Kesha has released 4 albums and has had mixed success. As one would expect with musical artists she has been around the ringer. She checked in to rehab, for an eating disorder, has had legal issues, and is open about her sexuality. Stating she doesn’t just love men, she loves people. It’s not about gender.

Kesha has also stated that she views God as ” Nature and space and energy and the universe”. My own interpretation of spirituality isn/t important because we all have our own. What matters is that I have something greater than me as an individual that helps bring me peace.
