12 to enter the fashion industry. And when his briefs and boxers marketing campaign backfired, Brady couldn’t help but ask Elon Musk for some tech support.

Tom Brady played a poker bluff on social media when he challenged his fans to put up forty thousand likes on one of the Brady Brand briefs’ Twitter promotion post. And if they did, he would pose in the briefs himself. The NFL world absolutely didn’t disappoint contrary to TB12’s expectations. And Brady wasn’t ready to go shirtless, even for his own brand’s underwear. That’s when the five-time Super Bowl MVP reached out in desperation to Elon Musk. Brady tweeted, “Hey man, how’s it going? Just checking back in here, how would one go about removing likes from a tweet?

This is not the only time Tom Brady asked for Elon Musk’s help

Tom Brady and his ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, made some heads turn in their spectacular red-carpet fashion statement at the 2018 Met Gala. And according to Gisele, Brady is more into clothing and apparel than the former Victoria’s Secret supermodel herself. And this was a motivating factor for the QB to launch his clothing brand, and he was also said to be involved in the designing process. However, things weren’t always this dapper for California Cool. Especially during his early years in the NFL.

Brady had also reached out to Elon Musk after the Tesla owner acquired Twitter this year. And the 15x Pro Bowler had a simple request. The athlete wanted to get his embarrassing photo from his NFL Combine thrown off the internet. Young Brady in oversized boxers doesn’t really relay the best message for his apparel and clothing line business.
