Lady Gaga And Kesha Both Say Music Producer Dr. Luke Raped Katy Perry But She Denies It

An new report claims Lady Gaga also "knew" that music producer Dr. Luke was guilty of raping Katy Perry, despite Perry's claim the accusation is untrue.
Stefani Germanotta, aka, Gaga, claimed in a 2017 deposition that Interscope CEO John Janick made the claim in a conversation about taking Kesha on at the music label. "He said, ‘So you know that Dr. Luke raped Katy Perry, too?'" Gaga testified. Janick's attorney denied his client ever said that.
Court documents show Gaga testifying she had enough knowledge of what it is to be a survivor of sexual abuse to know that Kesha was a victim and as for why Perry didn't agree to come forward with her own Dr. Luke story, Gaga texted Kesha: "U are really strong standing up to him, she’s not as strong as u yet."
This is all part of Kesha's sexual assault suit against Dr. Luke, filed in 2014 and dismissed. Luke has countersued Kesha and it's still ongoing.
This most recent revelation regarding Lady Gaga's supposed knowledge of Luke's misconduct against Perry elicited this statement from the music producer's attorneys:
"Being passionate about a topic that concerns us all is admirable. However, Lady Gaga has no knowledge of what happened on the night at issue because she was not there. The actual evidence shows, among other things: Kesha got kicked out of a party after drinking too much and vomiting. As an act of kindness, Dr. Luke offered to allow her to sleep in his hotel suite, a few blocks away. Kesha slept on the bed in the hotel suite, while Dr. Luke separately slept on the couch. Dr. Luke testified under oath that he did not have any contact with Kesha. Kesha herself admitted under oath that she has absolutely no memory of Dr. Luke even being in the hotel room. Kesha has no memory of Dr. Luke engaging in inappropriate contact with her because it did not happen."
