ITS ALL ABOUT THE $

Is it all an act, ore is this really a new dirtier, trashier form of Madonna/Lady Gaga in the body of the 22 year old Ke$ha? Her style reminds us a bit of Madonna back in 1982, but it’s not all about looks and image. No Ke$ha has been working for six year on her debute album. Wring all the songs herself and got help from producer Max Martin, The man behind the begin success of Britney Spears. But unlike Spears Ke$ha is not a pure, innocent and a virgin. She is a skunk and everyone has to know it. At the moment she is outselling Lady Gaga with the American ITune’s. Mark my words… we will hear a lot more of KE$HA. But who is this girl? Here a small update….

She later lived in a shared house in Laurel Canyon where the Eagles recorded Hotel California and at one point had lived out of her gold 1978 Trans Am. Kesha decided that she wanted Prince to produce her music, so she found and snuck into his Beverly Hills home.
