To summarize it her new album will be a rock album, and will show a new side of vulnerability that she doesnt show to often. As well as that she will start recording this month.-- Jakeriederer ( talk) 21:02, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
I think it's time that Spandex on the distant horizon should get an article. We know its coming in May of 2012, and i have the picture and 3 confirmed songs of the album. Picture: http://www.flickr.com/photos/andyroo279/5535465183/lightbox/ Songs: Tease me, 31 seconds alone, Shots on the hood of my car. Idk how to do this myself anyway :( Kalestorm ( talk) 02:07, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
This is a false rumour, The album is not called Spandex on the Distant Horizon and the only possible song that is known to be on it is the stuff she is working with Wayne Coyne, hinted to be called "2012" and a confirmed track called Sex Toy (not confirmed to be on an album), and a rare demo known as "WooHoo" which samples Blur's Song 2.
Isn't WooHoo now BTR's property? Should that be mentioned? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.110.76.152 ( talk) 16:57, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

The article says: "with Animal debuting as the US's number-one album and producing two number-one singles, "Tik Tok" and "We R Who We R", and a string of top ten hits as well."
If I'm not mistaken, We R Who We R is not on Animal, but Cannibal. Right? 216.114.232.234 ( talk) 11:06, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Professional photographer Becky Sullivan snapped various images of Kesha at her Today Show performance of " Die Young". I uploaded two of the best ones (in my opinion), but there are at least a dozen in all. If anyone is interested, take a look through them and pick a better one. The watermark needs to be cropped out, but since the image is cc-by-sa 2.0 we can do that. Here they are: https://secure.flickr.com/photos/becky-sullivan/sets/72157632063139488/with/8203661679/ -- Thevampireashlee ( talk) 21:43, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
Ha, well that first one was the one I just played with - see File:Kesha Today Show Kneeling.jpg. It could be more closely cropped to "upper body" which would lose some of the distracting background, but also lose the "pose", and would chop off her hands, which spoils it a bit. Begoon talk 03:02, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
In the second one, the smartphone at bottom right means you'd need to "slice" through the guitar - which might be ok, I suppose (or leave the phone in). If you don't crop out the left part of the image and focus on her a bit more, though, she'll be very small at infobox size - and if you do crop it, you cut through her arm, and lose the point of the pointing "pose". Here's a rough crop: File:Kesha Today Show Pointing.jpg Begoon talk 03:06, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
You could also look through the pics in this old revision of the article: [2]. An editor added, then removed that gallery. I think he was right to remove it (per Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Image_galleries) - but maybe it helps in this discussion?

I've removed this article from the categories Bisexual musicians, Bisexual women, LGBT musicians from the United States, and LGBT rappers as Kesha's sexuality is rather ambiguous. There is in fact no mention of it in the body of the article nor has there been adequate discussion on the talk page (besides a small conversation back in 2010). In 2013, she said "I don't love just men. I love people. It's not about a gender" ( [3]); this is not self-identification as LGBT, and in 2010 she even said "I wouldn't say I’m gay or straight -– I don’t like labeling things anyway", which is all the more reason to exclude her from these categories. Headlines proclaiming Kesha as bisexual are just the product of a little sensationalism by the authors, because if you read them you'll find indefinite quotes such as the ones I just posted.
I do however think the article should still remain within the WikiProject LGBT studies scope as she has a recognizable presence in regards to LGBT topics. Scarce2 ( talk) 00:08, 28 March 2013 (UTC)

In the Awards section for Kesha it shows that she WON the Best Song in the World Music Awards with "Die Young". She hasn't won this award (yet). Could someone replace the WON with NOMINATED. Please and Thank You 76.30.172.233 ( talk) 09:06, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
Previously it made sense to not include information on them because there were no direct quotes from her that even acknowledged their existence, but she has since talked about the pictures in her own documentary, should they be mentioned?

I'm not sure what the correct way to fix this is, but the second paragraph of the summary at the top of the page says, "Kesha primarily draws inspiration from music of the 1980s; Madonna, Queen, and Beck have been cited as instrumental to her artistry." However, Beck is clearly a 90's artist -- his first major release, Mellow Gold was in 1993 and most of his big albums are from the late 1990s and earlier 2000's. I'm not entirely sure what should be done with the quote, though. 76.14.86.195 ( talk) 08:22, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

I need about 6-12 Wikipedians to get back to me because Kesha already has 5 articles here. Should we do it? Also, I think we should create a List of Awards and Nominations Received by Kesha, instead of just leaving it as a sub-articleon her page ...

I actually think the statement about her as "openly bisexual" should be removed since there appear to be a few issues with it. The only source I have for this is a statement in Seventeen magazine where she responded to a question about her sexuality with “I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.” There is also a tabloid story about her "dirty dancing" with a girl at a gay bar and a very ambiguous quote where she said "I'm looking for a boyfriend or girlfriend" while performing at an LGBT concert (any of these can be Googled and run down). To the contrary, there is a wealth of evidence that she predominantly (as far as I can tell exclusively) dates men, and speaks openly and descriptively about her hetero-sexual orientation and romantic history in interviews and song lyrics. In the spirit of her desire not to label people and the lack of (in my opinion) credible evidence here, shall we avoid applying this "label" to her? And perhaps, if deemed necessary, replace this with a more restrained interpretation of her response in the Seventeen magazine interview.
I see it as a disservice to LGBT activism (and feminism) that its most vocal supporters need to be labeled as "bisexual," especially in Kesha's case where the sources identifying her as such come of as sloppy and/or opportunistic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.228.129.194 ( talk) 17:29, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

I have to argue, File:Ke$ha Today Show 2012.jpg has much higher quality, with little to know obstructions and Kesha is much more identifiable than the present lead image. What do you guys think?-- GouramiWatcher (Gulp) 13:52, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
formerly stylized as Ke$ha
Does this mean what is stated, that she used to by stylised as "Ke$ha", or was it intended to say that she is "formally stylised as Ke$ha" (that is, that she is officially stylised in that form)? Skinsmoke ( talk) 20:48, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
It should be noted properly that Kesha will be joining the panel of Rising Star (as an "expert", not a judge as their influences will not affect the show's outcome, is dating Brad Ashenfelter and is reportedly working with Zedd (there are plenty of online sources). Kesha's promo image for Rising Star says that she has now sold 59 million records worldwide http://www.mtv.com/news/1835837/kesha-new-logo-rising-star/ . Also, the image for this article, while is a change, isn't as suitable as a lead image as the one prior to this as they were from the EXACT same time and place, and is a much clearer, nicer face-shot. A new, free image is bound to come up soon anyway, so until then, we should revert to that one. 81.107.103.92 ( talk) 18:06, 7 June 2014 (UTC)
I'm not so sure that I agree with this edit by Chasewc91. Kesha is pretty much a muscial artist and nothing else: any acting and talent show roles she's held are trivial in comparison to her musical career. Infobox musical artist seems like the most appropriate infobox for this article. Acalamari 08:14, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
Sorry for just now replying here Acalamari; I didn't see this discussion. I think that since the musical artist infobox can be added as a module to the main person infobox that it's unnecessary to only include a more restrictive infobox that provides less info. That's how I feel about any musical solo artist, regardless of how notable for what they are outside of music. The additional listings in the person infobox are also helpful; for instance, we can link to her mother who is notable, and more easily distinguish that she's from Nashville with a "home town" field instead of a more dubious "origin" one.
And 81.107.103.92, synthpop is currently the only musical genre that is cited for Kesha in the body of the article. If you know of any sources that describe her as a dance or electronica artist (though I doubt you will find any for the latter as the term generally doesn't apply to dance-pop singers), feel free to list them here and they can be added to the article/infobox. – Chase ( talk / contribs) 00:01, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

Please change German to Polish in the line below. The article that is a reference for this line is in Polish, and Kesha says that she is part Polish and that her great grandmother lived in Poland while under Russia rule. No mention of German. Other articles have mentioned her father maybe of German descent.
Her mother is of half German and half Hungarian descent (with her Hungarian side from Szentes). [8]
