As Lady Gaga has pointed out,India Dr. Luke is making himself look a lot like a certain Disney villain.
Gaga called Dr. Luke "Ursula" in reference to the back and forth battle between Kesha and her record label, Dr. Luke's Kemosabe Records, over whether or not Kesha could perform at Sunday's Billboard Music Awards.

There are definitely parallels in this saga to the deal with the devil Ariel made, surrendering her voice in The Little Mermaid.
Kesha's performance of Bob Dylan's "It Ain't Me, Babe" Sunday night is back on as of today after Dr. Luke rescinded his initial permission for Kesha to sing at the ceremony.

Gaga has been a vocal supporter of the #FreeKesha movement and Kesha has covered Gaga's song about surviving sexual assault, "Til It Happens To You."
