Pop star Kesha sent a message of support to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura after the rapper was found not guilty of sex trafficking charges on Wednesday. In a post shared on X, the TiK ToK singer wrote, “Cassie, I believe you. I love you. Your strength is a beacon for every survivor.” Ventura’s testimony played a central role in the mogul’s trial, giving several days of testimony in May in which she detailed “freak offs” and alleged nonconsensual orgies. Kesha faced similar testimony in 2016 after she filed a lawsuit against music producer Dr. Luke, accusing him of drugging and raping her at a 2005 party, which he denied. Though Kesha ultimately dropped her suit against the producer in 2016, the pair were engaged in a years-long legal battle until reaching a settlement in 2023. In another show of support for Cassie, Kesha changed the lyrics of her TiK ToK song from “Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy,” to “Wake up in the morning like f--- P. Diddy” during her Coachella set in April.
