| | Kesha's producer Dr. Luke complains about her weight & diet in leaked emails (update) | | Added 7 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Last year, Kesha suffered a series of legal setbacks while trying to escape from her contract with Sony under producer Dr. Luke. Kesha alleged that Dr. Luke mentally and physically abused her, drugged her and sexually assaulted her. Under the terms of her ongoing contract, Kesha was being made to continue working for Sony and her abuser, Dr. Luke. She’s continuing her court case in New York and has issued an appeal, although she has dropped a civil case in California against Dr. Luke. In new court papers, Kesha’s lawyer includes emails from Dr. Luke to Kesha’s manager in which Dr. Luke claims Kesha’s weight is a liability for her career, tries to complain about her breaking a juice fast, and is extremely petty about some lyric changes she suggests. Kesha has continued her career, but she’s had to make major changes to her music to avoid violating her contract with Sony.
A year after a Manhattan judge ruled that Kesha couldn?t walk away from her exclusive recording contract with Sony and Dr. Luke despite claims that he?d raped her and called her a ?fat f?king refrigerator,? she?s asking the jurist to reconsider.
Kesha wants to ?be free from her abuser and rebuild her physical, emotional, and mental health,? her attorney writes in court papers filed this week.
Dr. Luke has denied the claims.
But newly released emails between Dr. Luke and Kesha?s manager Monica Cornia give credence to the performer?s claims that the producer was heartless about her eating disorder.
?Nobody was calling anybody out,? Dr. Luke writes to Cornia at 2:11 a.m. on June 28, 2012, according to a copy of the email.
?We were having a discussion on how she can be more disciplined with her diet. there have been many times we have all witnessed her breaking her diet plan. this perticular [sic] time ? it happened to be diet coke and turkey while on an all juice fast,? the producer gripes.
Cornia asks him to be more supportive because she?s ?a human and not a machine,? then adds, ?if she were a machine that would be way cool and we could do whatever we want.?
Dr. Luke also reveals in an earlier message that ?A list songwriters and producers are reluctant to give Kesha their songs because of her weight.?
In a May 2012 email exchange between Cornia, Kesha and other managers, Cornia discusses a fight between the singer and her producer over lyrics for what would become her hot single ?Crazy Kids.?
In one email, Cornia says Dr. Luke wanted the phrase, ?You see us in the club sip sippin bub,? while Kesha preferred, ?You see us in the streets we da we da freaks,? because she doesn?t go to clubs.
?I don?t give a s?t what you want. If you were smart you would go in and sing it,? Dr. Luke allegedly told Kesha, according to Cornia.
Cornia adds that Kesha tried to settle the spat with Dr. Luke, but ?didn?t feel comfortable talking to him? in the studio.
?He refused to come downstairs (?she wears the pants in MY house??) so we left,? Cornia writes, again quoting Dr. Luke.

So Dr. Luke is so controlling that he’s complaining to Kesha’s manager that she dared eat a little turkey and drink some diet Coke while she was on a juice fast. He’s so controlling that he considers it emasculating to let her change one single line in a song. He’s so controlling that he claims that Kesha isn’t getting work because of her weight. (Which is doubtful, he’s likely using that as an excuse.) Keep in mind that this isn’t just sh-t talk in the studio (which would be bad enough) he’s actually writing these things to Kesha’s manager. Last year it came out that the judge assigned to Kesha’s case, who threw out Kesha’s suit against Sony, is married to a lawyer for Sony. I hope that this appeal is successful for her and/or that another judge is put on the case. She’s gone through so much.
Update: Dr. Luke’s team has responded to these emails, and they claim that they’re taken out of context, are misleading and that Kesha was the one concerned about her weight. This is exactly how I would expect an abuser to respond.
Kesha and her attorneys continue to mislead by refusing to disclose the larger record of evidence showing the bad faith of Kesha Sebert and her representatives which is greatly damaging to them. It also shows the tremendous support that Dr. Luke provided Kesha regarding artistic and personal issues, including Kesha?s own concerns over her weight.
Rather than agree to a thorough disclosure, Kesha and her representatives improperly publicized, without Court permission, three out-of-context emails which do not present the full picture regarding the events they concern. For example, these emails do not show that the lyrics of ?Crazy Kids? were, in fact, rewritten at Kesha?s request. Any claim by Kesha to the contrary is deceiving the public ? just like her other meritless claims of wrongdoing by Dr. Luke.
Dr. Luke looks forward to full vindication in Court.

Scarlett Johansson is this month?s Playboy interview, and I actually enjoyed it. I didn?t read all of it because, hello, it?s crazy long and I don?t care about Scarlett that much. But I read most of it and skimmed the rest. They must have conducted the interview well before Scarlett and Romain announced their split, because she refers to her ?husband? a few times. Overall though, it seems more like she?s been living as a single mother for a while, and her daughter Rose just stays with her while Romain does whatever. There?s a lot of information in here, most of which I won?t get into, but here are the biggest reveals and highlights (you can read the full piece here):
On the controversy of The Ghost in the Shell and playing a character that could have gone to a Japanese actress: ?Totally. I think the conversation about diversity in Hollywood is an important one and one that we should be having. My character has the unique experience of being a person whose human brain has been put into what was essentially a synthetic robotic body. I guess I always thought the character was a universal one, in the sense that she has no identity, and the heart of this story is her search for an identity. I hope that whatever questions people have about my casting in this film will be answered by actually seeing the movie. It?s hard to say, because you haven?t seen the movie yet, and there?s a part of it that I don?t want to talk about because it?s the turning point of the movie, but I think it answers the question for the audience as to who I am, who I was and what my true identity is, and it has nothing to do with how my character looks or how you see me.
Being able to be vulnerable & humble: ?It?s something Barack Obama has?humility. It?s such a lovely quality. There are a lot of things about him that will be missed, but humility is such an important part of being successful at what you do?.I actually think it will become very apparent that a leader cannot be successful if they don?t have that?if they?re not able to be vulnerable, curious, compassionate, to have that kind of humility. I don?t think you can lead in any field without having those qualities. That?s what makes a leader, I think: the ability to learn from mistakes and to have compassion for your fellow man.
How she feels post-election: ?You know, it?s funny. I had dinner with Woody Allen right after the election, so it was in November. We were both like, ?Okay, the election. That?s our topic before we get deep into what the meaning of life is.? And I said, ?Please don?t tell me you?re one of those people who was like, ?I told you so.? Please don?t tell me that.? And he was like, ?Honestly, I was shocked. I would have thought that he would not have won one state.? And I thought, Okay, well, if Woody felt that way, it makes me feel better about being as ignorant as I was, because I literally?I mean, it was a complete and utter shock.?
Her Election Day experience: ?I had a very strange experience voting. I took my kid with me, and I was like, ?Kid, we got a female president, which is pretty exciting. And it?s Hillary Clinton; that?s also cool, and we?re good.? Then I got on a plane to Hong Kong, which is a 16-hour flight. I had two glasses of wine and passed out. I woke up 10 hours later, and the stewardess was like, ?Excuse me, Miss, would you like to know the election results?? I looked at her and said, ?Well, I know it?s?okay, what? Give me the news. Let me have it. What is it? I think I know it?s Clinton.? And she was like, ?No, it?s actually Trump.? I thought, This is a Twilight Zone episode. I mean, I?m shuttling through the air at 30,000 feet. The whole cabin is dark, my brother is passed out, and I tap him on the shoulder?he was a field organizer for Obama; he?s very political?and I say, ?Hunter, wake up, wake up!? He was like, ?What?? I said, ?Trump won.? He was like, ?Oh, stop it.? God, he got so drunk when we landed in Hong Kong. This morning I was listening to NPR, and I have these moments when it still hits me, the weight of it.
She?s said before that she isn?t sure humans are designed to be monogamous. ?Well, with every gain there?s a loss, right? So that?s a loss. You have to choose a path. I think the idea of marriage is very romantic; it?s a beautiful idea, and the practice of it can be a very beautiful thing. I don?t think it?s natural to be a monogamous person. I might be skewered for that, but I think it?s work. It?s a lot of work. And the fact that it is such work for so many people?for everyone?the fact of that proves that it is not a natural thing. It?s something I have a lot of respect for and have participated in, but I think it definitely goes against some instinct to look beyond.?
On marriage in general. ?I think marriage initially involves a lot of people who have nothing to do with your relationship, because it?s a legally binding contract, and that has a weight to it. Being married is different than not being married, and anybody who tells you that it?s the same is lying. It changes things. I have friends who were together for 10 years and then decided to get married, and I?ll ask them on their wedding day or right after if it?s different, and it always is. It is. It?s a beautiful responsibility, but it?s a responsibility.

What do you think about Scarlett?s anti-monogamy talk? The thing is, I don?t think she?s anti-monogamy, I think she?s just trying to be realistic and self-aware? Like, I appreciate that she?s not trying to sell herself as Little Miss Monogamy or Senora Pure Thoughts. She?s had two marriages go down the tubes, for a variety of reasons, and one of those reasons might be that she fools around. She?s not saying people are incapable of being with only one person – she?s saying it?s a lot of work and some/many people fail at it. As for her political talk? the most controversial thing is that she was having dinner with Woody Allen post-election. Ew.
