It’s still uncertain that the legal battle warrior is allowed to perform at this year’s Billboard Music Awards after Dr. Luke’s record label “rescinded its approval”.

After a week of rumors that Kesha would perform at the Billboard Music Awards this Sunday (May 22), Dick Clark Productions announced today that the pop star, as of now, will not be able to perform on the show. Dick Clark Productions is the production company the produces events like the Billboard Music Awards and Miss Universe.

"Kesha accepted an invitation to perform on the show and she received written approval from Dr. Luke's record label, Kemosabe Records," Dick Clark Productions said in a statement. “Unfortunately, Kesha and Kemosabe have since been unable to come to an agreement for Kesha to perform on the show."

According to a report from, Kesha was allegedly planning to make direct reference to her legal fight with Dr. Luke during her Billboard Music Awards performance. The singer and the producer has undergone a legal battle after Kesha accused Dr. Luke of abuse and the latter sued the former for slander. A judge denied the pop singer an injunction that would have allowed her to record new music outside of Dr, Luke’s label, Kemosabe Records.

Kesha has posted a comment about the BBMA situation on Instagram. She revealed that she intended to cover Bob Dylan’s song It Ain’t Me, Babe.

“I just wanted to make very clear that this performance was about me honoring one of my favorite songwriters of all time and has never had anything at all to do with Dr. Luke”, Kesha wrote.
