Kesha has just delivered one of the Grammys' most powerful moments with a performance of her hit Praying.
The pop star, who spent years embroiled in a legal battle over sexual assault claims with producer Dr Luke, performed with a star-studded choir of fellow stars including Camila Cabello, Cyndi Lauper,Bebe Rexha and more.
She performed while fighting back tears and at the end of the set, the women around her all shared tears and hugs in support.
The performance followed an impassioned speech by R&B star Janelle Monae, who spoke about standing in support for all the women in the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements but added that it was the music industry's problem too.
The courage and strength it takes for a victim of sexual assault to get on stage and speak their peace is phenomenal. Let alone for that victim to get on stage and sing about a popular music producer who hurt them and the label that screwed them over. We salute you Kesha
