PREVIEW

The Tik Tok singer posted a series of bikini snaps on Instagram on Sunday and shut down those who had been trying to shame her for her appearance. "I didn't think in 2024 people still body shamed but. i am so proud of my body," Kesha captioned the post. "She's been through a lot. she's torn her acl on stage and finished the show. she's held my f**king broken heart together. to those who think you're shaming me, you're actually making me feel very powerful (sic)." Addressing the body-shamers directly, Kesha concluded, "So, to you, i hope you one day feel whole enough to not tear other women down. in the mean time, hate me harder b**ch (muscle emoji)." The 37-year-old was forced to postpone several shows in early 2018 after she tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her knee when she suffered a fall during a performance in Dubai. She had to reschedule the shows to recover from surgery. Kesha's defiant post comes days after she released Joyride, her first single as an independent artist, on 4 July to coincide with America's Independence Day. She parted ways with Dr. Luke's Kemosabe Records in December 2023, months after settling her nine-year legal battle with the record producer that June. "MY FIRST SONG AS A FREE WOMAN ON MY RECORD LABEL... IM SOBBING THANK UUUU FOR THE SUPPORT I JUST CANT EVEN (sic),".
