Kesha has made a startling confession about her self-pleasure routine, revealing that she masturbates to gratitude meditations. The 39-year-old singer, who rose to fame in 2009 with her hit song "Tik Tok," has largely kept her romantic life private but recently opened up on the Call Her Daddy podcast.
When host Alex Cooper asked about reclaiming her sexuality, Kesha called the process a "miracle." She then stunned listeners by admitting her unusual method. Cooper suggested Kesha was lying, but the singer replied, "Don’t knock it till you try it."
Kesha described feeling "p***ed" after her recording contracts ended and said she now seeks as much pleasure as possible. "It’s been amazing. Literally, when I got my freedom, I was like, I think, you know, I’m p***ed about a lot of stuff, but one of the things is that like pleasure," she shared. "I keep coming back to pleasure. It is okay as a woman to feel pleasure in this world. When you go through things, pleasure is not like the number one neural pathway that your brain always goes to when you have survived things, and I had to reprogram that, and I do it every f***ing day and I’m not even embarrassed about it."
Gratitude meditation involves reflecting on things we are grateful for, often incorporating guided meditation, breathwork, and visualization. Kesha also shared another intimate detail that fans dubbed "unhinged." She declared, "I’m now mostly celibate, you know, except for when you’re in Italy,” clarifying she meant when she is in Italy herself.
Listeners found this relatable. User wyd_sammy1 posted on X, "Honestly, ‘celibate except for when I’m in Italy’ is the most relatable lifestyle goal I’ve ever heard." Empires_untold called it "the most unhinged geographical clause I’ve ever heard." Camii_26 added, "We’ve all been there queen."
Although currently single, Kesha said her "pu***" is manifesting "her king." She admitted dating people she "had no business dating," describing one as "smelling kind of like a Subway sandwich that had been sitting in the back of your car for a couple of days."
Kesha has previously identified as bisexual but later clarified, "I’m not gay. I’m not straight. I don’t know what I am. I love people…I refuse to be anything, really, except for open to it all." In an interview with Elle, she said dating in Los Angeles felt like "digging through the garbage" and recalled a guy who dumped her after she didn’t take him to a Taylor Swift party.
She emphasized self-love, saying, "I kept hearing people say, ‘I’m looking for The One.’ I kept waiting for somebody else to fill that space, and then I just stepped into it myself. You gotta be all those things to yourself – your own boyfriend, sugar daddy, rich husband, best friend, cheerleader. I started taking myself on vacations, buying myself six dozen roses, and taking myself for shopping sprees at Saint Laurent. Yes, I take myself on f***ing really bougie dates, like really celebrating the f*** out of myself. I was like, God, I am The One, though."
