- Grimes revealed during a YouTube livestream Q&A with fans that she doesn't feel the need to reveal the gender of her child to the public.
- She also has a name picked out for the baby, but won't disclose that either.
- Grimes is currently seven months pregnant with her first child.
Grimes is keeping details about her future child closely guarded.
Per People, the "Violence" singer—who is currently seven months pregnant with her first child—revealed during a YouTube livestream that she has no interest in revealing her baby's gender.
"I don't want to say the gender of the baby … because I feel like their privacy should be protected. I don't think they can consent to being famous or being in public," said the singer. "And I don't want to gender them in case that's not how they feel in their life. I don't know, I just feel like it doesn't need to be known."
The singer confirmed her statement again when a fan on Twitter asked if she's having "a girl or boy." She responded, "They may decide their fate and identity." (The tweet has since been deleted.)
Grimes—who just released her new album, Miss Anthropocene—also shared that she does have a name picked out, but she has no plans on sharing that either.
"I have a name for the baby, but I don't want to say what it is because everyone I've told it hates it, and everyone's gonna make fun of it," explained Grimes. "But it is, in fact, a genius name and people just don't appreciate it yet because it's too avant-garde."
