Grimes’s Pregnancy Perks Include Sending A Digital Model To Pose For Her

Grimes is 7 months pregnant and "mega sick." No one wants to have to glam it up for a photo shoot as soon as they're feeling queasy, so the "Violence" singer called in one of her awesome pregnancy perks: sending a digital model to pose for a magazine cover in her stead.


With her new album Miss Anthropocene out everywhere today (February 21), Grimes took a moment to head to Instagram to show off her latest cover photo for The Face magazine. It looks like the diminutive, ethereal pop star, however it's actually her avatar War Nymph.


"Ok! TMI here — however prob out of album stress? X also much work etc I was mega sick last night (it was rough haha 😭 sorry for tmi) yet it rly makes the reason we made @Warnymph all of the more relevant to me cuz I CANNOT DO ANY MORE PJOTOS OR I plan to DIEEE," Grimes wrote alongside War Nymph's magazine over debut. Although yes, 🧚🏻‍♀️🪐🐉 At 7 months pregnant, I sent my avatar to resemble me for the cover of The Face magazine!"


"A huge piece of why we made her was cuz knew I may have to delay my album because of the way it’s synching up w my whole health scenario and rly didn’t wanna do that again! This is the opening time we let the @warnymph be rendered through another artist’s Lens so thank u to @dylan.Kowalski.Artwork and @thefacemagazine. All dresses @balenciaga."


Grimes wants you to be sure you share your feedback on War Nymph and why close she resembles the real thing, though, so be sure to share your thoughts with the artist.


"Does she look like me? Should she be more fantastical? What edits would you make to @warnymph beta 1.0? She’ll perish soon so right now is the time to critique demo girl! (She won’t be sad) Ok!"


Using an avatar to pose in all Balenciaga for a cover shoot? Your fave could never.
