Kesha (formerly Ke$ha) has broken her silence after a judge denied her request to have her record contract with Dr. Luke and Sony dismissed. On Tuesday, February 23, she took to Instagram to thank fans for their outpouring support amid her legal battle with the music producer.
"I am beyond words in gratitude. thank you is not enough but it is all I have. a million times over and forever thank you," she posted along with a photo of her looking somber. She continued, "the support I have received has left my face swollen from tears. I love you all so much. a statement too large for this format is coming...."
Kesha mentioned in a lawsuit which she filed in 2014 that Luke sexually assaulted her. The music producer has repeatedly denied the accusation though. "I didn't rape Kesha and I have never had sex with her," he wrote on Twitter on Monday. He additionally pointed out at an article about Kesha's 2011 testimony in which she denied date rape by the producer.
Now, portions of Kesha's testimony taken from a deposition in 2011 have leaked online. At the time, a manager sued both Kesha and Luke. Kesha and her mom were asked under oath about comments her mom allegedly made against Luke.
In the edited video obtained by TMZ, Kesha flatly denied that she ever had "an intimate relationship" with Luke, and her mom denied that she was ever told Luke "had had a sexual relationship of any kind with" her daughter or slipped Kesha a date rape drug.
