Grimes is the girlfriend of billionaire Elon Musk, founder of electric car company Tesla and CEO of SpaceX, a company that manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft into space. It was also recently awarded a US$178 million contract by Nasa to launch a spacecraft to Jupiter’s moon, Europa.
The photos appear to have been taken at the SpaceX location in Hawthorne, California.
Later, Grimes took to Twitter to share more photos of their meeting with the caption, “Jennie and Grimes go to space.”
Similarly, Jennie also posted an update to her Instagram account saying, “Rocket day with my fairy princess @grimes”.
Fans were quick to begin speculating that the two might have a collaboration in the works especially because both Grimes and Musk have been vocal about the fact that they are fans of K-Pop.
