      If you're in the mood for more gossip  about Grimes, here's the latest.

      Buzzfeed has reported that her son, X Æ A-12 Musk, doesn't refer to her "mom" or "mother".

      No, the 16-month-old with the unusual name prefers referring to her as "Claire".

      That's Grimes's given name and how she's known by many of her old friends and classmates in Vancouver, where she grew up.

      She revealed this in a Vogue video about her choice of clothing at the recent Met Gala, which generated a bunch of media coverage due to a sword that she brought to the event. 

      Grimes conceded that she doesn't identify with the word "mother". And apparently her son has picked up on this.

      As for the boy's name, it's pronounced "Ex Ash A Twelve". A-12 was a Lockheed high-altitude aircraft that was put out of service in 1968.
