KE$HA "TIK TOK" OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO!

The official music video for the new 'electro trash queen' (according to RollingStone) has just premiered! Check out the video in all it's amazingness below:

AMAZING. BOW! It was so fun and crazy and so so random and irrevereant like KE$HA herself! I love how she woke up in a random bathtub in a random house! Being a fan of hers since '07, this is sooooo KE$HA! I'm glad they aren't trying to change her, because if they would've, she wouldn't've budged. KE$HA's my homegirl and I'm glad to see her making songs and videos! Stay tuned for the BACKSTABBER viral video! Something tells me it's out soon!

FLO-RIDA RELEASES ANOTHER KE$HA SONG AS A SINGLE!

Rent-A-Rapper Flo-Rida is gearing up for the release of a new single from his 'R.O.O.T.S' album, and it's another 'featuring KE$HA' song. It's my favorite song off his album, and my love for KE$HA goes deep (she inspired the title of the blog), but after seeing these pics and videos from the video shot, I'm not so excited anymore.


I was hoping KE$HA would be in this, but last I heard, her schedule is full, so I guess she didn't have time. Shame, though, because the video would've been a MONSTER if she was in it. Trina looks good, though. Anyways, REQUEST KE$HA'S DEBUT SINGLE, "TiK ToK", ON YOUR LOCAL RADIO STATION.
