Kesha 'proud and nervous' to perform at the Grammy Awards
In her introduction to a performance by Kesha - who had a high-profile court case involving sexual assault at the hands of her producer and was performing a song about the ordeal, called Praying - Monae sounded a call for an end to discrimination.
Kesha's stirring Grammys performance came with an important message: #MeToo.
Lauper, Cabello, Day and Michaels were part of a larger chorus of singers - who all wore white along with Kesha.
"Tonight, I am proud to stand in solidarity as not just an artist, but a young woman with my fellow sisters in this room who make up the music industry", said Monae.
Dr. Luke, real name Lukasz Gottwald, has denied the allegations.

Pop star Kesha brough the 2018 Grammys to tears with her emotionally charged performance on Sunday night.
Joined onstage by Cyndi Lauper, Camila Cabello, Julia Michaels, Andra Day and Bebe Rexha, a visibly emotional Kesha sang the lead single off her comeback album Rainbow.
"When i wrote praying, with ben abraham and ryan lewis, i just felt as if i had gotten a huge weight off of my shoulders", she wrote alongside a picture of Madison Square Garden. "I never could have known what would've happened these past few years".
