Censored for insta haha - almost got away w it

A post shared by Grimes (@grimes) on Jan 8, 2020 at 3:42pm PST

Responding to a comment about her uncensored nipples on the original post last night (8 January), Vogue reports that Grimes wrote, "I thought about censoring them for a hot minute haha (this may get taken down anyway), but the photo is so much less feral without the nipples. Plus being knocked up is a very feral and war-like state of being. Might as well be what it is. Plus most of my friends told me not to post them so then I was afflicted with reverse psychology. Interrogated my shame on it and decided it was sum weird internalized self hatred to feel uncomfortable abt my body."

Last month, Grimes shared her latest Miss Anthropocene single "4ÆM".

Grimes' Miss Anthropocene album arrives via 4AD on 21 February, and is available to pre-order now.
