Katy Perry breaks her silence over working with Dr. Luke on new album 143 after Kesha lawsuit

Some people have taken issue with the fact Katy's new music, including recent single Woman's World, is about female empowerment, and don't believe still working with Luke, 50, is a good look.

The 39-year-old pop star caused a stir by continuing to work with her longtime collaborator on her upcoming album '143', after he was locked in a decade-long legal battle with peer Kesha, 37, who he sued in 2014 when she him of physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, which he denied. However, the I Kissed A Girl hitmaker - who has four-year-old daughter Daisy with fiancé Orlando Bloom - insists that her lyrics all come from her own personal experiences and do not reflect the views of the producer. In June, Rolling Stone reported that the multi-Grammy Award nominee was collaborating with Dr. Luke as well as Max Martin, Sarah Hudson and Stargate on her sixth record.
