Oyster Notes: Grimes' Imaginary Online Dating Profile
Her username would be Grimes69. Clearly awesome.
Grimes' music is kind of like the audio equivalent of The Internet. With her pink (or green, or blonde, or blue) hair and penchance for bindis, it's no wonder she has become the unofficial poster girl of the Tumblr generation. She also has over 70,000 Twitter followers. For Oyster #101: Let's Get Digital we put her on the spot and asked her to make up an imaginary online dating profile.
Username: Grimes69.
Quote: Um um um... I don't think I'd ever make a dating profile, so I feel weird making a quote for my nonexistent dating profile. I don't know, maybe, "Try and convince me that you're cool enough for me to actually go on a date with you over some internet dating service."
Age: 24.
Location: Probably North America.
Profession: Artist.
Smoking habits: Social smoker.
Want children: No.
Drinking habits: Infrequent but heavy when occurring.
Diet: Vegetarian but chill.
Have pets: No, but pets are wanted in the future.
Perfect first date: Like, something exciting. Crazy. Anything crazy.
Ideal relationship: One where I don't have to do very much stuff and it's extremely open.
What I've learnt from past relationships: Not to get into relationships.
Music: All music but mostly pop, boring kid music and electronic music.
Movies and TV: Historical, medieval and fantasy dramas. David Lynch films.
Sports: Basketball and soccer.
