In an interview with Attitude, Kesha explained that she did not care about a person鈥檚 gender before falling in love with them. As explained in her Instagram post, the Praying singer said that she falls in love with the soul behind the eyes and not the physical body.

鈥淚t has never occurred to me to care about a specific gender, or how someone is identifying, to make me wonder about whether or not I鈥檓 attracted to them,鈥� she explained to Attitude Magazine during a 2019 interview.

Now Kesha does not want to put labels on her sexuality saying that she loves everything and everyone. She has overcome more battles in her life and the pressure to have her label her sexuality does not seem like something she is scared of.
