Pop star Kesha is reviving claims about her longtime music producer, Dr. Luke.
TMZ is reporting that in a new lawsuit, Kesha, 27, says she was sexually, physically, verbally and emotionally abused for nearly 10 years by him, starting when she signed on with him at 18.
She says he would force her to use drugs and alcohol, and that he made repeated sexual advances toward her.
In one instance, Kesha claims that after forcing her to drink with him, Dr. Luke gave her what he called "sober pills." TMZ reports, "Kesha claims she woke up the following afternoon, naked in Dr. Luke's bed, sore, sick … and with no memory of how she got there."
This isn't the first time that Kesha has made complaints about Dr. Luke, 41, whose real name is Lukasz Sebastian "Luke" Gottwald.
In January, Kesha checked herself into rehab, claiming Dr. Luke was behind her eating disorder issues. Her mother, Pebe Sebert, told People: "Dr. Luke had been telling her how she had to get in shape and lose weight and all this stuff. She was exercising and dieting and ultimately doing everything she could, but not getting thin fast enough. And that's when she first became bulimic."
When she came out, she dropped the $ from her name.Kesha sues producer for sexual assault, battery
