Grimes/Claire Boucher thread

It’s incredibly tone deaf however you try to rationalize it.

Yeah I doubt Grimes truly cares about all that theory that has been discussed in this thread. What people are mad about is how she turns that important discussion into an aesthetic meant to look cool or hip.

Realiti (demo) just came on and it made me very sad how much I (still) love it.

Yea she’s the one who “turned” this conversation that way

I find it's easier to enjoy more music and artists if you don't follow them on social media.

I don’t really use social media often and it’s hard not to follow her techno-fascist opinions when the news cycle has a hard-on for everything musk-related.

I for one got more entertainment from this TikTok than from her music.

Anything that creates negative perceptions about musk and herself nowadays is fine by me too. Fuck them both.

"shinigami eyes" is the lead single and confirmed to be out soon

no look for other trending grimes posts

I know. Was a joke.

I've actually been enjoying the new Fox talent show Alter/Ego where Grimes is one of the judges along with Will.I.Am, Alanis Morrisette, and Nick Lachey. They're a super awkward panel with no chemistry between them and will probably end up getting the show cancelled, but the idea of average folks designing rock star holograms that mimic their moves while they sing backstage is a good one I think. The loser has to come out onstage and perform as themselves at the end and invariably, they're better performers as themselves than they were as holograms, but they had lacked the confidence to perform onstage or had been told that they didn't have the right look to be a singer or whatever, so you get their emotional back story and redemption through the show. I mean, it's shlock, but somehow compelling to watch. And now it's kind of funny that they picked Grimes as a judge for her "futurist" cred for an audience who likely only knows her as Elon's now ex-girlfriend. She's got a quiet mumbley voice, big metal claws on her fingers and weird mannerisms like hugging her knees up by her face when she talks. I'm guessing the producers are probably sweating this break-up pretty hard.

Honestly wasn't sure if that last post was legit or some kind of meta-parody, but nope, it's a real show.

she split with Elon? is nothing sacred?

“I think having a baby was a big kind of like rebirth for me, like artistically. Like, it just like, I don’t know,” she told Vogue while getting ready for the Met Gala.

"Like, it just like, I don't know" is a fitting epitaph for their relationship.

goddamn it, they were perfect together. if grimes and elon can't make it work, what hope do we all have? at least we'll get to watch T1000 grow up and remember what we had these 3 years.

looking forward to an endless string of Grimes gholas that Elon must eventually murder once they turn on him

one of those breakups where you lose 99.9999% of your net worth

Who could see that coming?

Maybe now her artistic cred will come back

At least they gave us space travel

Good Morning, “Grimes dating Elon Musk” was a 3 year sociological study conducted by Harvard University. We are now complete with our study. Thank you for your time.

i can only imagine what a grimes breakup album will sound like at this point.

Here's a promo clip for Alter Ego with Grimes:

it's hard to think of a semi-famous musician less suited to tv hosting than her

think about poor little CTL.ALT.DEL, barely a robolad, future is ruined

saw someone on reddit goofing on the couple by referring to their child as "syntax error" — sadlolfacepalm

We’ll always have X AE A-12.

Saw 5 mins of Alter Ego. I think Elon might have been the one to end the relationship after catching a preview of it.

thought this was the onion at first

Even the picture looks exactly like the kind of photoshopped picture the onion world make

would make

the pic with the full length dune-inspired bodysuit is really something

i'm glad she's managing to have fun with paparazzi harassing her i guess

Arghh why is she so fucking lame. She used to be one of the coolest artists of her generation. Now she just makes me sad.

Yeah this looks like a photoshoot and she might be trolling but that doesn’t make it cool, tbh it makes it more lame.

idk about her ever being 'cool', she was only ever endearingly uncool (like look at those music videos lol they're so goofy) & then it became very unendearing very quickly when she made her heel turn

she likes dark souls which is good
