* [[Europop]]: Although it's often discussed on a certain group of British radio stations, [[Your Mileage May Vary|your opinion]] '''[[Your Mileage May Vary|will]]''' [[Your Mileage May Vary|differ]].
* [[Era Specific Personality]]: Before finding mainstream success with her auto-tuned party music, She was known as 'Kesha Sebert', who's music had a distinct Indie/Folksy sound. One such example of her work can be found [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u29qK84uvI here], as well as in [[The Barbie Diaries]] as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=it7BKJ2ozwg 'Invisible'].
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: "[https://web.archive.org/web/20131016082328/http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/5e27224abb/disneys-princess-kesha Disney's Princess Ke$ha]"
* [[Everything's Better with Sparkles]]: In an ''Entertainment Weekly'' article, she professed to "the healing power of glitter" as a hangover cure.
** Not to mention her eye makeup on the page photo.
Line 60 ⟶ 63:
* [[Lucky Charms Title]]: Ke$ha.
* [[Misandry Song]]
* [[New Sound Album]]: In [https://web.archive.org/web/20100216091526/http://www.freshyesh.com/post/kesha-in-this-months-rolling-stone/ an interview with Rolling Stone], Ke$ha claims that her new album will be influenced by ''[[The Flaming Lips]] and [[Arcade Fire]].'' Looks like MGMT may have to give up their trophy for "Most Intentionally Difficult Sophomore Album" in a few years…
** In a newer interview, she claimed that the title is ''Spandex On The Distant Horizon'' and that "maybe it will be rock and roll or maybe it will be something else. It could end up being a spoken word record or polka death metal."
** It's been confirmed that the album will be inspired by 70's rock.
Line 71 ⟶ 74:
** "Blah Blah Blah" could be seen as a parody of the "pop princess genre", but that's another [[Your Mileage May Vary|contested point]] -- alternatively it could be parodying the rap culture of objectifying women, or objectification in general, or...
** Possibly her entire career.
* [[The Pig Pen]]: So much that ''[[Cracked.com]]'' wrote in [https://web.archive.org/web/20131030064100/http://www.cracked.com/funny-4433-ke24ha/ its topic page about her]: "She is gross, gross, gross. She is slimy, sticky, and probably gooey."
* [[Pretty in Mink]]: Briefly in "Take It Off".
* [[Record Producer]]: Dr. Luke & Benny Blanco co-wrote and produced most of her songs so far.
Line 79 ⟶ 82:

It's a hole in the wall it's a dirty free for all" }}

* [[Running Gag]]: The 'bottle of Jack'. Well, it ''was'' a running gag.
** Currently it's glitter. She obviously is aware of it.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]: She's been described as "the degenerate [[Hannah Montana]]"; whereas other pop artists would deny their crude, party-girl image, she completely embraces it (just watch the video for "[[Bottle Fairy|TiK ToK]]") in what she calls "the war on pretension".
* [[Self-Deprecation]]: Her twitter is [http://www.twitter.com/KESHASUXX 'keshasuxx.']
** See also her [https://web.archive.org/web/20131016082328/http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/5e27224abb/disneys-princess-kesha Funny Or Die] video. Part Parody, part [[Take That Me]]/Embrace The Hate.
* [[Smarter Than You Look]]: Go back into her pre-party girl days and you get a deep and incredible musician, also her idea to lampshade general party culture and still have fun with it is brilliant.
* [[She Cleans Up Nicely]]: On her performances and promotional pictures, she's always as dirty as possible. [http://i44.tinypic.com/2dvqrr5.jpg Other] [http://i41.tinypic.com/6nrnr5.jpg times], it's possible to see why Maxim put her on their [http://www.maxim.com/girls-of-maxim/keha "Hot 100" list].
Line 95 ⟶ 98:
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]: The narrator of "Stephen". ''Very'' much so.
{{quote|Stephen... I'll knit you a sweater. I wanna wrap you up... in my love... forever. I would ''never'' let you go, Stephen. I'll never let go.}}
* [[Stealth Parody]]: Based on [https://web.archive.org/web/20101110004414/http://www.keshasparty.com/us/home her website], [http://www.myspace.com/kesha MySpace page], intellect and public comments (she's said she doesn't take this very seriously), it's at least possible that Ke$ha's career is some kind of parody.
* [[Spiritual Antithesis]]: Out of the world outfits, ideas, and creepy videos which in some degree don't make much sense, obsessed with partying, rebellion and 'fame', with a higher message, and lampshades various pop star expectations and then uses those tropes to their highest degree ([[Lady Gaga]])...Except she does it for fun, is out there cuz she parties and she knows it, just does her thing and has not made herself the official spokesperson for any particular social group and just wants us all to have fun and love one another. [[Stealth Parody]] elements are more within Ke$ha's choices then Gaga's too.
* [[Surreal Music Video]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HMwPcK0uIM&feature=channel Let] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LUcJi6uE0ww me] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=edP0L6LQzZE count] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QR_qa3Ohwls the] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CFWX0hWCbng&feature=player_embedded#at=21 ways].
