Kesha Rose Sebert, born March 1, 1987 in Los Angeles, is an American singer-songwriter, rapper, and actress. She first gained major attention in 2009 for her uncredited feature on Flo Rida’s Right Round, and then a global smash with her debut solo single TiK ToK, which became the best-selling digital track of 2010.
Her debut album Animal and follow-up EP Cannibal spawned a string of hits, followed by acclaimed albums Warrior (2012), Rainbow (2017), and High Road (2020). In 2023, after a long legal battle with producer Dr. Luke, she gained full control over her art.
Her final project under major-label terms, Gag Order (2023), was followed by her independent debut single Joyride under her own label, Kesha Records, in 2024. On July 4, 2025, she released her sixth studio album . (Period), supported by singles including “Yippee‑Ki‑Yay” (feat. T‑Pain), “Boy Crazy”, and “Delusional”. The record blends pop, country-pop, hip-hop, disco, and experimental tones, marking a celebratory return to form and personal liberation.
Kesha launched her The Tits Out Tour in July 2025 alongside The Scissor Sisters and Slayyyter, including landmark shows at Madison Square Garden. The performances combine theatrical visuals, symbolic self-reclamation, and emotional renditions of classics like “Praying.” Despite past struggles, she now embraces artistic freedom and renewed confidence, reaffirming her impact on modern pop.
