"Please respond to our child's medical dilemma. I apologize for doing this publicly, but it is no longer appropriate to overlook this problem. This deserves immediate attention," Grimes, actual name Claire Elise Boucher, said in a since-deleted post on Musk's X (previously Twitter) on Thursday.

The Canadian singer and Musk share three children: X Æ A-Xii, three-year-old daughter Exa Dark Siderael, and two-year-old boy Tau Techno Mechanicus. "If you don't want to speak with me, please designate or recruit someone who can, so that we can move forward with this. "This is urgent, Elon," Grimes said on X, without mentioning the severity of the medical problem.

Grimes also took to X earlier this month to respond to Musk's decision to send their 4-year-old son to the White House for a news appearance, as Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) work to slash government expenditure and federal employee numbers.

"He should not be in public like this," Grimes wrote. "I didn't see this; thank you for notifying me. But I am delighted he was courteous. Sigh." Musk has twelve known offspring from three different mothers. In 2024, he had his third kid with Neuralink executive Shivon Zilis.

On February 14, author Ashley St. Clair claimed on X that she had given birth to Musk's 13th child five months earlier.

What is Bell's Palsy? Signs, triggers, and treatment options

Image
Bell’s palsy is a neurological disorder that causes temporary facial paralysis, typically affecting only one side of the face. This condition can result in symptoms such as a lopsided smile, difficulty closing one eyelid, and a drooping face. Though the condition is temporary for most, it can significantly impact daily life. Lil Nas X reveals he's been hospitalized, says he's 'lost control' of half his face. Getty Images The Causes of Bell’s Palsy The primary cause of Bell's palsy is inflammation of the seventh cranial nerve, also known as the facial nerve, which controls the muscles of the face. Inflammation can disrupt the nerve’s function, leading to facial paralysis. While viral infections are often linked to the condition, many cases do not have a clear cause, making them idiopathic (of unknown origin). • Viral infections that may trigger Bell’s palsy include: • Herpes simplex 1 (which causes cold sores) • Epstein-Barr virus (responsible for mononuc...

'Daredevil: Born Again' review: Is the return of Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk worth the wait?

Image
In Daredevil: Born Again, the iconic archnemeses Matt Murdock (Charlie Cox) and Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) face off once again, each claiming they’ve changed. Matt, struggling with a tragic past, swears he’s done with his vigilante life, while Wilson, now a mayoral candidate in New York City, insists he has left behind his criminal empire. Charlie Cox in ' Daredevil: Born Again. ' Giovanni Rufino/Marvel However, neither character truly believes the other, and neither do we. The core of this show relies on the inevitable return of these characters to their familiar roles. If Matt and Wilson ever completely transformed, there would be no story to tell. This sense of familiarity brings both comfort and constraint. Daredevil: Born Again largely sticks to the same formula that worked in the original Netflix series, which can be satisfying, but it also risks feeling stagnant. Despite having new leadership — with Dario Scardapane serving as showrunner and Matt Corman...

Jenna Ortega confirms 'Scream' exit was tied to Melissa Barrera firing, not scheduling

Image
‎In a candid interview with The Cut, Jenna Ortega clarified the long-speculated reason behind her departure from the Scream franchise, confirming it was not due to scheduling conflicts as previously reported, but rather her disillusionment with how the production handled the firing of co-star Melissa Barrera. ' Jenna Ortega. ' Getty Images ‎ ‎Ortega, who played Tara Carpenter in 2022’s Scream and 2023’s Scream VI, exited the franchise in November 2023—just one day after Barrera was dismissed over her pro-Palestinian social media posts.

If ‘Scream VII’ wasn’t going to be with that team of directors and those people I fell in love with, then it didn’t seem like the right move for me in my career at the time.” ‎ ‎B...
