'I would rather let the truth ruin my career than lie for a monster ever again':

Kesha has said she would rather let the 'truth' ruin her career then retract claims she was raped by producer Dr Luke.

The musician, who is in the midst of a dramatic legal battle with Sony, posted an emotional message on Instagram insisting she would never 'lie for a monster' ever again.

It comes just two weeks after the 29-year-old singer announced she would be appealing the decision by a judge that forced her to keep working with music giants - despite claims she was attacked. 

The singer wrote: 'So. I got offered my freedom IF i were to lie. I would have to APOLOGIZE publicly and say that I never got raped. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS behind closed doors. 

'I will not take back the TRUTH. I would rather let the truth ruin my career than lie for a monster ever again.'

In a statement to Daily Mail, a spokesperson for Dr Luke denied the singer's claims.  

'Kesha's Instagram posting is false. The Court repeatedly stated Kesha is already free to record without Dr Luke, and that she had not presented any facts supporting her claims,' the statement reads. 

'That's because all the evidence - including Kesha's own videotaped sworn testimony - show her allegations are false.
