Canadian singer Grimes, the 31-year-old girlfriend of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, recently claimed on social media that she had an eye surgery that, if it actually happened, would be weird to say the least.
She wrote on Instagram: “I have also eliminated all blue light from my vision through an experimental surgery that removes the top film of my eyeball and replaces it with an orange ultra-flex polymer that my friend and I made in the lab this past winter as a means to cure seasonal depression.”
It’s not clear whether there could be any truth to the claim. The post was part of her new Adidas by Stella McCartney advertising campaign, and Science Alert notes that it is “almost undoubtedly tongue-in-cheek.”
The post Grimes’s supposed training regimen, which includes such activities as spending time in a “deprivation tank” that allows her to “‘astro-glide’ to other dimensions – past, present, and future.”
Another element of her routine: “Hana … comes over and we do a screaming session for 20-25 minutes while I slow boil the honey tea that maximizes vocal proficiency.”
Despite the absurdity, Science Alert explains that with all the attention that blue light is receiving lately, “it’s not hard to imagine a future where some rich musician or tech bro decides to block it out entirely by slapping orange film on their eyeballs,” according to Science Alert.

ADIDAS: Tell us about ur training regimen ? GRIMES: My training is a 360 approach. I first maintain a healthy cellular routine where I maximize the function of my mitochondria with supplements such as NAD+, Acetyl L-Carnitine, Magnesium, etc. This helps promote ATP and it’s incredibly visceral. From that point I spend 2-4 hours in my deprivation tank, this allows me to “astro-glide” to other dimensions – past, present, and future. In the afternoons I do a 1-2 hour sword fighting session with my trainer, James Lew, we go over the fundamentals that work the obliques, core stabilizes, and triceps as well as a few tricks. To wind down from this I spend 30-45 minutes on an inclined hike at roughly 4-4.5 miles per hour, arguably the most efficient workout. I then spend 45 minutes stretching before heading into the studio where my mind and body are functioning at peak level, with a neuroplastic goal between 57.5 and 71.5 AphC’s (which is my preferred range for my blood type). I’ve outfitted my studio with the highest grade of red light. It is pretty much 1000 sqf IR Sauna. Hana then comes over and we do a screaming session for 20-25 minutes while I slow boil the honey tea that maximizes vocal proficiency. I have also eliminated all blue light from my vision through an experimental surgery that removes the top film of my eyeball and replaces it with an orange ultra-flex polymer that my friend and I made in the lab this past winter as a means to cure seasonal depression. I go to bed with a humidifier on. #asmc #adidasparley #createdwithadidas #gentrifymordor
