Dr. Luke, a prominent music producer, has firmly denied accusations made by singer Kesha in a text message sent to Lady Gaga claiming that he raped Katy Perry.

The producer described the allegations as “outrageous lies” that are “baseless and irresponsible.”

These allegations were part of court documents filed last month in New York, as part of the ongoing defamation lawsuit between Kesha and Dr. Luke.

The documents were obtained by DailyMail.com and first reported by The Blast. In the texts, Kesha claimed to Lady Gaga that Dr. Luke raped both her and Perry.

This text exchange between Kesha and Lady Gaga was first mentioned in 2016 court documents, but Katy Perry’s name was not revealed at the time.

The contents of the text were sealed by a judge, only stating that another artist had allegedly been raped.

Dr. Luke, whose real name is Lukas Gottwald, has previously denied allegations that he gave Kesha drugs and raped her.

He also recently denied the accusation of raping Katy Perry in court papers.

The documents detail how Kesha encouraged Lady Gaga to spread negative information about Dr. Luke in the media and on social media.

According to the court documents, Gaga created graphics for social media with Kesha’s help, acknowledging the claims of sexual assault.

Dr. Luke’s legal team released a statement, emphasizing that Katy Perry confirmed she was not raped by Dr. Luke and condemning Kesha’s accusations as disrespectful to both Perry and Dr. Luke.

Although the text message between Kesha and Gaga had been previously mentioned, the subject of their conversation was not known.

Katy Perry has never accused Dr. Luke of sexual misconduct publicly and has not worked with him professionally for several years.

Perry has been deposed as part of the lawsuit, but the court documents do not provide details about her testimony.

Dr. Luke and Kesha have been involved in a legal battle for years, after Kesha accused him of sexual assault in October 2014.

She alleged that his abuse led to her developing a severe eating disorder requiring rehab.

In response, Dr. Luke sued Kesha, claiming she tarnished his reputation with the rape allegations.

The producer has consistently denied all assault allegations and has never been charged with any related crimes.

Dr. Luke’s representatives stated that Kesha and her legal team should be ashamed for not acknowledging and apologizing for the false accusations involving Katy Perry.

They claimed that the accusations only became public because Kesha’s attorneys filed them publicly.

Kesha’s press release stating that a music executive told her Dr. Luke raped Katy Perry was contradicted by the executive, who denied ever making such a statement.
