So Ke$ha has finally spoken out about the controversial (and cryptic) statement she tweeted a few days ago in which claimed she was “forced” to sing “Die Young” after it was pulled from radio following the Sandy Hook tragedy. Turns out she was being overly dramatic at the time due to her overwhelming emotions and she was never “forced” to sing the lyrics that she wrote herself. (No fucking duh!) Instead she says she had concerns about the lyrics. Here is the full statement…
“After such a tragic event I was feeling a lot of emotion and sadness when I said I was forced to sing some of the lyrics to Die Young. Forced is not the right word. I did have some concerns about the phrase “die young” in the chorus when we were writing the lyrics especially because so many of my fans are young and that’s one reason why I wrote so many versions of this song. But the point of the song is the importance of living every day to the fullest and staying young at heart, and these are things I truly believe.”
Well… There you have it. That solves that (not so) intriguing mystery!

In other words she lied.. there is no clarification there.. she said one thing and it wasnt true.. using the tragedy as an excuse to lie is disgusting on her part..
