The Grimes' Pregnancy meme originated in January 2020 when the experimental pop artist shared a controversial, high-concept photo on Instagram featuring a CGI fetus superimposed on her body. The image, which signaled her pregnancy with tech billionaire Elon Musk, immediately went viral due to its avant-garde aesthetic and the subsequent revelation of the child's unconventional name, X Æ A-12. The meme evolved into a broader commentary on futuristic parenting, transhumanism, and the perceived eccentricity of the Silicon Valley elite. Today, users utilize the template to joke about anything involving strange data, alien-like behavior, or the inevitable rise of our robot-baby overlords.
