9 Insane Conspiracy Theories About The Illuminati And The Music Industry
8. Ke$ha Was Forced By The Illuminati Against Her Will To Release Die Young
When it first released in 2012, Ke$ha's Die Young was hugely successful, but it also spurred a huge amount of controversy. For a start, it was pulled from many radio stations in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, as the repeated proclamation we're gonna die young was deemed distasteful and inappropriate. But that's far from the most curious bit. The music video for the song sees Ke$ha playing the role of a cult leader, engaging in various sexual activities. Throughout the video there is a massive amount of occult imagery including the all-seeing eye, inverted crosses, pentagrams and pyramids. This, of course, prompted accusations of the song being a direct product of the Illuminati, and what's interesting is that Ke$ha responded to the song's criticism, claiming that she was forced to sing it. What this truly means is anybody's guess, but many took it as confirmation of shadier goings on.
