American film executive David Geffen has found himself in hot water after posting a "tone-deaf" Instagram post amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The 77-year-old billionaire, who is worth an eye-watering $US7.5 billion and is the richest man in showbiz, uploaded a picture on social media of his $US590 million superyacht, revealing
he was "isolated in the Grenadines".
"Sunset last night … isolated in the Grenadines avoiding the virus. I'm hoping everybody is saying safe."
The photo, a glory shot of his yacht at sunset, was met with a wave of backlash, with his name trending on Twitter for all the wrong reasons. One user declared Geffen was the "most tone-deaf rich person in the world".
