Grimes has announced that she is pregnant with her first child via her social media.
Pregnancy Confirmed!
The singer-songwriter’s first took to Instagram where she has posted a topless image of herself.
The photo taken by Eli Russell Linnetz, shows her with an image of a baby in her stomach.
At first her fans were not sure whether she’s pregnant or just an artistic choice. Grimes is known for her quirky aesthetic after all.
What added to the confusion was that 31-year-old musician posted the photo without a caption, though she later appeared to confirm her pregnancy in the comments of the post.
Censoring Issue
In response to a comment about not censoring her nipples in the photo, which has since been taken down from her Instagram, Grimes replied, “I thought about censoring them for a hot minute haha (this may get taken down anyway) but the photo is so much less feral without the nipples.
Plus being knocked up is a very feral & war-like state of being. Might as well be what it is.”
“Plus most of my friends told me not to post them so then I was afflicted with reverse psychology,” Grimes continued.
She concluded with “Interrogated my shame on it and decided it was sum weird internalized self hatred to feel uncomfortable about my body. Hope ur having a nice day!”
After the Instagram took her photo down because of its nudity policy, Grimes re-posted it, censored this time.
“Censored for insta haha – almost got away w it,” she captioned the pic.
Grimes is currently in a relationship with billionaire Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who she began dating back in 2018.
The couple went public together for the first time when they appeared at debut at the 2018 Met Gala, where they posed for photos together.
