Ke$ha talks bi-sexuality & bullying in Seventeen's February 2013 issue



Kesha showed her softer side with some super cute kittens in the February issue of Seventeen, where she also had wise words for her animals — and revealed a pretty juicy secret about herself.

Rocking several different, diverse rock n’ roll, bohemian, flowery and just generally pretty looks, Kesha still looked like herself, which has always been super important to her… even when people don’t like what she’s doing. She admits in a behind-the-scenes video that she’s landed on worst dressed lists but that it doesn’t bug her, because it shows she’s doing her own thing.



“I used [negative comments] to motivate me then, and I still do,” she told the mag. “I remember every person who told me I couldn’t do something or that I was ugly or too fat. I have a ‘s— list’ — people from my past who have been soulless and judgmental. Even after I got through my awkward phase, got my braces off and figured out how to dress my body, people in the music business were like, ‘You’re never going to make it.’ I see them now and I’m like, ‘Ha!’ That’s one of the reasons I named my record ‘Warrior,’” she added. “You can be a victim and let that eat your soul, or you can say, You’re going on my list and I’m going to prove you wrong!”

First off, Kesha? Ugly? Fat? Are these people blind? She’s so cute! Still, she takes it in stride when people talk smack. “I’m very much into making fun of myself because other people do it so you have to be able to laugh at yourself,” she said. “The sooner you can laugh at yourself, the easier your life will be.”

That doesn’t mean she’s okay with outright bullying. In fact, she’s adamantly against it. “I’m all about standing up to gay/lesbian/transgender bullying, but it’s also about my little brother,” she said. “He’s 13 and he gets made fun of because he has a stutter. I just have zero tolerance for people making fun of others.”

Another reason K-Dollar Sign may be so against bullying of the LGBTQ community is because not only do they support her, but she identifies with them. She revealed, “I don’t love just men. I love people. It’s not about a gender. It’s just about the spirit that exudes from that other person you’re with.”




“I’m very much into making fun of myself because other people do it so you have to be able to laugh at yourself. The sooner you can laugh at yourself, the easier your life will be.”

I think in a way it's quite similar-- when girls write slash etc, it's frequently about grand romantic gestures and emotions and deep burning unspoken love-- a 'feminine' approach to love, acted out by male agents. However, I know for sure that lesbians also like slash, so it's a bit harder to say. I think the fact that complex characters are so dominantly male might be why slash happens so often.

hard to say though

I guess theres a reason why so many psychology papers are written about sex. I find slash weird because when I was younger I shipped people with me or women, I would have been sad had my crush been gay and I wouldnt have a chance.

lol I do ship slash. I've rarely had favourites on a tv show because I wanted to marry them or w/e, I had favourites because I liked the character best/identified with them. The most I'd want to do to most of my favs is give them a hug.

For it'd be more likely to be

I like/identify with character A. Character B is also attractive to me romantically. Therefore my favourite A is shipped with romantic interest B.

It results in all sorts of ships, not just slash though.
