Kesha: ‘I can’t understand laws against gay marriage’

Kesha has spoken about her support for gay marriage, saying that she “can’t understand” laws that stand between people in love.

The singer also recalled officiating a marriage ceremony for two of her female friends back in 2012.

Speaking to CBS News, she said: “I got ordained as a minister so that I could perform a wedding ceremony for two of my friends in 2012 in California. It was such an amazing experience to help two beautiful women cement their commitment to each other through marriage.

“But as joyous as that experience was, it was at the same time infuriating to think that gay marriage is still illegal in a vast majority of the U.S.

“I was honoured to participate firsthand in a wedding between two women who love each other. I saw how much in meant to them, and I can’t understand why any person or any law would stand in-between that kind of love.”

Kesha is currently appearing as a judge on US series Rising Star, and is thought to be working with Calvin Harris on material for her new album.
