Popstar touches down for week of ‘unapologetic’ parties
Global pop superstar Kesha has touched down in Sydney, turning heads in a sparkly Playboy singlet as she geared up to headline the Australian-first Mighty Hoopla festival on Saturday night before launching into her Tits Out Australian tour.
The annual outdoor music festival — Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ event normally held in London — has made its way to Bondi Beach for one glitter-filled night.
Festival-goers will also be treated to performances from Becky Hill, Countess Luann, Delta Goodrem and Jessica Mauboy.
After the Hoopla, the TiK ToK singer will kick off her national tour, performing in Melbourne on Sunday, Adelaide on Tuesday, and finishing at Perth’s HPC in Mt Claremont for a sold-out show on Thursday.
Review: Kesha @ The Riverstage (Brisbane)
Occasionally as a show approaches, concertgoers can detect indications it will be one to remember.
Last night (19 February) was certainly one of those shows as Kesha returned to Australia, bringing The T!ts Out tour down under after a seven-year absence from our shores. Brisbane and Perth are sold out, while Melbourne had to be upgraded to a much larger venue to satisfy her fans.
The first thing to state upfront. The vast majority of the crowd comprised youthful females, and there were many humorous takes on the tour name (on t-shirts, sunglasses and in various other ways). Kesha clearly appeals to this group, and anyone with a teenage daughter will have been exposed to her music (like I have!).

Live Review: A liberated Kesha self-celebrates on her Tits Out Tour – Brisbane Riverstage (19.2.26)
There are pop tours that feel like victory laps – and then there are the ones that feel like reclamations. On the opening night of her Australian Tits Out Tour in Brisbane, Kesha’s return to the stage felt firmly like the latter: messy in places, minimal in production, emotionally raw – and undeniably hers.
The night began with Australian electro trio Blusher, whose brand of rave-ready, synth-soaked euphoric pop was an apt tonal warm-up for what was to come. Their set pulsed with energy, all neon rush and dancefloor build-ups, though at times the backing tracks overpowered whatever live vocals may have been there. There were even moments where the crowd noise embedded in the audio mix sounded suspiciously inflated, as if enthusiasm had been sweetened in post.
