Dr. Luke's Team Issues Statement Following News of Kesha Accusing Dr. Luke of Raping Katy Perry in Text to Lady Gaga

Dr. Luke is speaking out after Kesha reportedly accused the producer of raping Katy Perry in a text she sent to Lady Gaga, which was revealed in New York court documents.

The statement, sent to Just Jared from Dr. Luke‘s legal team on Wednesday (June 13), addresses this allegation.

“Katy Perry herself confirmed that Dr. Luke did not rape her. Kesha‘s accusation to the contrary-just like her other outrageous lies about Dr. Luke – is baseless and irresponsible, and it is disrespectful to both Katy Perry and Dr. Luke. In his defamation lawsuit against Kesha, Dr. Luke seeks damages for the harm caused by these malicious falsehoods.”
