Kesha took to Instagram on Sunday (January 5) to celebrate the 15th anniversary of her career-making debut album, Animal. The 37-year-old pop star also lovingly paid tribute to the ambition of the artist she was at the time. The post features a series of promotional photos and video stills from the Animal-era, as well as an old interview clip with a young Kesha, who proudly states, “The only reason I made this record is to make kids have fun and have dance parties and inspire people to just be happy.” Kesha notes that the album’s breakout single, “Tik Tok,” just “had its biggest streaming day just a few days ago,” as fans continue to connect with her music all these years later. Kesha admits that “I had no idea what these songs would open up for me and what kind of life I would be creating for myself just by putting these songs out in the world. I’m so happy I did.” (Rolling Stone)
