While the defamation lawsuit brought against Taylor Swift by David Mueller has been dismissed, the pop icon is still in court thanks to her countersuit. (Note: she is suing Mueller for $1, claiming he grabbed her butt without consent.)
Now, Kesha has voiced her public support for Swift, tweeting:
. @taylorswift13 i support you always, and especially right now and admire your strength and fearlessness. truth is always the answer.August 14, 2017
Swift took the witness stand last week, recounting the "despicable, and horrifying, and shocking" encounter, during which she alleges that Mueller "stayed attached to my bare ass-cheek as I lurched away from him."
For her part, Kesha has been involved in an extremely long legal battle with Dr. Luke, who she's accused of sexual assault. It's vital that women stand together against male aggressors, so thank you Kesha for speaking up in support of Swift.
