Word on twitter is (yes I am using twitter as a news source) that Ke$ha had auditioned for the execs at Island Def Jam…

According to some contacts of mine, Ke$ha had originally show cased for Island Def Jam but was passed upon.

This is the second time I can think of a hot newcomer (though how hot Ke$ha will continue to be remains to be seen) was done wrong by the IDJ. As you may or may not know, Lady Gaga was once part of the Island Def Jam stable. However, the people there could not figure out what to do with her and so she was given the boot in favor of the Estonian singer Kerli.

The question remains, who did the right thing here? Will Ke$ha’s success continue? In the end was she done a favor by not landing at IDJ?

Who knows
