Kesha Sends Heartfelt Message To Fans After Dr Luke Trial Ends image

The American Singer Kesha Rose Sebert, known as Kesha is celebrating being free from her legal battle with producer Dr. Luke after nearly a decade.
Last week, the legal battle between Kesha and Dr Luke, whose real name is Lukasz Gottwald, has just ended. The two decided to settle the defamation lawsuit which was set to take place in July after an appeals court made it more difficult for Dr. Luke to prove Kesha intentionally defamed him with allegations of sexual assault.
Kesha filed a lawsuit against the producer in 2014, alleging he drugged and raped her nine years earlier and psychologically tormented her throughout their working relationship. She claimed he harassed her about her weight, denigrated her voice and lorded his power over her career.
Dr Luke responded to the claims with his defamation lawsuit, claiming she made "completely untrue and deeply hurtful" claims to tarnish him and get out of her record contract.
Earlier in the case, Kesha was ordered to pay Dr Luke more than $373,000 in interest on royalties she paid him years late.


Kesha and Dr Luke shared their final remarks on the matter in a joint statement shared on social media. "Only God knows what happened that night. As I have always said, I cannot recount everything that happened," the singer said. "I am looking forward to closing the door on this chapter of my life and beginning a new one. I wish nothing but peace to all parties involved," Kesha said.


Dr Luke's statement said, "While I appreciate Kesha again acknowledging that she cannot recount what happened that night in 2005, I am absolutely certain that nothing happened. I never drugged or assaulted her and would never do that to anyone."
He added, "For the sake of my family, I have vigorously fought to clear my name for nearly 10 years. It is time for me to put this difficult matter behind me and move on with my life. I wish Kesha well."
Kesha share a heartfelt message with her fanbase, the Animals, and thanked them for their continues support.
"I am humbled and in awe of the support and love y’all have given me. You have held me and carried me through the past 9 years, "she wrote on Tuesday, June 17th, "I am so full of light and excitement for the beautiful things to come, for shows to play, and art to make to share with you all."
Kesha concluded her post by quoting her song from her new album Gag Order. "Animals, I don’t need much but there’s one thing I can’t lose. All I need is you," she said, taking a line from "All I Need Is You."
