Fans love to see Kesha share her raw, authentic self with them, especially in her music. However, her recent photoshoot with Playboy has really attracted the attention of her fans. On Tuesday, she shared a photo that featured her stretched out in a giant bed made to resemble a clamshell.
Only bikini bottoms are clearly visible in the shot, leading some to suspect that she ditched her bikini top given the artful placement of her arm.
“In your dreams,” she wrote in the caption.

Even though it’s only been a year since she put out Gag Order, fans are anxious to hear Kesha’s “new” sound following the conclusion of her tumultuous legal battle with Dr. Luke.
“Finally Kesha is getting the flowers she deserves... girl you've been through SO much. Thank you for letting us support you and be a part of your healing journey,” one fan commented. “We will always adore you and you'll always be a legend to the whole world, not even just the pop scene! Everyone knows you and loves you.”
“It’s giving mermaid goddess washed on land to bless us all with her melodies and beauty,” another follower wrote.
A third fan agreed, writing, “It’s definitely feeling like a mermaid goddess or giving off those vibes.”

Although the “TiK ToK” singer doesn’t usually name names, she did share who inspired this song in a teaser video for the track. “Thanks to my idiot ex,” she wrote. “U inspired my best song yet.” Zhone and Madison Love are both credited as co-writers on the song.
In the song, she sings, “You should pay me for all the hours/ That I let you in the presence of my power/ You had potential, but potential doesn't matter/ I'm already long gone.”
Both “Delusional” and “Joyride” have been released by her independent label, Kesha Records. Both songs are expected to appear on her sixth album, although she has yet to share a title or a release date.

While discussing her new music with Papermagazine in July, she said, “This is the first album I'm making where I'm 100% in control of everything. It feels like it’s my first album. It feels divine; it feels like it stands for a lot. It’s really beautiful, and I cannot wait to share it. It’s maybe the most beautiful time of my entire life!”
She echoed those statements in June 2023, when she spoke to Peoplemagazine about creating a tour for her Gag Order album. At that time, she said that she was “happier than ever” while preparing to go on tour.
She Wanted Gag Order To Balance Celebration With Vulnerability

While discussing her fifth studio album, Kesha told the publication that she wanted “to strip back everything and really bare my soul.”
It's a terrifying action to know that you're going to produce something for public consumption that's going to be the most vulnerable version of yourself,” she continued. “But I made that commitment to myself, and I think the show will echo what the album does and have moments of extreme joy and celebration, counterbalanced with moments of extreme, raw vulnerability.”
She also explained that she was working on her mental health by trying to meditate every day, by doing Pilates and yoga, and by trying to work out a couple of times a week.
“But I think the most important thing is actually, more so than any of that stuff, being gentle to myself and giving myself the same love that I give to other people,” she explained. “I realize that sometimes I'm so mean to myself, and it's so horrible. I would never talk to somebody else the way I talk to myself, and I've just really been working on being gentle on myself.”
