Pop superstar Kesha takes a midnight dip at Bondi Beach before she embarks on her Australian tour

Global pop star Kesha has cooled off with a late-night swim at Bondi Beach after lighting up the stage in Sydney.

The 38-year-old hitmaker was spotted taking a midnight dip at the iconic Sydney beach following her high-energy performance, joined by members of her team.

Stripping down to a lilac bikini bottom paired with a nude coloured top, the singer wrapped herself in a white towel as she emerged from the water and made her way across the sand.

The beachside outing came just hours after she headlined Australia’s first ever Mighty Hoopla festival at Bondi on Saturday night.

Kesha touched down in Sydney earlier in the day, turning heads in a sparkly Playboy singlet as she prepared to take to the stage.

The annual outdoor music festival — Europe’s largest LGBTQ+ event normally held in London — made its way to Bondi Beach on Saturday night.

Festival-goers were treated to performances from Becky Hill, Countess Luann, Delta Goodrem and Jessica Mauboy.

The TiK ToK singer is now kicking off her national tour, performing in Melbourne on Sunday, Adelaide on Tuesday, and finishing at Perth’s HPC in Mt Claremont for a sold-out show on Thursday.

Unfortunately for Perth Lynx fans, Kesha’s concert has clashed with game one of the WNBL grand finale, meaning the girls won’t be able to host at home.

The tour is the 38-year-old’s first time headlining in Australia in more than a decade, celebrating her chart-topping 2025 album (Period), which debuted at number one on Billboard’s Top Album Sales chart.

Kesha described her show as “an unapologetic party” of liberation and self-expression.

The multi-award-winning artist is expected to perform her biggest hits, including ‘Timber’, ‘Die Young’ and ‘Your Love Is My Drug’.

With more than 40 million social media followers and over three billion music streams, Kesha remains one of pop music’s most powerful voices since her breakout 2009 feature on Flo Rida’s Right Round.
