Grimes has been speaking about her previous relationship with Elon Musk recently, and now it’s been reported that the billionaire gave Grimes a “trivia test” on Lord of the Rings when they first started dating. It’s one of the revelations to come from the upcoming biography Elon Musk by Walter Isaacson. The book, due to be released on 11 September, looks back at the early days of the pair’s relationship when they first met in 2018. Musk is the father of the singer’s three-year-old son X Æ A-XII and one-year-old daughter Exa Dark Sideræl also known as "Y". Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The pair first met after interacting on Twitter and later appeared together at the Met Gala that same year. Isaacson shared an extract from the book which claims that Musk invited Grimes to Fremont, California, to visit his Tesla factory for “his idea of a good date”. Grimes told the author of the date: “We just walked the floor all night, and I watched him try to fix things.” Then, according to Isaacson’s account, while driving Grimes to a restaurant the following night, Musk showed the singer how fast his car accelerated and then took his hands off the wheel, covered his eyes and let Autopilot control the car. “I was like, oh s***, this guy is f***ing crazy,” Grimes told Isaacson. “The car was signalling and changing lanes by itself. It felt like a scene out of a Marvel movie.” When they arrived at the restaurant, Grimes compared Musk’s powers to those of Gandalf, which prompted the Tesla CEO to give the “Oblivion” singer a trivia test on The Lord of the Rings. “He wanted to see whether she was truly a faithful fan. She passed,” wrote Isaacson. Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.

"There's something that I've been planning for a really, really, really ridiculously, embarrassingly long time, and instead of telling you about it, I think I'll just sort of show you," she added as the album cover appeared on the big screen with the October 27 release date. Swifties are of course thrilled at the news, but many in the dedicated fanbase saw this announcement coming with many accurately predicting it would happen on 8/9. "So we all know the tour ends on August 9, 8/9, 89 but I was sitting here curious, how many active weeks of tour would that be or like weeks she's had shows or weekends which would also be the number of she would've played on the whole tour," @amberpunkrose said. @amberpunkrose My sanity is gone #taylorswift #greenscreen #1989 #swiftie #taylorsversion ##erastour##tour##1989taylorsversion ##eastereggs After counting four times, she realised the answer was 19 - "She's ending the tour on 19-8/9, 1989," the TikToker concluded in the video posted last month. A viral TikTok by @swakbeauty asked "Is 1989 TV being announced on 8/9? She [Swift] almost let her out!" as a recent clip from The Eras Tour played of Swift singing 'Look What You Made Me Do' while dancers are dressed in her previous eras stuck in glass boxes. @swakbeauty Will 8/9 be the lucky day? ? #1989taylorsversion #LATSTheErasTour #lookwhatyoumademedo #latstheerastour #tstheerastour #taylorswift #erastour #latserastour #losangeles #sofistadium The clip referred to Swift almost releasing the dancer in the outfit from the 1989 era, teasing the new re-recording. There were also rumours circulating about Starbucks receiving a 1989 (Taylor's Version) playlist this week to play in stores, as @jessicagolich explained sharing a tip from celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi which suggested some news about the re-recording was coming soon. @jessicagolich #greenscreen Rumors are swirling that 8/9 is the day for 1989 TV announcement ?☕️? #starbucksplaylisttaylorswift #taylorswift1989tv #1989taylorsversion #taylorsversion1989 #swiftienews #taylorswiftnews #sofinight4 #tstheerastourlosangeles While another eagle-eyed fan @alexantonides noticed that Swift had an Instagram post scheduled, believing it to be the album announcement. @alexantonides I am freaking out #1989taylorsversion #fyp #swifttok #tstheerastour #latstheerastour #1989 @Taylor Swift So it looks like Swifties were spot on with their prediction. This new 1989 (Taylor's Version) re-recording comes after Swift released Fearless (Taylor's Version) in April 2021, followed by Red (Taylor's Version) in November 2021, and most recently Speak Now (Taylor's Version) on July 7 this year.
