    There’s a difference between Grimes saying something and Azealia Banks claiming that Grimes said something. I’d be very skeptical of any rumor started by Azealia Banks.

      There’s not, grimes has had ample opportunity to rebuke the idea and chose not to so it stands as circumstantial evidence.

      I am skeptical of anyone giving musk the benefit of the doubt at this point, guess we’re just different people huh?

        Nobody wants to respond to Azealia Banks, who is known for harassing other artists on social media, especially ones who don’t have the foresight to avoid interacting with her. Grimes didn’t comment the last name Banks dragged her into a feud related to Elon Musk, and later released a song about “trying to destroy Azealia Banks when she tried to destroy my life”.

        Why would Grimes go out of her way to defend her ex against rumors about his penis when he just tried to block her from seeing their children? Grimes is not responsible for refuting rumors about Musk and she has every reason to ignore them, even more so when Azealia Banks is involved.

          That’s a wall of text that says you can’t disprove it you just distrust a random singer less than the Nazi in the white house. Genius position, hope it works out for you.

            I don’t trust known liars like Elon Musk or Azealia Banks, so don’t put words in my mouth. You taking gossip from a “random singer” seriously because Grimes ignored it is a “genius position”, hope it works out for you.

              I didn’t take advice. I said I wouldn’t doubt it. there’s evidence to suggest it’s true. You seem to be the one outright ignoring someone because you don’t trust them, so yeah genius position.

              Ps, you’re taking gossip too you dirty gossip girl, in fact you linked to it as though it were somehow evidence.

                Yes, I distrust claims from people who are untrustworthy, including Elon Musk and Azealia Banks. You should too.

                Azealia Banks saying something on Twitter is not “evidence”.

                    Unsubstantiated gossip from a habitual liar is not evidence. Saying “yes it is” however firmly will not change that fact.
