Kesha is the epitome of self-confidence; she is a woman so secure about her body that criticisms empower her.

The "Tik Tok" hitmaker recently clapped back at body shamers with a sexy diss. She dropped tantalizing pictures to show haters they can talk, but their words are nothing more than background noise.

This isn't the first time Kesha has confidently bared her body on social media and even went without clothes once to promote her new music.

On Sunday, Kesha updated her Instagram page with two shots of her in a tiny black bathing suit. The first image captured her posing at the beach, with the setting sun in the distance and waves framing the background.

She lay on the sand with her back slightly arched, drawing attention to the tattoo on her ribcage and irresistible curves. Body shamers may need to check their eyes as Kesha looked breathtaking, like a mermaid washed ashore.

Next came a picture of her on a balcony with a view of a resort behind her as she posed in a white robe and a baseball cap. Underneath the outfit was her black bathing suit, which left little to the imagination with its itty-bitty string design.

Although she looked ravishing in the images, Kesha revealed her body wasn't everyone's cup of tea in the post's caption. She penned a short message to body shamers, assuring them that their criticisms about her body could never overshadow her self-love and confidence.

"I didn't think in 2024 people still body shamed, but I am so proud of my body, she's been through a lot. She's torn her ACL on stage and finished the show, she's held my fucking broken heart together," the singer-songwriter began, adding:

"To those who think you're shaming me, you're actually making me feel very powerful. So, to you, I hope you one day feel whole enough to not tear other women down, in the meantime, hate me harder b-tch :)."
