“F— P. Diddy”: Kesha Changes Lyrics Of Song, Shows The Finger Following Rapper’s Arrest
Kesha has made her stance crystal clear on the ongoing P. Diddy scandal, and she did it with just her lyrics.
Following the arrest of Sean “Diddy” Combs, the pop diva shared a TikTok video on Wednesday, September 18, and gave the finger to the music mogul, who was charged this week with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution.
He pleaded not guilty to the charges in federal court in New York City and was ordered to be held without bail on Tuesday, September 17.

Kesha recently altered the lyrics of her hit song TiK ToK to take a stand against rapper amid his ongoing legal troubles.
Originally, the song’s opening line mentioned waking up “feeling like P. Diddy,” but she now sings, “Wake up in the morning like f— P. Diddy,” letting her audience know exactly what she thinks about the allegations of sex trafficking and assault against him.

Following the Last Night rapper’s arrest this week, the California native star uploaded a video on social media where she lip-synced to her new lyrics and showed the finger to the camera.
She debuted the change with a Coachella performance during Reneé Rapp’s festival set in April 2024, and she later confirmed that the lyric change will be permanent.
