“It” girl, party girl, wild child: whatever you want to call Ke$ha you might want to retract as she put us in line with a new interview she had with Britain’s Sunday Times:

“So many people say, ‘So, what, are you a party girl?’ And I say, ‘I’m a walking good time.’ Do I sometimes go out and drink? Hell, yes. But could I have a number one song if I wasn’t also working hard? Maybe that needs a little more respect. Also, the phrase ‘party girl’ implies someone who is out at a club, maybe doing some guy in the back who you’ve just met. Then you get in your car and you flash your vagina at the paparazzi. And I’m none of the above.”

“I have been working on realizing this dream, my path, my mission, for years. I’ve really invested a lot of thought, time and effort into it. The last thing that makes me is a victim. I think it’s a bummer when people don’t represent that properly, when they portray me as purely one-dimensional.”

Maybe we need to consider putting Ke$ha and longevity into the same sentence now. Before this statement we just got the impression she was an “in the moment” sort of person; she seemed like the type to make no provisions for the future. So we get it, Ke$ha delivers a party image but behind it is a working machine who knows just what is what.
