Claire Elsie Boucher aka Grimes was chosen to play a part in the game. However, the party was interrupted by her then-boyfriend Elon Musk. The latter entered the recording venue with a toy gun to ask the developers for a favor. The favor was for a cameo in the developing project. As you might have probably guessed, the company denied the request. Although a deal was made to please both the parties. 

The NPC compensation 

The makers, upon being subjected to an innocently threatening request by the billionaire, were in a tough spot. The conclusion brought to the situation was an NPC deal. CD Projekt Studio assured the SpaceX chief that an NPC resembling the looks of Elon Musk would be inserted in the game. 

This hilarious story is narrated in the latest book written by Walter Isaacson. The author addressing the Cyberpunk 2077 episode wrote, “When Grimes was doing the voice recordings for the cyborg pop star she played in the video game Cyberpunk 2077, he showed up at the studio wielding a two-hundred-year-old gun and insisted that they give him a cameo. “The studio guys were like sweating,” says Grimes in the passage. Musk then admits to the whole thing himself, saying he told CDPR staff he was “armed by not dangerous.”

Later, Musk had described the reason for being so reluctant on the cameo. According to him, the concepts that founded the narrative of Cyberpunk 2077 felt “too close to home”.
