Kesha and Dr. Luke Settle Decade-Long Defamation Battle.

Kesha and her former producer Dr. Luke have settled their legal battle that began in 2014, with Kesha alleging she was drugged and sexually assaulted and wanting out of her recording agreement, while Dr. Luke maintained the accusation was false and sued for defamation and breach of contract. The terms of the settlement have not been made public, but both parties have posted statements on Instagram. Dr. Luke denies the allegations and wishes Kesha well, while Kesha is looking forward to closing this chapter of her life. The defamation claim was headed to trial in New York, but with the settlement, the trial will not proceed.
