Perry, purportedly a friend of Ke$ha&#8217;s, broke through in similar fashion with the edgy &#8220;I Kissed a Girl&#8221; in 2008.<\/p>\n<p>It will also dominate Katharine McPhee&#8217;s &#8220;Unbroken,&#8221; the only other major new entry.  The latest album from the &#8220;American Idol&#8221; finalist is pacing for about 13-15,000 first week sales.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/view.picapp.com\/default.aspx?term=ke$ha&#038;iid=7362491\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.picapp.com\/ftp\/Images\/e\/c\/9\/3\/Z100s_Jingle_Ball_2037.jpg?adImageId=8827519&#038;imageId=7362491\" width=\"380\" height=\"286\"  border=\"0\" alt=\"Z100&apos;s Jingle Ball 2009 - Show\"\/><\/a><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.pis.picapp.com\/IamProd\/PicAppPIS\/JavaScript\/PisV4.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ke$ha&#039;s &quot;Animal&quot;
