And this is why I think I have better than expected odds of hooking up with Ke$ha if I ran into her on the streets of LA…. She can fetishize my beard anytime and I’d love to take a ride in her gold trans am…
Pop star/Dr. Teeth impersonator Ke$ha has a reality show on MTV calledMy Crazy Beautiful Life. It is not beautiful, nor is it particularly crazy in the scheme of reality TV, but I do find her sexual frankness to be radical for a woman in her field.
While female sexuality in pop has been pronounced for decades, it has translated to the real lives and/or personas of its sources in vaguely fictive terms (see Lil’ Kim), in serial monogamy (see Madonna) or with qualification (Pink, whose most recent album features the song “Slut Like You,” explained to Glamour that she’s in fact a “reformed slut“). Ke$ha, who snarls lyrics like, “Don’t be a little bitch with your chit chat Just show me where your dick’s at,” and writes songs about her vagina (“Wham bam, thank you, man / Get inside my fucking gold Trans-Am”) is, at a minimum, committed to giving the illusion that she lives as she sings/whine-raps. Though given the continued cultural disdain for female promiscuity and her rock-star status, there’s good reason to believe that she’s harvesting all the dick that she brags about.
