As the corona continues to claim victims and the whole world is busy chasing the vaccine that is supposed to save it, some choose to declare its infection with the virus as a "fun experience."
After her partner and father-in-law, billionaire Alon Musk, was announced over the weekend as the richest man in the world with an estimated fortune of $ 188.5 billion (ousting first-place Amazon founder Jeff Bezos) - it was the turn of Canadian singer Grimes (32) to make headlines in her own right. With a scandalous doubtful statement hallucinatory.
Grimes (born Claire Alice Butcher) shared her 1.6 million followers on Instagram last Friday because she was infected with Corona: "I finally contracted Cubid, but oddly enough I enjoy the hallucinations of Dayquil (an American painkiller and antipyretic)."
Last November, Musk also tweeted that he was probably infected with corona himself and that he was experiencing symptoms of a mild cold.
This is not the first time Grimes has starred in headlines under bizarre circumstances.
Last May she and Musk gave birth to their first son and chose to give the unusual name X Æ A-12 (later changed to Æ A-Xii).
Today, the eight-month-old baby is affectionately known as x.
Grimes revealed in an interview with the New York Times last October that now her name is c (as a reference, she says, to the speed of light).
She further revealed that already at the age of five months she watched with her son the movie "Apocalypse Now" and that he is a fan of radical art.
