Kelly Clarkson: 'I Was Blackmailed Into Working With Demeaning Dr. Luke'

Last month the world was left stunned when a court ruled that Kesha must remain on her contract with Sony Music and producer Dr. Luke despite the singer alleging that Dr. Luke had emotionally abused and raped her.

Stars, including Lady Gaga, rallied around Kesha with many coming forward with their own negative experiences of working with the producer, and now Kelly Clarkson has claimed that she was “blackmailed” into working with him.


Although the American Idol star said that she didn’t know anything about Kesha’s personal situation, she did say that she had first-hand experience with Dr. Luke that showed he is “not a good person”.

Speaking on Australia’s KIIS 106.5 Kelly explained: “I’ll be honest about the guy, but I don’t know that situation. He’s not a good person, to me. We’ve clashed. He’s difficult to work with, he’s kind of demeaning.
