Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[analievelyn]

either explicitly like FA ^

or in super small ways like liking her posts about the case/Dr. Luke...

Taylor gave her money for lawyer fees iirc..

who else?

Adele shouted her out at an award show, lot of producers said publicly they would work with her for free pre-rainbow (Jack Antonoff and Zedd). Lady Gaga supported her, and it ended up getting her wrapped up in the legal case, pretty sure Demi Lovato tweeted a lot about it and turned it into a fued with Taylor Swift. These are all off the top of my head.

maybe this doesn't count as a "real" celeb, but the first person that came to mind was the wrestler Melina tweeting a lot of supportive things about her.

I remember Ariana Grande, Wale, Zedd, Jack Antonoff. I know they were more artists but I can't remember.

Pink and Avril Lavigne both defended Kesha when Dr Luke sued her. Can't speak for Avril, but Pink has long hated Dr Luke and has publicly called him out

As a lone Avril stan, Avril said something to the effect of he didn't abuse her while making her 3rd album (even tho he kept the 21 yr old plied with alcohol and frat boy partied with her but that's neither her nor there), but that she would not work with him again. He was trying to sue Kesha saying he lost jobs & Avril commented, "I would not have hired you again."

Seems like the pop rock ladies who worked with him back then, like Avril, Pink, and Kelly, all had a bad experience. I'm happy they were able to break free from him and make the music they wanted without him.

yeah I remember watching the bts videos from Avril's 3rd album on which he was heavily featured and she was drunkkkkkkkk. like they looked like they were having fun to my 15yo self but I rewatched them in my 20s and it felt... weird.

i know charli xcx tweeted out support during her grammy performance, charli had some experiences with him too (not assault as far as we know, but he called her too ugly/fat for the industry)

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[saemcrh]

Charli needs to stop working with Kim Petras then (who willingly works with Dr Luke and has implied Kesha is a liar).

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[kashiyaek]

yeah, i don't really understand their dynamic in that regard cause they're really close friends but charli openly hates luke. just weird.

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

It shows she’s full of shit on the support front imo, it makes any support for Kesha completely meaningless if she’s BFF’s with someone who basically said Kesha is lying and defends Dr Luke.

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[marthasback]

OH Kelly Clarkson has been very supportive! She's supportive of Kesha and drags Dr. Luke whenever she gets a chance

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[zoaster_toaster]

Didn't Kelly have a terrible working experience with Dr Luke?

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[zoaster_toaster]

All the people mentioned in this thread and I know Adam Lambert is friends with her and tweeted his support for her.

Re: Celebs That Have Publicly/Privately Supported Kesha

[lolitalockheart]

I remember Lorde and Janelle Monae supporting her
