When Demi Lovato entered rehab she told the world it was because she had an eating disorder. This was despite the fact she had just gone off on a backup dancer with a beat down. Demi admitted later that she had a serious drug and alcohol problem. Of course it did take Demi years to admit that but she finally did. She stuck to that eating disorder story for quite some time.
Ke$ha checked into the same place but I doubt she will be able to stay for months on end like Demi did. It would be great if she could or would but she will feel a ton of pressure from her record label and management to hit the road and support Timber and the new record and make them some money. They will tell her that she can get better after she tours and then they will tell her she can get better after she records another record. It is a vicious cycle and record companies never want to let you off.
When you have the number 2 selling digital single of all time (Tik-Tok) the record company wants you out there and bringing in that gold. I really do hope Ke$ha gets better and listens to herself and the people closest to her.
I hope she gets better soon - it's good that she has recognised she has a problem, whatever it might really be - and hopefully just a month will be enough to set her on the straight and narrow. She did look a bit thinner in the Timber video but not to an alarming extent ...
ReplyDeleteI've always liked Ke$ha. Hope she gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteShould be some blinds about this getting revealed today.
ReplyDeleteIve always liked her too, she seems really genuine on her show and actually possesses some talent when she isn't using that stupid "Kesha voice"
ReplyDeleteI also like Kesha and wish her the best. I think she's got a great voice abd snappy songs.
ReplyDeleteI'm rooting for her, whatever it is. She is a beautiful young woman (when she's not all costumed) with a great voice. I like her from her show on MTV and I don't WANT her to have an ED by any means, but I hope that's all it is.
ReplyDeletegod save ke$ha now
ReplyDeleteamen
Oh dear. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteWasn't there a blind item for which she was the popular guess about a woman who was planning to seek media attention for significant weight loss that she intended to achieve via drug abuse, but instead would be presented to the media as the result of healthy living?
ReplyDeleteWhatever her reason let's not poo poo her reasons for seeking help. Bravo to her.
ReplyDeleteI didn't really have an opinion about her until my bestie and I watched a marathon of her show and we were both enchanted by her. Anyone that can get their annoying mother to wear a penis and balls suit onstage is ok in my book. I wish her much luck in her recovery!
ReplyDeleteI wish her well, but she's always seemed kind of crazy in a way that makes me think it might not all be drugs.
ReplyDeleteDidn't she say she has sex with a ghost?
Rehab isn't solely for drug use. Lovato had a drug problem, but also was bulimic, a cutter, and is bipolar. I believe rehab addressed those issues, not just the drug use. It is possible that she is there for rehabilitation due to an eating disorder.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with my own MH and I work in MH as well. It is RARE that a person only has ONE diagnosis. Actually, I quite literally don't know anybody -- friends, family, or clienys -- who JUST have anxiety or JUST have issues with alcohol, to name but two. Comorbidity is just the nature of the beast.
DeleteToo true...kind of like saying 'normal's a cycle on your washer' Proud of her for not hiding going & her statement about it was ah-mazing
DeleteWhile shes ob there for ger eating disorder maybe they will convince her drinking her pee isn't good for her either :(
ReplyDeleteDoes Ke$ha have the money for an extended stay? Where would she get it?
ReplyDeleteKisses and hugs to all suffering with MH issues. As someone with panic attacks, anxiety and nerve related IBS, I emphasize and wish us all well.
ReplyDeleteAnyone would get an eating disorder after the public body-shaming she got because of some pap pictures of her frolicking on the beach with a less-than-stellar ass. Kesha has endured more than her fair share of shit from the press and blogosphere. Personally, I love her and I'm sure she she'll get her demons under control, whatever they may be. It's nice to see so many caring comments for her here.
ReplyDeleteI've said it before and I'll say it again. Speaking from experience, an eating disorder IS an addiction, just like drugs and alcohol…except harder to recover from, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, Ke$ha
ReplyDeleteCan lazy be classified as an eating disorder?:-)
