After rumours that they were dating, Grimes and Elon Musk made their debut as a couple at the Met Gala.

Billionaire entrepreneur Musk and musician Grimes are said to have met online, over a joke.

According to Page Six, Musk had planned to tweet a joke about artificial intelligence but discovered Grimes had already made it.

The new couple wore black and white for the Met Gala, in New York, with its “Catholic Imagination” theme – while Grimes donned what looked like a choker in the shape of the Tesla symbol.

In March, Musk wrote that Grimes’s video for Venus Fly, featuring Janelle Monae, was the “best music video art I’ve seen in a while”.

Grimes, real name Claire Boucher,  made a name for herself with her third album, Visions, in 2012.

The Canadian’s fourth album, Art Angels, also received critical acclaim.
