Lady Gaga compares Dr. Luke to Disney villainess

Los Angeles, May 20 (IANS) Singer Lady Gaga has slammed music producer Dr. Luke and compared him to Ursula, the villainess who steals Ariel’s voice in Disney’s “The Little Mermaid”, after he reportedly banned Kesha from performing at the Billboard Music Awards.

The 30-year-old singer is horrified that Kesha — who claims the producer sexually abused her for years — has been banned from performing at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday after his label Kemosabe Records “rescinded its approval” following concerns she would speak out about their ongoing legal battle, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Comparing Luke to Ursula, Gaga tweeted: “Listen Ursula, we want her voice back. #FreeKesha (sic).”

Gaga — who has been one of Kesha’s most vocal supporters in her battle to be released from her contract by Luke’s label — also tweeted a link to a story about the controversy and wrote: “Isn’t it strange that it’s legal to own a woman this way?”

After it was reported that Kesha was planning a statement performance in which she would make “direct references” to her battle with Luke — who has denied all allegations against him — Kemosabe records banned her from taking to the stage.

Beyonce Knowles, father end feud

Los Angeles, May 20 (IANS) Singer Beyoncé Knowles, who severed her professional ties with her father Mathew Knowles in 2011, seems to have ended her feud with him.

The “Run the world” hitmaker was joined by her “proud dad” backstage at her ‘Formation’ world tour concert at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas, where they happily posed for a photograph together, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Beyoncé’s mother Tina, who is now married to actor Richard Lawson, posted the image on Instagram and wrote: “Houston concert proud dad! (sic)”

The 34-year-old singer fired Mathew, 64, as her manager in 2011 and their relationship was believed to have been strained ever since.

In 2010, Mathew acknowledged that he fathered a son named Nixon with actress Alexsandra Wright after being hit with a paternity suit. He was ordered by a court to pay $12,000 a month in child support.

His admission that he had fathered Nixon resulted in his 30-year marriage to Tina ending in 2010, but he remarried, to Gena Charmaine Avery, in June 2013.

He recently refused to speculate about the subject of Beyoncé’s latest album “Lemonade”, after she appeared to reference Mathew’s cheating.
