On Monday, Grimes and Elon Musk announced the arrival of their first child. Prior to their relationship, which started in 2018, Grimes was known for her electronic music and abilities as a director. Now, following the birth of her son, how much is the Canadian singer worth?

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Grimes, whose real name is Claire Elise Boucher, is worth an estimated $3 million. While the outlet did not elaborate on how she made her money, it can be assumed that a portion of it came from creating her music and touring to promote it.

As stated by the outlet, Boucher began "touring extensively as the Grimes persona" after releasing her second album, "Halfaxa." Her second album followed her 2010 debut, "Geidi Primes," which was released in various formats, including cassette tape.

In January 2012, she then signed a record deal with 4AD and released her third album, "Visions" under her new label in the same year.

"Oblivion" and "Genesis" are two singles included on that album, which have been earned millions of views on YouTube over the years. Since then, she has also released two additional albums, 2015's "Art Angels" and 2020's "Miss Anthropocene."

It was also noted by Celebrity Net Worth that Grimes went on to sign with Jay-Z's Roc Nation management company and later had her songs featured on various soundtracks, including the 2018 movie "Teen Spirit" and an episode of USA Network's "Mr. Robot."

In addition to the aforementioned works that Grimes had produced, she is also known as a visual artist, as she creates her own merchandise, and has had her art featured in galleries and shows.

As for how Grimes has spent part of her money, Observer reports that prior to beginning her relationship with the SpaceX entrepreneur, she bought a house in Pasadena, California.
