Celebrities Kesha, Birthday: 1 March 1987, Los Angeles, California, USA

My mother taught me how to write.

It's about time that society accepts people for who they are.

My band and I, we cover our bodies in hairspray and glitter. We use the hairspray to make sure the glitter sticks. Show less «

I put on the best live show, the absolute best live show I can possibly can.

My makeup is usually left over from the night before.

I try to get in quiet time and book time, but really, the only time I ever get that is when I'm on an airplane - I have a fear of flying, but I actually love flying because it's the only time I can sleep, and it's the only time I get to read. Show less «

Of course there are certain things that get to me, but I try and lead by example and show people that, especially with haters, that you should just ignore them. Show less «

I deal with haters on a daily basis.

I do have a stylist who helps me shop, because I don't have time to shop.

It can bum you out when your intentions aren't, like, translated properly.

I could party in a cardboard box with people who are funny and don't care. For me, it's really about who I surround myself with, so I just try to always be with hilarious people. Show less «

All men that date me have to know that their name may end up in a pop song.

I've always been loud and obnoxious and sneaking my way into things, and so I feel like I've snuck my way onto the Lollapalooza lineup, and I'm going to sneak my way into whatever else I get to do. Show less «

You have to have a sense of humor about life to get through it.

I embrace the imperfections and celebrate them.

Every weird thing about you is beautiful and makes life interesting.

You really can't stereotype people or put them in boxes, it's unfair.

I'm pretty sure that I was JFK in my past life.

It is so fascinating that someone can commit their whole entire lifestyle to being such a fantastic woman when I'm such a bum about it. Show less «

I don't want to treat my fans like they are stupid.

I love it when people send me body parts.

I think people should give in to what they feel like doing at the time and be a raw animal.

I wouldn't have a No. 1 record or song if I wasn't a hardworking person.

Rap in general has never been my steez, but I like it.

Sometimes it is hard to sing and dance at the same time, but I would rather be off and be real and genuine about it to my fans. Show less «

I'm really fun. I'm ridiculously fun. I hope I'm infectiously fun.

I do destroy men on a weekly basis. It's like a hobby. I'm like a praying mantis.

Be yourself. Unapologetically.

I don't get embarrassed.

I know that I can sing. That's the reason I started playing music when I was twelve years old.

I'm responsible.

I have haters. I have so many haters.

Just because I'm sassy and have a mouth on me doesn't mean I'm coming from a negative place.

I love wearing the exact same thing all the time because I think it makes you like a cartoon character. They always wear the same outfit and everybody always remembers them for it, so I feel like I should do the same thing. Show less «

I do think I have a rebellious, metal-loving rock chick inside of me.

I understand I'm supposed to be feminine and dainty, but I'm not. There are two sides to the coin. People are more impressed with things that I do because they almost treat you as if you're handicapped if you're a woman... people can be impressed that I can play a few chords on the guitar.

I hope to bring much more attention to important issues and change for issues and practices that are harming animals. Show less «

I want to reconnect to my animal life.

There is no correlation between happiness and amounts of money.

I love country music, blues, and punk, and one day I might make those kinds of records.

I'm not saying I'm the perfect role model. But I'm honest. Period.

I played saxophone and trumpet. Pretty nerdy.

I think if you are going to be a singer, you should sing. If you are going to be a dancer, you should dance. If you are going to do a combination of the two, you should make it very clear when you are singing and very clear when you are dancing. Show less «

My music is fun, kind of cheeky.

I plan on making a lot more records, and hopefully one of them will be Grammy worthy.

My show is a sensory assault... in a very brief manner - the show is only 25 minutes long.

I don't wear a lot of high heels.

I do love country music.

You never know what an artist is going to create next.

I am a huge fan of the transgender community.

I am so not a proper, good female. I can't dance in high heels and I'm just so not girly, but then I see these men with these banging bodies, dancing in heels, singing, and having so much fun with so much make-up on. That makes me honestly want to be a better woman. Show less «

I love creepy old dudes. I love that they have so much self-confidence, despite having no evidence whatsoever to back it up. Show less «

I'm a singer and a writer first. I started to rap by accident, being playful.

I don't have the best body in the world, but I know for a fact that I have a really good voice.

I've done the country, done the pop-rock, done the super-hard electro.

I was very studious.

Society has taught us to suppress certain things and not do certain things.

I wanted to make youthful, irreverent anthems. Parents might not get it, but kids would.

I'm just very amused by five-year-old humor.

What I'm doing is art - it's low-brow art but there's a magic in that.

I've always been into bearded dudes.

I never want to be pretentious.

I don't want young people to think they can't make a difference because they don't have money.

I write about what I'm going through.

I think there's a good pop song in pretty much anything.

I'm not saying I look cool, but every single time I go onstage, it is a fail if I don't feel like I'm going to pass out at least twice. Show less «

I want a pig. I want a pig on a leash. A baby pig on a leash.

If you want to be a legitimate artist, it's more important what you say no to.

I just think that gay men have much better taste than any straight man I have met. I have never gotten any grief about having a good time, being unapologetic, and irreverent from a gay man. Show less «

I like vintage a lot.

You don't have to carry a designer bag that costs more than a car to look cool.

Eventually, I would love to be on my deathbed and looked at as an icon. Right now I'm still at the baby stages of my career. But that is the goal. Show less «

A friend of mine has a big farm in the desert, and she picks up feathers and roadkill for me, then makes it into clothes. I think it's cool to wear roadkill. If I died and somebody wanted to wear my teeth around their neck to VMAs, I'd feel honored. Show less «

I just like playing with makeup and clothes - so I really don't feel like there are rules, and if there are rules, then I think it's up to you to break them. Show less «

What I'm bringing to the pop table is that I'm not pretentious.

Glitter is my makeup of choice.

I don't go to clubs.

I'm over dudes trying to look like they're in boy bands.

I went through awkward, chubby, total weirdo phases.
