Ke$ha knows all about the perks of being a headliner. On her Get $leazy Tour, the singer gets to call all the shots, blast her fans in the face with tons of glitter and handpick which dudes she wants to party and share the stage with.

But it's not all backstage shenanigans and groupie love. When MTV News sat down with the "Blow" singer in New York earlier this week before her gig at Roseland Ballroom, Ke$ha said that amid the nightly onstage parties there have also been some poignant moments on her first headlining outing.

"Best moment? There are so many. Every night's amazing. I have kids outside right now chanting my name and it's awesome," she said of the first leg of the tour. "There was one night a fan came onstage, I invited him onstage, and he had a tattoo of the dollar sign. I was like, 'Oh, that's awesome! Badass. You're part of the cult, man.' "

And then, she said, he began to cry and explained that he was able to come out of the closet to his friends and family thanks to her song "Animal."

"And I'm standing onstage about to sing a song about growing back a pair of testicles ["Grow a Pear"] and I had tears rolling down my face and chills all over my body," she said. "Because that's really the reason I do music, to inspire people to be themselves."

Ke$ha has been a vocal supporter of the "It Gets Better" video project, which aims to help gay, bisexual and transgender youth find hope in the face of teasing and bullying.

The "Get $leazy" juggernaut continues on Saturday night with a show at Clarion University in Clarion, Pennsylvania.

Armchair Analyst: New York have upper hand vs. DC

The league?s oldest rivalry is, historically, a one-sided affair. D.C. United have traditionally treated New York the way a dog treats a fire hydrant, raining on NY?s parade in the regular season, playoffs, Open Cup and more.

However, the tide has been turning over the past 18 months, punctuated by the 4-0 thrashing the Red Bulls put on United back in April. It?s months ago now, and both teams look different than they did then ? thanks in large part to a blockbuster trade from a few weeks back.

1969 Dodge Charger R/T Restoration

This has been going for awhile so forgive me of not posting pictures from the very start. I had two Chargers that were in need of restoration so I took both of them apart,  seperated good parts from broken ones, and saw what I had to work with. I had a choice between the Hemi out of car #1 or the 440 out of car #2. I chose the Hemi and drivetrain from car #1. Here are the newest pictures.

The chassis is done and on wheels.


I added the warning decal on the radiator.

The interior has been completed.

 

 

Enjoy!
