The 31-year-old Canadian singer and her Tech mogul hubby, Elon Musk who are expecting their first child were loud and clear to the world that the world doesn’t need to know the gender of their unborn baby.
I don’t want to say the gender of the baby… because I feel like their privacy should be protected. And I don’t want to gender them in case that’s not how they feel in their life. I don’t know, I just feel like it doesn’t need to be known. They may decide their fate and identity. I have a name for the baby, but I don’t want to say what it is because everyone I’ve told it hates it, and everyone’s gonna make fun of it. But it is, in fact, a genius name and people just don’t appreciate it yet because it’s too avant-garde.”

Reacting to this, NME’s Rhian Daly wrote: “Grimes proves herself once again to be the master of her own destiny, refusing to let any outside forces steer her from the course she’s chosen for herself, even if the album itself does deviate from the expected script. It’s a record stuffed with imagination and packed with beauty. It’s also a fitting next step for an artist who’s built her reputation as someone who refuses to keep in step with the rest of the world.”
