Grimes says she’s “way less gay” after having three kids with Elon Musk

Grimes, the millennial pop star and baby mama to three of anti-woke Elon Musk’s kids, surprised her 1.3 million followers on X with news that she’s “way less gay” after her three pregnancies.

“I became way less gay after I was pregnant, my ability to focus on reading and writing went way up, as did my general creativity, but my ability to focus on technical things went *way* down. Is this all explained by hormones?” she asked her fans.

“Just less interested in dating girls,” Grimes replied.

How gay the Canadian musician, singer and songwriter was to begin with is unclear — she’s never explained her sexuality definitely — although she’s been more outspoken about her gender.

“I vibe in a gender-neutral space so I’m kinda impartial to pronouns” she said in 2018. She’s also called herself “female-ish”.

Rumors swirled in 2022 that she was dating trans whistleblower Chelsea Manning after one of a number of break-ups with Musk.

But the sudden admission that Grimes is less gay due to three pregnancies with Musk, when fans didn’t know she was more gay to begin with, threw her followers for a loop and opened the door to bashing her Trump-stanning baby daddy.

“I think that’s just from being in a heterosexual relationship with a bigot bae,” one fan posted.

Grimes piled on, replying, “I feel like that shud make me more gay tho.”

The one-time couple started dating in 2018 and had three kids — X Æ A-Xii, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, and Tau Techno Mechanicus — over the course of their on-again, off-again relationship. In court filings for parental rights last October, Grimes alleged she has no access to her children.

Musk has 12 kids with three different mothers, including 20-year-old Vivian Jenna Wilson, who is transgender and estranged from her billionaire dad. Wilson filed court papers in 2022 to legally change her gender and her last name because, in her words, she no longer wished “to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.”

Since then, Musk has ramped up his attacks on the transgender community, posting on X last year that he would be “actively lobbying to criminalize” gender-affirming care for trans youth.

Months earlier, X revoked a policy protecting transgender people from deliberate misgendering and deadnaming. Musk owner said that the terms “cis” and “cisgender” would be considered “slurs” on his platform.

In August, Grimes told Wired  that Musk’s transphobia stems from his concerns over “fertility issues” caused by gender-affirming medications.
