Ke$ha Was Paid $1.63 To Write Miley Cyrus Song



Pop star Ke$ha was only paid $1.63 to write the title track for Miley Cyrus’ 2009 EP “The Time Of Our Lives”.
At the beginning of her career, the “Tik Tok” hit-maker penned a handful of songs for other artists, including Britney Spears and The Veronicas – and she was often shocked when she received pay checks for her creative efforts.
She tells Seventeen magazine, “It was like $1.63 cents for a song I wrote – I think for Miley Cyrus. It was an embarrassingly tiny amount. But I never cashed it and it’s on a bulletin board in my house.”
It was a rewarding experience, however – because Ke$ha had a blast working with Cyrus.
She told MTV News, “Writing for Miley was fun ’cause I think she’s funny. I met her and I liked her vibe, so I was like, ‘OK, I’ll write, like, a party song for a younger crowd.’”
