Kesha’s breakout hit “TikTok” has achieved its highest streaming numbers ever, following her electric performance on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve in Las Vegas. On January 1, 2025, the 2009 anthem garnered nearly 2 million streams on Spotify in a single day. The song, which originally topped the Billboard Hot 100 in January 2010, marked the first chart-topping hit of that decade and peaked at Number 4 in the UK.
Kesha Reflects on the Milestone
Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Kesha expressed her gratitude: “It was 15 years ago that I got my first #1 song! Y’all did that. And the fact that ‘TikTok’ had its biggest streaming day EVER yesterday blows my mind. Thank you for supporting my art. Love y’all. You give me purpose.”
She continued, dedicating the song to her fans, whom she affectionately calls “Animals”: “This song is for the wild ones, the party girls, the ones who go too hard and laugh too loud and say too much. I love you. Thank you, Animals!!!”
New Music and Upcoming UK Tour
During the New Year’s Eve special, Kesha also performed her summer anthem “Joyride,” a track from her highly anticipated forthcoming album, set for release later this year. Fans have already had a taste of the new record with the single “Delusional,” which debuted earlier.
In 2025, Kesha will embark on a UK tour, including headline shows in Manchester, Glasgow, and London in May and June. She’ll also grace the stage at Mighty Hoopla in London, sharing the lineup with stars like Ciara, Kate Nash, Pixie Lott, and Vengaboys. Tickets for her shows are available now.
