Dr. Luke Hits Back At Kesha After She Revealed She Was Offered Freedom If She Apologised

Dr Luke has branded Kesha's claims she was offered her "freedom" in exchange for saying she lied about him sexually abusing her as a "publicity stunt".

Kesha revealed on Instagram that she would be released from her exclusive deal with the producer and Sony Music if she made a public apology.

Now Dr Luke has responded, insisting her legal battle has been all about "personal enrichment".

A spokesperson for the producer - whose real name is Lukasz Gottwald - said in a statement to Rolling Stone magazine: "The Court repeatedly stated Kesha is already free to record without Dr. Luke, and that she had not presented any facts supporting her claims.

"That's because all the evidence - including Kesha's own videotaped sworn testimony - show her allegations are false.

"The only thing Kesha is not free to do is to continue to lie about Dr. Luke through publicity stunts and outrageous smears, ignoring the fact that by her own free will she went to work and entered into new contracts with Dr. Luke years after this 'incident' supposedly happened.

"Her goal all along has been solely personal enrichment by seeking to break contracts that brought her success and millions so she can enter into more lucrative ones. We look forward to our day in court holding Kesha accountable for her lies."

Kesha insisted she would rather her career be over than withdraw her allegations.

Dr. Luke has repeatedly denied the allegations against him.
