Stage 1: Demand: Boosting up a career (part 3)
"Notionally a concept album about the goddess of climate crisis, the Canadian’s fifth album is actually a compellingly chaotic statement about her own private life".

The album had a very good start when it got released 22th Feb. Fans and influencers on social media loved it.
On 7th March 2020, it was on 3 Billboards charts.
Unfortunately 5 weeks later the album was gone from these lists.Apparently it didn't get the appreciation as expected.

The album ‘Miss Anthropocene’ was the last album that Grimes made for record label 4AD.

So after the ‘birth’ of her album, Grimes needed a new record label. A ‘boost’ is needed once again.
The ‘baby’ narrative gave her a positive boost, people were talking about her and the world just met ‘Grimes’.
Note: Grimes find the Rolling Stone pregnancy picture funny.

“Who is Grimes? Elon Musk’s Girlfriend Gives Birth to Baby"
“Elon Musk is a household name; his partner, Grimes, should be too. But after the couple welcomed their first baby together on May 4, 2020, many were still wondering: Who is Grimes, Elon Musk’s girlfriend?"

"The 32-year-old Canadian enigma has managed to toe the line between bonafide pop stardom and niche appeal for over a decade, so it’s a question she practically eludes. Nobody really knows Grimes.”

Stage 2: Resistance: Let people know what's going on.
In a podcast interview during the SpaceX Demo-2 launch on 27th May 2020, it became clear that Elon is not happy with the 'baby' situation.
Within minutes the ambiance went from being proud of the launch to a negative vibe.

Within minutes the ambiance went from being proud of the launch to a negative vibe.
If we look closer to his expression, you can see Elon is not happy when asking the 'baby' question.
Only by congratulating someone with their baby the vibe changed.
Why was the 'dad' not happy with his ‘baby’?

In normal cases, congratulating someone with a newborn gives a smile to peoples faces. Unless it is a simulation.
Also Jim Bridenstine facial expression changed.
Does he know the truth?

On 4th of May, the baby’s due date, Elon still tweeted through the day. When someone asked about the ‘baby’, Elon responded ‘A few hours away!’
So did he meant the baby will be born in a few hours? Or is Elon a few hours away from LA?

According to the flight schedule of May 2020, Elon didn’t fly once to LA, only between Hawthorne, San Jose, Austin etc. multiple times.
In previous and later months, he regularly flew to airports in LA.
So why didn’t he fly once to LA in that month?

On 4th of May, Elon did post 2 pictures with a baby. In the first picture, a tattoo filter was used, and it looked like a doll. Was Elon joking about his newborn baby?
Also in this picture, there are some ‘mistakes’.
Apparently a waiting room.Sitting on a much different chair that doesn’t fit the room. The 2nd C on his shirt has a different size. Shirt and the wall are focused, face and baby not. Different skintones.More like 2 photos became 1.

A few days later, Elon pointed out that “this does seem like a time for Dad jokes”.
Pointing out that him being a new Dad is a joke?

Maye Musk and Grimes also shares both baby pictures/video at the same time.
But apparently they don’t share the same baby!
Ears and hair are different.

Christiana took the photo of Elon and X, that Maye tweeted.
Still wondering why they didn’t post a picture of Elon, X and Grimes. If X was there, shouldn’t Grimes also be there?
It's not Grimes didn't want too, because Grimes did post on IG a photo of her and a baby.

“Even Elon Musk and Grimes can’t decide how to pronounce their baby’s name”

latimes.com/entertainment-…
“Appearing on Thursday’s podcast episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience,”new father Elon Musk broke down the perplexing name of his baby boy with Grimes, letter by letter, number by number and symbol by symbol.”
“I mean, it’s just ‘X’ — the letter X — and then the A-E is, like, pronounced ‘ash,’” the Tesla chief executive told Rogan, who couldn’t help but laugh. “And then ‘A-12' is my contribution ... Archangel 12, the precursor to the SR-71 — coolest plane ever.”
“Sounds easy enough,right?Wrong. ...,Grimes offered a different interpretation:“It’s just X, like the letter X,” the ... musician replied to a curious commenter on Instagram,echoing her tech mogul boyfriend’s explanation at first.“Then A.I. like how you said the letter A then I.”
Apparently, Elon and Grimes don’t talk to each other in person.
When Grimes explained the baby name on Twitter, she made a mistake regarding 'their' favorite aircraft.
Elon corrected her on Twitter. And she responded. If they were living together, why react via Twitter?

"I don't want to say the gender of the baby … because I feel like their privacy should be protected. I don't think they can consent to being famous or being in public," said the singer.
"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."

Also about the decision to get pregnant, the 'parents' are not on the same page.
As Grimes stated in an interview: “It was really profound to me when I decided I was going to do it, to actually go through the act of, like, y’know, unprotected sex.”

While it is a ‘profound decision’ of Grimes.
Elon tweeted a different scenario in a meme.
Did he tweet it to show people, it is indeed a joke and that he was never part of the ‘pregnancy’ narrative in the first place.

Did the joke/simulation became 'reality' to others due to pushing this narrative by media/social media?
It would explain his reaction on the podcast interview during SpaceX Demo-2 launch.

In contrast to the previous ‘sensational’ news, this news didn’t got fueled by the media. Apparently it isn’t sensational enough. Or didn’t they want to end the narrative?
“It’s not that the media sets out to be sensationalist; its business model leads it in that direction. Charges of bias don’t make the bias real; it often lies in the eye of the beholder.”

Grimes is sharing a video via IG story in May 2020 what appears to look like Elon and the baby.
What’s weird about this video is that the ‘dad’ is even not looking in the camera.
Also the baby is not making any sounds.

The video looked staged. Is it to show fans that they are still ‘together’?
As we know Elon didn’t fly that month once to LA.
Could they use deepfake to make this video to keep the simulation going?

Maye shares also a video in June, what definitely looks like a deepfake video.
If you look at ‘Elons’ face, the eyes are closed, the voice sounds robotic and the hairline looks different than normal.

End May 2020: During the Demo-2 launch of SpaceX, Grimes let fans believe she was at the launch site.
This only raises more questions.
Why would you travel with a 3 week old baby. And why travel 3 weeks after surgery, while recovery takes 6 weeks?

Social media starts to spread this too for an unknown reason.

He made a video of his conversation with Elon, but still no video footage of Grimes.

A lie generates a story from the imagination, more cognitive resources are used to create a believable story.
A lie get a more concrete description than abstract evaluation or judgement.

Also on the family pictures at the launch site on both days, there is no sign of Grimes. She even wasn’t mentioned by any of the Musk family either.
If she was the girlfriend of Elon and the mother of his child, wouldn’t she be in pictures with the rest of the family?

Maye shared a video of Elon jumping. In this video a lady with the foot tattoo caught attention and people believe it is Grimes.
Checking the photos of the launch, all the people in the video are not seated in that spot in the photos.
Video manipulation?

As you watch closely, the lady doesn’t look at Elon, but to someone else next to the camera waiting for instructions 'to unveil her tattoo' at the scene.
There is no hand tattoo and not wearing shoes, so she looks smaller. She is also not very enthusiastic about Elons happiness.

Elon came in the room, when Grimes was having a Q&A with Ashnikko.
It was on the same day, Elon was irritated and tweeting about the circulation of the photo bomb of him and Ghislaine.

Elons face was blurry and it looked artificial. The logo on his t-shirt wasn’t on the same place all the time, it even appeared under his armpit. His neck looked weird from time to time. Could this be another video manipulation?

All that was written was common/old news. The article was pretty long for an interview of an hour.

Strangely it was updated recently on 25th April 2021. It must have been very important to change it.

Also he stated that he will rent a place somewhere if his kids are there. Most of the time it is just him.

Now Banks tries to get out of this subpoena and points to Grimes. This will even give Grimes more power.
It will be easy to lie when the media will support you.
Recently even Forbes showed their bias for Grimes regarding the SNL appearances.
The lawsuit is postponed until 2022.

There is a scene in the Matrix about a spoon.
screenrant.com/matrix-movie-n…
“The boy then says “Do not try and bend the spoon, that’s impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth… there is no spoon. Then you’ll see that it is not the spoon that bends, it is only yourself.” Neo then attempts to bend the spoon, with momentary success.”
"At the surface of things, the boy is simply trying to remind Neo that despite what he sees and feels, his reality is merely a digital counterfeit simulation based on the real world."
Elon is familiar using Matrix memes or sentences.
“As we come to learn in the film, Neo, is the character that learns about the virtual world that the people perceive to be the actual reality — it’s all a lie — an artificial world created by the machines."
“As we come to learn in the film, Neo, is the character that learns about the virtual world that the people perceive to be the actual reality — it’s all a lie — an artificial world created by the machines."
“Neo becomes aware of his fake reality and chooses to unplug from the virtual world created by the machines — unplug from the Matrix.”

Elon Musk announced the strange name on 4th May 2020. Yes, on Star Wars day.
But the ‘parents’ weren’t on the same page regarding explaining the name, Elon even corrected Grimes on Twitter. Apparently they were not in the same area.

When the name was announced, some people ran it through Google Translate.
The name “X Æ A-12” meant ‘SCAM-12’ in Vietnamese.
Did Elon tried to say the baby narrative was a scam?

“Elon Musk momentarily forgot his son's name during an interview, telling the press that it 'sounds like a password'.”
“During the press conference, one interviewer asks Musk, who looks very confused: 'how is X Æ A-12?'

“He joked about his name choice for X AE A-XII, his and Grimes' 1-year-old son, during his monologue.”
"It's pronounced: Cat running across the keyboard," he said.”

Also in this article:
“Musk and Grimes welcomed X AE A-XII (nicknamed "Little X"), ...
The baby's first name is X, middle name is AE A-XII, and surname is Musk, according to the birth certificate obtained by TMZ.”
But The Blast had already obtained it earlier.

But The Blast had already obtained it earlier.
The Blast made an article about the birth certificate end of May 2020, but with other another date and number at the bottom.
The date of The Blast certificate is 22nd May, TMZ is 8th June.
What’s strange is that the number on the bottom was higher on The Blast certificate.

How is that possible?
And why are there 2 certificates ‘leaked’?
Do they just want you to believe the narrative so badly?

“In the birth certificate, the baby’s name is officially X AE A-XII Musk, confirming what Grimes said the couple changed the name too late last week .”
The A12 got replaced by AII (roman numerals) also according to Grimes via an IG post on 25th May 2020.

The name was already changed on 6th May 2020 on the certificate, signed by the ‘parents’.
Elon mentioned the kids ‘old’ name A12 in Joe Rogan’s podcast on 7th May and didn’t mentioned the change.
Why didn't he mentioned it?

According to birth certificates of other celebrities obtained (again) by the Blast and TMZ, there is only 1 signature.
The space for the signature is only suited for 1.
Why are there 2 signatures on the two certificates for baby X?

Why did The Blast and TMZ highlighted this news after Grimes anounced it, while they obtained the 2 different 'leaked' documents?
Is it to fit the narrative that Elon signed this document?
Even if there is no record of him flying to LA once in May 2020.

What is Media Manipulation?--A Definition and Explanation

“In the old days, we only had a few threats to fear when it came to media manipulation: the government propagandist and the hustling publicist.”
“They were serious threats, but vigilance worked as a clear and simple defense. They were the exceptions rather than the rule”

“—they exploited the fact that the media was trusted and reliable. Today, with our blog and web driven media cycle, nothing can escape exaggeration, distortion, fabrication and simplification.”

Indeed, separately.
While Grimes tries to hide the face from the beginning, Elon isn’t doing that at all.
Are the 'parents' not on the same page again?

In March 2020 Elon posted a picture of the three of them.
If you want to post a happy family moment, why wouldn’t you smile?
What’s with the flowers? Try to cover up?

Elon looks like he was added in the photo. A part of the line of the background is missing and he got an extra line around him. Also 2 colors of black t-shirt. One is real, other is added later. Grimes is wearing same outfit/hairstyle as in Dec2020. Was her part been taken then?
While Grimes has an reflection of a satellite. This is near the road at SpaceX. Seeing the palm tree behind Elon, it looks like this picture is made outside SpaceX , not inside.
Why this background, when you can choose a much better view of SpaceX there? Wasn’t she allowed in?

May 2021: “Elon Musk carries baby son ‘X Æ A-12’ as billionaire dad leaves Miami hotel with Grimes ahead of SNL appearance”
the-sun.com/news/2818860/e…
the-sun.com/news/2818860/e…
In the photos in Miami, Elon carries the baby In 3 photos. In photo 1 and 2, one hand has a different skin tone and red spots, while in the photo where he walks alone his hands has no spots/other tone. In the last photo he even hands over the baby to another women in a white car.
The photo where he hands over the baby, have some mistakes. It is possible to focus on the background. But is it possible to have focus above and lower the blurry arm of the man who holds the door open? Or did 2 photos became 1. Also it looks like 'X' has almost a square head.
The photos tell a strange story. They were walking out of a hotel without a baby. And then suddenly he holds the baby, while Grimes is holding a cactus (?).
There is also no interaction between Elon and Grimes, she doesn’t walk besides him, but follows him.

It looks like the body guard should have bump into Grimes according their feet on the floor. And Elon btw too, he almost bumped into a guy, if the position of his feet are correct. We can see the back of one shoe.
In one photo he hands over the baby to another women in a white car. While, according to the pictures, Elon and Grimes stepped into a black Tesla. So baby X isn’t allowed to ride along with his so-called 'parents'?
Also in one photo Grimes is going to open the door herself, while in the other photo someone holds the door open for her. The background is the same, so it is the same situation. Where did this guy come from? Did she posed multiple times?
“Behind the scenes of Elon hosting SNL”
Jason Calacanis, Elon’s friends, goes behind the scenes of Elon’s SNL appearance.
In this podcast he tells about travelling from Austin, to Miami, to New York and why he was behind the scenes at SNL with Elon.

And again, photo without and then with a baby. Noticed that there is no interaction between them and there are no photos of Grimes holding the baby, not in Miami, not in New York.
Grimes probably prefer to hold a cactus or a cap (?).
The photos have an extremely poor quality.

There are weird shadow in these photos. Different color of shadows on his shirt in the 1st photo.
In the 2nd there is shadow under his left arm, but not under his right arm. Also his hand and one baby’s leg have more shadow than the baby’s body.

In this photo you can see the baby’s ear and the shadow on Elon’s face, light from front, but seeing the shadow under Elon’s arm, there is also light from above. The guard only have shadow under his arm, it has great lines and even continued when there is no fabric. Was it added?
Story with photos. It looked more that Grimes already standing there. No walking attempt to follow.
Then he arrives at the car with the baby. The body guard is closing the door when Elon steps in.
Is the baby still on his arm? Grimes is also trying to step in at the same side?

He also tells that Elon wanted to be in every skit, and it's okay to give up his whole week (3-8 May), while being there.
When he talked about the Wario skit, he didn’t mentioned Grimes or celebrating the upcoming birthday of Baby X in that same week.

In the Breakfast Club show, Pete Davidson was asked who were present at the dinner with Elon.
According to Pete: Lauren, Chris, Kenan, Chloe, Ego, Jost. The strange thing is he didn’t mentioned Grimes.
But at least Lauren paid because it's a work dinner.

According to Daily Mail, Grimes was present and came together with Elon. They came out of the car together. So why wasn’t she mentioned? And if she was allowed, why wasn’t Jason?
Daily Mail had photos of other members of SNL who attended this dinner.

Seeing Elon and Grimes in public in video footage is very rare. So, you surely want to see how happy the couple is.
She did had a hand tattoo, but you couldn’t see it due to the poor quality of the images while it only affected the tattoo. It could be drawn as well.

There was also a poor quality video.
The ‘couple’ didn’t walked romantically and soon she was pushed aside by fans.
Further you can see her pulling a guy instead of his security escorting her to the entrance, to get her to safety.
Why wasn’t she part of his security bubble?

Also the woman in the video, doesn't look like Grimes. Also the hand tattoo isn't visible in the video.
Who's this woman?
Who's this woman?
While media is over the place when Elon steps out or is going out for dinner with friends or his 5 sons. It's good to see on video how people interact in real life.
But there's no video footage of Grimes or X joining them for dinner.
Why is that?

This woman proves how easy it is, to video bomb Elon Musk when he went out to diner with his sons at the Boa Steakhouse in 2020
She joins them by walking to the restaurant, stopped and left the scene just before Elon and his sons enter the restaurant.

If I was a ‘journalist’, I could simulate a beautiful story about these two ‘lovebirds’.
It looks like Grimes tried to do the same thing at the SNL Afterparty in May 2021.

In this video it is shown that they left the afterparty.Grimes taps the shoulder of a guy, after 6s speeds up and hopped into the car.
Why isn't she walking with Elon to the car?
When Elon approach the car, he looks like he isn't amused by this situation.

As soon as the last body guard steps in, he starts a discussion with Grimes.
Why would the guard do this?
If we look at the body language of Grimes, she looks manipulative and aggressive. Her arm blocks Elon, she isn’t seated on her side.
Was she even invited to ride along?

The parts of the skit can be recorded separately, there is not one part with them together in one take. Did Elon knew she was in that skit?
According to Grimes, SNL was so kind to letting her sneak in as Princess Peach.
Note: talks about Grimes in the 3rd person regarding fans

“C insists Grimes is an experiment.“For me, it’s almost like a sociological exercise in the nature of celebrity.I just watch what happens to the Grimes character. It’s pretty important for my own mental health.I definitely have to abstract myself from my persona.”-CR Fashionbook
According to the IG post of Grimes, she has had a panic attack.
Was it because she couldn't abstract herself from her Grimes character?
