Ke$ha Respects Britney Spears, Apologizes to Justin Bieber

Ke$ha clears up rumors that she dissed Britney Spears in a new song in this interview with the So You Think You Can Dance Australia team on Monday (March 22).

A leaked song called “Styrofoam” featuring K$, 25, appeared online recently and features the lyric “In ten years, Britney Spears … Britney, who?”

“Just to clarify, I didn’t write that bit,” K$ shared, “and that was from when I was fifteen – and there is a reason that song’s not on my record. I have to admit now I ever regret even singing that because I have mad respect for her.”

Ke$ha also took to her Twitter to apologize to Justin Bieber for a joke she made about him in Maxim. She wrote, “dear justin b i am so sorry if my bad joke has hurt your feelings.u r obviously so talented and i would never mean to offend u. i think u r rad.”
