Ke$Ha Tweets Hit ‘Die Young’ ‘Now Inappropriate’

Ke$ha says she understands her hit song “Die Young” ‘‘is now inappropriate” following the shootings in Newtown, Conn.

The pop singer said in a Twitter post Tuesday night that she’s “so so so sorry” for anyone affected by the tragedy.

Earlier Tuesday, Ke$ha tweeted that she had her own issues with “Die Young” due to the lyrics, but that she was “FORCED TO” sing them. That tweet was deleted a short time later.

Ke$ha’s spokesman said the 25-year-old had no comment Wednesday morning.

“Die Young” is intended as a party. Radio stations began to pull it and other songs with potentially upsetting lyrics after 27 people, including 20 children, were killed Friday at an elementary school.
