\n\tKesha<\/a> was dangerously close to becoming a literal \u201cBackstabber\u201d while performing the song at her Lollapalooza set, something she didn\u2019t even realize until afterward. According to the pop star, her prop knife was switched out for a real blade before she went onstage Thursday night \u2014 not that anyone told her about it.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201csooooo apparently the prop knife went missing,\u201d she tweeted that night. \u201cand they replaced it with a real butcher knife stolen from the kitchen. and i didn\u2019t know. till now. so watch that again\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tKesha Claims New Album Will be Even Better Than \u2018Animal\u2019\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tBillboard <\/em>has reached out to Kesha\u2019s reps and Lollapalooza for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe knife in question appeared midway through the musician\u2019s set in Chicago, as captured in videos from her performance of \u201cBackstabber.\u201d As she sang the Animal<\/em> deep cut (no pun intended), Kesha swung the prop around, pointed it at the audience and twirled it in circles, apparently not realizing that she was holding an actual blade.<\/p>\n

\n\tDuring her set, the California native also performed her new single \u201cJoyride,\u201d <\/a>which fittingly dropped on the Fourth of July as it marked her first release as an independent artist, having completed her contract with Kemosabe Records in December. She also called out former president Donald Trump\u2019s 2024 running mate JD Vance while on stage, according to fans<\/a> on social media. Two days prior, she\u2019d tweeted<\/a>, \u201cbring your middle fingers lolla, f\u2013k u jd Vance.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tKesha also put the Ohio senator on blast while on her way to LAX last week, calling his comments about the Democratic party being made up of \u201cchildless cat ladies\u201d <\/a>sexist. \u201cBooooo! F\u2013k that man,\u201d she added to a photographer at the time, according to the video obtained by TMZ. \u201cThat\u2019s all I have to say. F\u2013k them all.\u201d<\/p>\n
