The 29-year-old is currently locked in a legal battle with her record label as she fights to be released from her contract over allegations that she was sexually assaulted by record producer Dr Luke.

An appeal, which she launched against a court decision that she must remain in her contract with the record company, was declined earlier this month.

"Although Luke's alleged actions were directed to Kesha, who is a female, her claims do not allege that Luke harboured animus toward women or was motivated by gender animus when he allegedly behaved violently toward Kesha. Every rape is not a gender-motivated hate crime," the judge said at the hearing.

Meanwhile, Kesha has been asked to testify under oath about the allegations she has made against the 42-year-old record producer.
