Ke$ha Talks Grammy Snub, Brushing Teeth With Jack Daniels

Ke$ha may need to see a dentist for some advice. ASAP.

The wild-child singer spoke with Vanity Fair about her career thus far, hitting on her hard-partying ways and her interesting declaration in the song 'Tik Tok.' In the first verse of the song, she says, "Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack." And apparently, she wasn't making it up.

"Absolutely not!" she insisted to the magazine. "Jack Daniels is an anti-bacterial and it's way better than morning breath. Let me put it this way, if you wake up naked in a bathtub and you have the choice between rinsing out with Jack Daniels or trying to make out with some dude with morning breath, I would recommend picking up the Jack."

Well, take note of that for those situations. It is an interesting twist to her story, one that most people think is filled with lyrics of exaggeration and nonsensical rhymes. A Princeton professor even spoke about the subject, if only to mock her.

The singer did sober up when talking about her Grammy snub, however.

"I was disappointed that I didn't get nominated," she admitted. "But I've only been around for a year. I'm friends with the Black Keys, and they were nominated for the first time this year. And they've been around for a decade. That's like half my life. So I really can't be a brat about it. I plan on making a lot more records, and hopefully one of them will be Grammy worthy."

Of course, her age hasn't really stopped her from doing things in the past. In addition to the rapid rise to stardom, last month, she talked about the very early age that she learned about sex.

Don't criticize her until you've woken up naked in a bathtub.

I hope this girl never wins, or gets nominated for a Grammy.

Yeah, yeah . . . we keep hearing what a rebel she is, but her music is still just canned generic-brand disco. Yawn. Maybe it's really her publicist who's a wild child.

Does Ke$ha have ANY talent at all?

I have a strange sense that Ke$ha is kind of like the Borat of the club pop scene, but the irony is obscured by too many very-serious-music-people falling for it.

LISTEN!! Black Keys! Dont ever make music with her, I beg you! I love guys too much to ever want to hate you! Granted 'Psychotic Girl' might have been ABOUT her, but dont ever collaborate...

Cla$$y chick:

Pop star KESHA was so desperate to make it in the music industry, she broke into PRINCE’s house to give him a demo tape.


The singer, who appeared on Flo Rida’s track Right Round, sneaked into the Purple Rain hitmaker’s Los Angeles property, but panicked when she heard the star rehearsing in the next room.

The 22 year old managed to leave her CD with Prince before she was found and escorted off the premises.

But she wishes she could have been arrested for the trespassing, because she would have liked to have had the daring stunt on her police record.

She says, “I did actually crawl under a fence to get into Prince’s house. I paid the gardener five bucks to help me make it to the other side. Then I went waltzing up the purple driveway and found the door was unlocked. I got inside and totally freaked out, because there was Prince playing guitar in the other room.

Bulleit is the name, and yes it is...for sipping. But maybe not teeth brushing or say washing your dog. Don't need the expensive stuff for that.
