Demi Lovato to Taylor Swift: "Speak Out About Something and Then I'll Be Impressed"
After Friday's New York Supreme Court ruling that Kesha would have to remain under contract with Sony and Dr. Luke, the producer she said emotionally, mentally, and sexually abused her, many people in the music industry—Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, and Demi Lovato among others—made their support known of her on their social media accounts. Demi was particularly vocal—and appears to have called out music power player and "self proclaimed feminist" Taylor Swift for her silence:

The singer clarified: "I didn't shade Taylor…I'm just tired of seeing women use 'women empowerment' and 'feminism' to further brands without being the ones that have the uncomfortable conversations."
