‘Yellowstone’ Fans Are Making Demands After Luke Grimes Confirms Shocking IG News

Folks are wondering more than ever what Luke has been up to when he’s not playing Kayce Dutton.

Well, it looks like fans will start getting a new glimpse of the actor’s life off the ranch.
Attention Yellowstone fans, Luke Grimes just cleared up the air about his social media presence ahead of the season 5 premiere.
With the hit Paramount Network show preparing its return on November 13, folks are wondering more than ever what Luke has been up to when he’s not playing Kayce Dutton. Well, it looks like fans will start getting a new glimpse of the actor’s life off the ranch, thanks to his latest commitment to share tidbits on Instagram.
“Hey there, Luke here,” he wrote in a post on October 20. “Yes, this is actually my Instagram and I know I am very late to the party. Better late than never? I will check in here from time to time with updates etc but I promise to keep the selfies to a minimum. Much Love. More soon.”
With Luke’s well-known preference to keep his personal life away from the spotlight, the news of him being on social media threw established Yellowstone viewers for a loop. What’s more, when folks reacted to the actor’s photo, many loudly voiced how he should interact on the platform.
“BUT WE WANT ALL THE SELFIES,” one person wrote in the comments section. “Selfies are great — include some with your beautiful wife!!” another added, referencing Luke’s wife Bianca Rodriguez. “Love seeing your face on here more ✨❤️,” a different fan said.
What’s more, some didn’t hesitate to start sharing messages with him ranging from his official Instagram debut to the show. “Welcome to the party 🔥,” a follower commented. “Can’t wait to see more Yellowstone and what music you’re bringing us ❤️🔥,” someone else chimed in. “Our king ❤️❤️❤️❤️,” another quipped.
While Luke is getting lots of attention for his current TV work, he’s also dabbled into other projects. Back in September, the Ohio native shared that he would be performing a set of original country songs at Stagecoach on April 30. Just a few weeks later, he revealed to the New York Post that he’d signed a record deal as well.
“I was writing some stuff, singing it into my iPhone, and sent it to a few friends,” he told the outlet. “One thing led to another, and I get a phone call from this great music manager, and he says, ‘Do you really want to try this?’ And I said, ‘Well, why wouldn’t I?’, not really thinking much of it. Now here I am signed with Universal Nashville, I’ve got a record deal, and I have a show booked!”
Needless to say, we’re about to get a lot more from Luke real soon.

Musk has a ‘super app’ plan for Twitter. It’s super vague
Elon Musk has a penchant for the letter “X.” He calls his son with the singer Grimes, whose actual name is a collection of letters and symbols, “X.” He named the company he created to buy Twitter “X Holdings.” His rocket company is, naturally, SpaceX.
Now he also apparently intends to morph Twitter into an “everything app” he calls X.
For months, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO has expressed interest in creating his own version of China’s WeChat — a “super app” that does video chats, messaging, streaming and payments — for the rest of the world. At least, that is, once he’s done buying Twitter after months of legal infighting over the $44 billion purchase agreement he signed in April.
There are just a few obstacles. First is that a Musk-owned Twitter wouldn’t be the only global company in pursuit of this goal, and in fact would probably be playing catch-up with its rivals. Next is the question of whether anyone really wants a Twitter-based everything app— or any other super app — to begin with.
Start with the competition and consumer demand. Facebook parent Meta has spent years trying to make its flagship platform a destination for everything online, adding payments, games, shopping and even dating features to its social network. So far, it’s had little success; nearly all of its revenue still comes from advertising.
Google, Snap, TikTok, Uber and others have also tried to jump on the super app bandwagon, expanding their offerings in an effort to become indispensable to people as they go about their day. None have set the world on fire so far, not least because people already have a number of apps at their disposal to handle shopping, communicating and payments.
“Old habits are hard to break, and people in the U.S. are used to using different apps for different activities,” said Jasmine Enberg, principal analyst at Insider Intelligence. Enberg also notes that super apps would likely suck up more personal data at a time when trust in social platforms has deteriorated significantly.
Musk kicked off the latest round of speculation on Oct. 4, the day he reversed his attempts to get out of the deal and announced that he wanted to acquire Twitter after all. “Buying Twitter is an accelerant to creating X, the everything app,” he tweeted without further explanation.
But he’s provided at least a little more detail in the past. During Tesla’s annual shareholder meeting in August, Musk told the crowd at a factory near Austin, Texas, that he thinks he’s “got a good sense of where to point the engineering team with Twitter to make it radically better.”
And he’s dropped some strong hints that handling payments for goods and services would be a key part of the app. Musk said he has a “grander vision” for what X.com, an online bank he started early in his career that eventually became part of PayPal, could have been.
“Obviously that could be started from scratch, but I think Twitter would help accelerate that by three to five years,” Musk said in August. “So it’s kind of something that I thought would be quite useful for a long time. I know what to do.”
But it’s not clear that WeChat’s success in China means the same idea would translate for a U.S. or global audience. WeChat usage in almost universal in China, where most people never had a computer at home and skipped straight to going online by mobile phone.
Operated by tech giant Tencent Holding Ltd., the platform has made itself a one-stop shop for payments and other services and is starting to compete in entertainment. It is also a platform for health code apps the public is required to use prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
China has 1 billion internet users, and nearly all of them go online by mobile phone, according to the government-sanctioned China Internet Network Information Center. Only 33% use desktop computers at all — and mostly in addition to mobile phones. Tencent says WeChat had 1.3 billion users worldwide as of the end of June.
Tencent and its main Chinese competitor, e-commerce giant Alibaba Group, aim to make apps that offer so many services that users can’t easily switch to another app. They’re not the only ones.
WeChat has added video calls and other message features as well as shopping, entertainment and other features. Government agencies use it to send out health, traffic and other announcements. WeChat’s payment function, meanwhile, is so widely used that coffee shops, museums and some other businesses refuse cash and will take payment only through WeChat or the rival Ant app.
There is no comparable app in the U.S., despite tech companies’ efforts.
It’s worth remembering that Musk’s grand visions don’t always work out the way he appears to expect. Humans are nowhere near colonizing Mars and his promised fleet of robotaxis remains about as far from reality as the metaverse.
Twitter’s user base is also tiny relative to those at its social-platform competitors. While Facebook, Instagram and TikTok all passed the 1 billion mark long ago, Twitter has about 240 million daily users.
“Musk would not only have to overcome the hurdle of convincing consumers to change how they behave online, but also that Twitter is the place to do it,” Enberg said.

Elon Musk believes his ex-girlfriend Grimes is so perfect she must be a figment of his imagination
In the latest slice of bizarre from the private life of Elon Musk, the tech titan believes that ex-girlfriend Grimes is so perfect that she must be a simulation he created in his mind, according to a new BBC documentary.
The same documentary, called The Elon Musk Show, then goes on to say that Grimes actually agrees with the theory.
The Canadian singer was already 31 when she met Musk but those three decades in existence appear not to have swayed her too much when considering the theory.
Vanity Fair journalist Devin Gordon says that Grimes, real name Claire Boucher, shared with him Musk’s mind-bending theory in a recent interview.
‘She told me repeatedly that Musk has this theory of her that she’s not real, that she’s a simulation who was created by him and exists in his cerebral cortex as sort of the perfect companion to him,’ he says.
‘Which sounds a little crazy and maybe even a little creepy, except, she agrees with it. She said she does feel like this simulation which was perfectly created for him.’
Musk has flirted before with the philosophical concept that our reality – and all of us in it – is just a simulation in a computer somewhere in another reality that we can never access or perceive – known as the ‘simulation theory’.
‘If you assume any rate of improvement at all, games will eventually be indistinguishable from reality,’ Musk said on the Joe Rogan Experience in 2018, before concluding: ‘We’re most likely in a simulation.’
Grimes and Elon Musk make their first public appearance together Met Gala in 2018
They have two children together: Their first child, a son named X Æ A-Xii was born in May 2020, and he was followed by a daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl via surrogate in 2021

The Tesla mogul and the dream pop star had met originally over Twitter, when the duo enjoyed a tech-based joke, and they made their first public appearance together at the Met Gala in 2018.
‘They’ve been seeing each other but have been keeping their relationship under the radar,’ a source said at the time.
Musk had just emerged from a tryst with Amber Heard and and in Boucher he found a kindred spirit whose music was quite tech-based and they shared an interest in technology, fantasy and dark theories.
Their first child, a son named X Æ A-Xii was born in May 2020, and he was followed by a daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl via surrogate in 2021.
The couple broke up in 2021 after three years and two children together, with the billionaire citing his work with Tesla and SpaceX as keeping him in Texas and too busy to be with Boucher who was mainly in LA.
News that they celebrity duo had split began to emerge in 2021, and in September that year Musk made the announcement.
‘We are semi-separated but still love each other, see each other frequently and are on great terms,’ Musk said.
The SpaceX and Tesla CEO explained, ‘It’s mostly that my work at SpaceX and Tesla requires me to be primarily in Texas or travelling overseas and her work is primarily in LA. She’s staying with me now and Baby X is in the adjacent room.’
The Elon Musk Show is a three part documentary which began this week and features glossy interviews with former colleagues and family members, including mum Maye.
Musk’s private life has long been highly unorthodox. He has ten children in total between three mothers, with the oldest being 18-year-old twins.

He also has a difficult relationship with his raconteur father, who is in a relationship with Musk’s own step-sister whom his father raised himself.
Errol Musk revealed that he had a second unplanned child with 35-year-old Jana Bezuidenhout three years ago in 2019, making the children both Musk’s step nieces and step-sisters.
Elon Musk reportedly went ‘berserk’ when he found out and his relationship with his father has been even more strained ever since.
Although Errol denies having a bad relationship with his billionaire son, Elon has previously described his engineer father as ‘evil’ and a ‘terrible human being.’
However, Musk is no stranger to controversial and unorthodox parenthood himself, with court documents revealing that the tech billionaire quietly had twins with one of his top executives in November, weeks before he welcomed a child with Grimes.
The Tesla CEO reportedly had twins with Shivon Zilis, 36, the director of operations at Musk’s brain-machine interface company Neuralink.
Musk’s personal life has always been complicated since the billionaire left behind a troubled childhood in South Africa.
He experienced difficulties as a child thanks to his rocky relationship with his father and being severely bullied at school.
It got so bad that he was once hospitalised after his bullies pushed him down a set of stairs.
But since moving to the US, Musk has had a complicated love life that includes three marriages and three divorces, including two of each with the same woman, and seven children from two long-term romances.
He and his first wife, Justine Wilson, now 49, met while they were both attending Queen’s University, and they tied the knot in 2000 and went on to have six kids. THey divorced in 2008.

In April, one of his sons with Justine, Xavier Musk, 18, filed court documents seeking to legally change their gender from male to female and lose their last name, stating: ‘I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.’
Following his split from Wilson, Musk began dating British star Talulah Riley.
Riley, now 36 – who was a virgin when she began dating Musk in 2008 – first tied the knot with the Tesla architect in 2010.
They divorced in 2012, got re-married, and divorced again in 2016. The couple did not have any children.
Musk dated actress Amber Heard, 35, for several months in late 2016 and early 2017, after he reportedly pursued her for many years.
Heard’s ex-husband, Johnny Depp, later accused Heard of cheating on him with Musk while they were still married, but both Musk and Heard denied the affair.
And then Musk met Grimes in 2018.

Nevada
Elon Musk and his first wife Canadian Justine Wilson had their first son, Nevada, in 2002.
But Nevada died of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) at 10 weeks.

Twins Griffin and Vivian Jenna Wilson (formerly Xavier), aged 18
After losing Nevada, Musk and Wilson – who were married between 2000 and 2008 – turned to IVF to grow their family.
Wilson gave birth to twin sons Griffin and Xavier Musk in April 2004.
In April, Xavier filed court documents seeking to legally change from male to female and lose their last name, stating: ‘I no longer live with or wish to be related to my biological father in any way, shape or form.’
Xavier Musk, 18, filed the paperwork in Santa Monica, California, on April 18, seeking to be known as Vivian Jenna Wilson, taking the maiden name of her mother Justine Wilson, who was married to Musk from 2000 to 2008 and shares 18-year-old twins Xavier and Griffin and 16-year-old triplets Damian, Kai and Saxon.
The transgender teenager explained that they wish to take their mother’s last name to distance them from their dad but they have not commented on whether they receive financial support from their dad – whose $213 billion dollar fortune makes him the world’s richest man.

Musk and Wilson also used IVF to have triplet sons Damian, Kai and Saxon in January 2006.
The couple divorced in 2008 and they share custody of their five sons.

X AE A-Xii Musk, aged 2
Musk started dating singer Grimes in May 2018 and she gave birth to their son X AE A-Xii, in May 2020.
Their son was originally named X Æ A-12, but ‘Æ’ and ’12’ violated California law, which prohibits the use of any numbers of symbols in a name. The couple then changed the spelling of their son’s name.
Instead of X Æ A-12, they revealed just a few weeks after the baby was born that his birth certificate would be registered under the name X AE A-Xii – using the Roman numeral version of the number ’12’ and changing the character æ to AE.
The couple then broke up in September 2021.

Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, who goes by Y, aged 1
Grimes and Musk later welcomed their first daughter, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, via surrogate in December 2021.
Grimes referred to Musk as her ‘boyfriend’ in a Vanity Fair interview, but after the interview was published, she took to Twitter to reveal that they had since broken up.
‘Me and E have broken up *again* since the writing of this article,’ she wrote on March 10. ‘But he’s my best friend and the love of my life.’
New set of twins, names unknown
It has emerged that Musk quietly had twins with one of his top executives weeks before he welcomed a child with Grimes via surrogate.
In November, the Tesla CEO, 51, reportedly had twins with Shivon Zilis, 36, the director of operations at Musk’s brain-machine interface company Neuralink, Insider reported. He now has nine known children.
Musk and Zilis filed a petition in April to change the twins’ names in order to ‘have their father’s last name and contain their mother’s last name as part of their middle name,’ according to the court documents.
The twins were born in November, just weeks before Musk and Claire Boucher, the musician who performs as Grimes, had their second child via surrogate in December.

Grimes calls Mark Zuckerberg ‘under-qualified’ to run the Metaverse
It seems as though it may take some convincing for Grimes if Mark Zuckerberg were ever to run the Metaverse.
The singer, 34, expressed her disdain over the tech mogul’s plans to expand the company formerly known as Facebook into a metaverse pioneer.
In fact, she thinks he’s “wildly under-qualified” to steer the ship.
Taking to Twitter Friday, the “Oblivion” hitmaker, who previously dated billionaire Elon Musk, slammed the Facebook founder’s Metaverse avatar.
“If Zuck ‘oversees the Metaverse’ it is dead and people who care about art and culture are building something else. Also this is bad art,” tweeted the singer, whose real name is Claire Boucher.
“The quality of this image alone speaks to how wildly under-qualified he is to build alternate reality, literally every indie game looks better.”
Last week, Zuckerberg posted an image of his Metaverse avatar on Facebook, but the response was far from what he had hoped.
He went on to share a different version of the avatar just days later.
“I know the photo I posted earlier this week was pretty basic — it was taken very quickly to celebrate a launch,” he wrote. “The graphics in Horizon are capable of much more — even on headsets — and Horizon is improving very quickly.”
Zuckerberg directed a companywide shift toward the metaverse last fall — going as far as to rebrand Facebook’s corporate name to Meta — as the embattled social media platform contends with a series of scandals over its business practices and internal policies.
Donovan Mitchell Trade Rumors: Knicks Declined Jazz Offer for Grimes, 6 1sts, More | News, Scores, Highlights, Stats, and Rumors
Alex Goodlett/Getty Images
The New York Knicks reportedly turned down a huge trade offer from the Utah Jazz involving All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell.
Appearing on ESPN 700 in Salt Lake City, Tony Jones of The Athletic (h/t RealGM) said the Knicks balked at sending six first-round picks, Quentin Grimes, Immanuel Quickley and Obi Toppin to Utah for Mitchell.
If the Jazz deal Mitchell, it will mark their second blockbuster trade of the offseason, as they sent All-Star center Rudy Gobert to the Minnesota Timberwolves for a package that included several players and four first-round picks.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported this week that the Jazz decided to start listening to offers for Mitchell after initially suggesting they would move forward with Mitchell as the centerpiece of the franchise.
It was then reported by Jones and Shams Charania of The Athletic that the Jazz had spoken to multiple teams about a Mitchell trade, with the Knicks emerging as “the focused destination.”
Utah reportedly zeroed in on the Knicks since they can offer a better combination of draft picks and young players than any team.
The Knicks have eight tradable draft picks, with four being their own and the other four being acquired in trades. They also have some solid, young talent such as Grimes, Quickley and Toppin.
Charania and Jones reported that Grimes is of particular interest to the Jazz after the 2021 first-round pick averaged 6.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.0 assist per game as a rookie.
The Knicks reached the playoffs as the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference in 2021 with a 41-31 record, but they dropped off significantly last season, going 37-45 and missing the playoffs.
New York made some big changes this offseason in an effort to bounce back, shipping veterans Kemba Walker, Alec Burks and Nerlens Noel to the Detroit Pistons to clear salary-cap space before signing former Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson in free agency.
Adding Mitchell to a core that includes Brunson, Julius Randle and R.J. Barrett would likely put the Knicks back in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race, but they apparently have reached a line they aren’t willing to cross.
Trading six first-rounders and most of their best young players would have made it difficult for the Knicks to make any other changes or improvements in the near future, so the Knicks are reportedly digging their heels in and waiting for a more palatable offer for Mitchell.
Quentin Grimes shows out as Knicks open summer league with win
LAS VEGAS — Quentin Grimes’ goal was to “dominate” summer league play.
It took him some time Friday night, but the Knicks’ young guard followed through in his team’s opening game.
After missing eight consecutive shots, Grimes took off in the second half, leading the Knicks to a 101-88 victory over the defending Las Vegas Summer League champion Warriors at the Thomas and Mack Center.
With team president Leon Rose, owner James Dolan coach Tom Thibodeau and teammates Julius Randle, Immanuel Quickley, Cam Reddish and Obi Toppin in attendance, Grimes finished with 24 points, eight assists, four rebounds, two steals and just one turnover in 32 quality minutes.
“I feel like I kind of dominated or almost got close in the second half,” Grimes said. “Just try to dominate offensively, defensively by being in the right positions. It’s not always about making shots.”
While his perimeter jumper was off for most of the night — the former first-round pick out of Houston went 4-for-14 from 3-point range — the 6-foot-4 Grimes kept on shooting.
Even after hitting two in a row from distance early in the third quarter to get going, Grimes didn’t settle for long jumpers. He attacked the basket and finished through contract, something he has worked on this offseason to complement his 3-point shot. He hit seven of his last 12 shots, and also was a strong distributor on this night.
“Hopefully I’ll have a bigger role as a playmaker [this year] and also stick to my roots as a defensive player and as a shooter,” he said.
This is a crucial offseason for Grimes, the best Knicks rookie last year, whose progress was set back by a knee injury late in the year. Thibodeau has raved about his defense, which may give Grimes a shot at a starting role in the backcourt next year, alongside newcomer Jalen Brunson.
He is hoping to make a statement over the next 10 days in Las Vegas. With that in mind, Friday night was a strong start for him.
Feron Hunt added 17 points, Jericho Sims had 16 points, 10 rebounds and two blocks and Miles McBride chipped in 14 points and seven assists in the win.
Moses Moody, a lottery pick a year ago, led all scorers with 34 points for the Warriors.
Here’s The Game Tesla CEO Elon Musk Says Is Deeper Than Chess
Last December, Grimes released a new song from her upcoming album “Book 1.” The track, called “Player of Games,” was speculated to be inspired by her relationship with Elon Musk. One of the lyrics, “I’m in love with the greatest gamer,” got me thinking: what kind of video games does Musk play when he’s not reinventing public transit or allegedly abusing his employees?
A recent Vanity Fair interview with Grimes revealed that Musk’s latest obsession is The Battle of Polytopia, which he describes as a “much more complex version of chess.” Apparently, he’s even beaten the creator at his own game at least once, which he’s very proud of. While he’s obviously boasting about his big brain for his fawning fans, I wouldn’t be a video game journalist if I didn’t check out the game for myself. So, I downloaded Polytopia and played a single game.
The Battle of Polytopia is a civilization simulator in which you control one of twelve different “tribes.” You try to expand the territory of your empire by collecting resources, exploring uncharted territory, and destroying rival civilizations. In short, it’s the exact sort of game that might appeal to a white billionaire who benefitted from apartheid in South Africa. He loves it so much that at one point, Polytopia was added as a playable game to Tesla cars—you know, before the government started asking questions about a feature that might take your attention away from driving.

I played one game, which lasted twenty-five rounds. Every round, I could move my military units one space across the map, and I would be rewarded with stars each turn. These resources could be invested into extractive technologies for things like forestry or fishing, or they could be put into new kinds of soldiers. The goal was to wipe out as many enemy factions as possible before the turn limit.
Polytopia is not as complex as Musk described. If anything, winning against the computer-controlled enemies was easier than any chess game I’ve ever played. There were more opponents than in a chess game, but its difficulty was inherently constrained by the number of possible actions per turn. Polytopia is an approachable game for newcomers to the civilization builder genre, but it’s definitely not what I expected from the so-called “Player of Games.”
Grimes reveals secret birth of second baby with Elon Musk: ‘I’m not at liberty to speak on these things’
Grimes has revealed, seemingly accidentally, that she has welcomed her second child with Elon Musk.
In a new interview, the musician invited writer Devin Gordon to her home in Austin, Texas.
When the journalist heard a baby cry, they asked if Grimes had another child apart from the one-year-old son, named X Æ A-12, she shares with the tech billionaire.
“I’m not at liberty to speak on these things,” Grimes, real name Claire Elise Boucher, told Vanity Fair in response. “Whatever is going on with family stuff, I just feel like kids need to stay out of it, and X is just out there.
“I mean, I think E is really seeing him as a protégé and bringing him to everything and stuff… X is out there. His situation is like that. But, yeah, I don’t know.”
She then admitted that she and Musk recently welcomed a baby girl, Exa Dark Sideræl Musk, who was born via a surrogate. The couple have nicknamed the baby “Y”.
Grimes said her new baby girl is “colicky” and so was more likely than usual to be crying. “I don’t know what I was thinking,” she said of her decision to invite a journalist to her house.
It had been reported in September last year that Grimes and Musk had split up, but speaking about their relationship, Grimes told the publication: “There’s no real word for it. I would probably refer to him as my boyfriend, but we’re very fluid.”

She added: “We live in separate houses. We’re best friends. We see each other all the time… We just have our own thing going on, and I don’t expect other people to understand it…
“This is the best it’s ever been…. We just need to be free…We’ve always wanted at least three or four [children].”
Following reports of her split from Musk, Grimes was photographed in October reading Karl Marx’s The Communist Manifesto.
Responding to fans who joked that she had returned to her “communist roots”, the artist said she had been “trolling” people with the pictures after becoming “really stressed” by photographers following her.
“Paparazzi followed me to a shoot so I tried to think what I could do that would yield the most Onion-ish possible headline and it worked,” she tweeted at the time.
