Singer Grimes raised eyebrows after claiming she couldn’t afford to buy a house without the financial backing of her ex, Elon Musk.

“Sign up to reduce housing costs in Austin. We have legislation in force here, but we need public support.”
However, despite her good intentions, some followers criticized the singer for petitioning for something she claimed didn’t affect her.
