Grimes heralded her condition with a sensitive photo on Instagram, which featured the singer posing naked with an image of a fetus photoshopped onto her stomach. \u201cI thought about censoring them [her cleavage] for a hot minute haha (this may get taken down anyway,) but the photo is much less feral without the nipples,\u201d Grimes captioned the pic. \u201cPlus, being knocked up is a very feral & war-like state of being.
