Kesha raised concerns Thursday when she performed her new single JOYRIDE with a large knife at the Hard Rock Casino in Atlantic City.

The 37-year-old singer-songwriter, who released her new single on Thursday after parting ways with record label Dr. Luke less than a year ago, turned heads on stage as she brandished a large knife.

During the concert, the Die Young singer held up a black T-shirt emblazoned with the word “free” in glitter to the audience to indicate her “freedom” from the record label.

Wearing a shiny black corset with lace panels, the singer proceeded to pull out a large knife as she sang for the crowd.

During the event, the star changed her outfit several times and proceeded to dress as a nun before adopting a stylish denim ensemble.

She also boldly held up a sanitary pad with the word “c***y” printed on it to the crowd.

The blonde beauty looked incredible as she styled her locks in loose waves and wore a shimmery silver eyeshadow.

MailOnline has contacted their representatives for comment.

The performance bears a striking resemblance to Britney Spears’ dangerous dance involving giant kitchen knives last year.

The 41-year-old pop icon used two knives as props in the then-silent clip and shared the video with her 42.1 million Instagram followers.

The singer appeared scantily clad in a swimsuit and crop top in the foyer of her California home as she twirled the two kitchen utensils in a dizzying impromptu choreography.

Britney assured her fans in the caption: “I started playing in the kitchen with knives today!! Don’t worry they are NOT real knives!!!”

Kesha’s performance comes as she celebrated her independence with the release of her new single titled JOYRIDE on Independence Day.

As a newly minted independent artist, the singer-songwriter released this defiant, upbeat song as her first since parting ways with record label Dr. Luke less than a year ago.

The TiK ToK hitmaker has been teasing new music for months and just days ago, she announced her plans to release JOYRIDE, which debuted at Brooklyn’s Planet Pride over the weekend, on July 4th.

However, just days before Katy Perry dropped her own song, Kesha’s release of JOYRIDE appeared to be a subtle attack on the Fireworks singer for collaborating with the controversial record producer.

After a long legal battle against Dr. Luke, a record producer she accused of sexually assaulting and abusing her for years, it seems that all is in the past.

Kesha’s new summer anthem features an electro sound reminiscent of her early hits like TiK ToK and We R Who We R, as well as bold, hard-hitting lyrics about finding a “good time.”

She even makes an apparent reference to the 2004 cult classic, Mean Girls, singing in the chorus, “Come along, loser, for the ride.”

In the first verse, she calls herself a “b***h” and purrs, “Don’t try to give me shit / I’ve earned the right to be this way.”

After the chorus and in the second verse, she sings a lyric that is sure to go viral: “Do you want children? Well, I am a mother.”

She also put on a shiny black corset that had lace panels on the sides.

She launched JOYRIDE with a cover that showed off her long legs, clad in bright red stockings and over-the-knee latex boots, while sitting on the hood of a Porsche convertible.

In the faceless image, Kesha can be seen wearing a crop top with latex opera gloves and nothing but a saucy thong and her sheer stockings.

Her release of JOYRIDE comes shortly after her record deal with Kemosabe Records and RCA ended in December 2023.

Earlier that year, she released her album Gag Order in May, the last one she was contractually obligated to record for the label.

In 2009, she signed a traditional industrial contract and was therefore legally obligated to record a total of seven albums for her alleged abuser.

She released five full-length albums and three EPs before parting ways with her label RCA last year.

In 2023, her nearly decade-long, bitter legal battle with Dr. Luke also ended when they reached an out-of-court settlement.

However, despite her newfound freedom, she has been unable to release music until February 2024 and has previously said she was “counting the days”.

In 2014, Kesha filed a civil lawsuit against Dr. Luke, whose full name is Lukasz Gottwald.

She claimed he abused her “physically, sexually, verbally and emotionally” over a 10-year period.

He strongly denied the allegations and subsequently sued her for defamation and breach of contract for $50 million.

In 2016, Kesha dropped the abuse allegations, concluding that she did not fully remember the events of that night, but the Kemosabe Records founder’s lawsuit continued for nearly a decade.

Kesha’s last five albums, including Gag Order, were released on the Kemosabe label.

Additionally, the musician, who rose to fame after appearing on Flo Rida’s 2009 smash hit Right Round and then releasing his breakthrough hit TiK ToK in 2012, has a versatile discography, including: Animal (2010), Warrior (2012), Rainbow (2017) and High Road (2020).
