Kesha Performs At 2016 Billboard Music Awards, Gets Standing Ovation
Kesha is being blocked from putting out any music since she’s locked in a fucked up and never-ending lawsuit with Dr. Luke, her longtime producer, holder of her record contract, and accused rapist. That means that no matter how much she’d like to record and release a new album, and no matter how often she says she doesn’t want to work with her abuser anymore, he’s still not going to let her out of her contract (though apparently at one time there was the offer of an out, if only she’d recant her accusations against him). Anyhoo, one thing Kesha WAS allowed to do (though not at first) was perform at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards, and she did just that, earning a standing ovation for her emotional performance. She performed a cover of Bob Dylan’s “It Ain’t Me, Babe” and brought the house down. While part of it was because the song was so good, it was also just incredibly sad and yet also empowering and hopeful. The below video might be ripped down by the time you see it, but I’ll try to update it with a new one if that happens: Originally, it seemed that Dr. Luke was going to continue to be an asshole about Kesha when his label tried to block the performance. This was the statement they released last week when it seemed like the performance might not happen: “Kesha accepted an invitation to perform on the show and she received written approval from Dr. Luke’s record label, Kemosabe Records. “Kemosabe subsequently rescinded its approval following a media report on Wednesday, May 11 regarding Kesha’s appearance on the BBMAs. Unfortunately, Kesha and Kemosabe have since been unable to come to an agreement for Kesha to perform on the show,” the statement continues. “Dick Clark productions has a long standing relationship with Kesha. We hope that the parties can come to an arrangement such that we can continue that long standing relationship with a performance by Kesha on the Billboard Music Awards stage on May 22,” DCP added. Thank god it got worked out (probably because there was such outrage over this and they felt they had to cave, but no matter) and hopefully she’ll be out of that damn contract sooner rather than later, too.

Kesha Could Have Gotten Out Of Her Record Contract If She Said Dr. Luke Didn’t Rape Her
Sigh. In yet another fucked up element to an already super fucked up story, Kesha has said that her lengthy and intense battle to be released from her recording contract with Sony Music could have come to an end recently as they offered to let her go scot-free… if only she recanted her claims that Dr. Luke raped her. Uhhhh, how about no? Writing on Instagram, Kesha exposed the bullshit she’s been through to let people know that there’s far more that goes on behind closed doors than is reported to the public (which, duh, but some people are thick-skulled). Obviously Kesha didn’t bite and refuses to back down about what happened to her just to make Dr. Luke or Sony’s life easier, and good for her. so. I got offered my freedom IF i were to lie. I would have to APOLOGIZE publicly and say that I never got raped. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS behind closed doors. I will not take back the TRUTH. I would rather let the truth ruin my career than lie for a monster ever again. A photo posted by Kesha (@iiswhoiis) on Apr 3, 2016 at 10:38am PDT Ugh, good for her for staying strong. There has to be some kind of justice here. The fact of the matter is, Sony is forcing her to work with her abuser. For what? Is money REALLY all that important? Let the girl go!
