Why Kesha Refuses to Wallow in 'Tragedy' Amid Dr. Luke Legal Battle

In 2014, the 32-year-old pop star sued the music producer for alleged sexual assault and battery and also sought to invalidate her recording contracts with him. He denied her claims and filed a $40 million, claiming her accusations were just an attempt to release her from her contract with his Kemosabe label. In 2016, she dropped her sexual misconduct case.

"I have given myself permission to grab myself by the balls again and be, 'This is who I am, a happy person,'" Kesha toldin the U.K., in an interview published in the outlet's January 2020 issue."As long as I stay in the present moment I'm usually good. As soon as I think about the future, the past, it's not good.""There are certain things in life," she told."That you may never get over. But. I don't have to sit in my tragedy.

Amid their legal battle, Kesha has continued to record and release new music, with Luke's approval but without working directly with him, and is set to drop a new album, Kesha said the people she chooses to work with have"become some of my closest friends and most of them are men." "People can change," she said."I'm not speaking about sexual assault in this moment, I want to be clear, I'm just saying change is possible. Learn from mistakes you have made, and know it's not OK to treat people a certain way. And also know it's OK to stand up and say, 'I'm not OK with being treated a certain way.'"

Dr. Luke Accuses Kesha's Former Lawyer of Lying Over Court DocsThe last time I recall hearing about Dr. Luke was all the way back in January, when Lady Gaga reiterated her support for Kesha in an unsealed deposition. Kesha, as you may remember, accused Dr. Luke (real name Lukasz Gottwald) of sexual and emotional abuse including rape, and filed a suit against him in 2014. He countersued for defamation, and their legal battle continues. Kesha’s request to be dropped from Luke’s label, Kemosabe, was also denied. Now, there’s this: according to Page Six, Dr. Luke has requested that a judge sanction Kesha’s former lawyer Mark Geragos because, he claims, Geragos lied during a 2017 court battle. (Kesha split ways with the attorney in 2016.)
