Ke$ha: 'Our president rules'

By Alexander Lazar and Judy Kurtz - 01/24/13 04:20 PM ET

President Obama has a fan in pop star Ke$ha.

The chart topper — known more for her beat-heavy hits than her politics — declared, “Our president rules,” while performing at an inaugural concert in Washington.

The 25-year-old singer also dedicated her single “Your Love is My Drug” to the president during the benefit concert hosted by Musicians on Call and the Recording Industry Association of America.

Organizers aimed to raise money for wounded soldiers at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and bedridden hospital patients at other hospitals run by the Veterans Affairs Administration with Monday’s event at D.C.’s 9:30 Club.

D.J. Jazzy Jeff, who appeared onstage at the inaugural shindig, said he was on the National Mall for all the action earlier in the day. “I thought it was great. I was definitely proud,” he said of the inauguration.

The entertainer added, “You have a tendency to be a little more patriotic when you are there in person; you just kind of feel the magnitude of the moment … I was able to see the motorcade go by, and just the acknowledgement that that is the president of the United States, and just being in D.C. was great. It was definitely an experience."
