Fans of Elon Musk and Grimes Are Worried Their Relationship Has Broken Art and Capitalism

He wants to build a colony on Mars, she writes songs from the perspective of a vampire Al Pacino, and together, Elon Musk and Grimes make 2018's weirdest new couple. But instead of one of those love stories where the two come from opposite sides of the tracks or their families hate each other, this is a match where, honestly, no one is quite sure how one even knew the other one existed. Page Six, which first reported on the coupling of Grusk (or Mimes, take your pick) confirms this: Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, only became aware of Grimes, aka Canadian musician and producer Claire Boucher, about a month ago, when he wanted to tweet an obscure pun about an artificial-intelligence thought experiment ("Rococo Basilisk") that he discovered she had already made in a 2015 music video. Presumably this goes one of two ways: Either Grusk winds up just another footnote on both of their Wikipedia pages or their Met Ball appearance this week (complete with Tesla choker) will be remembered as the beginning of the greatest love story ever told. To find out, I consulted the experts: their online fans.
