I’ll be honest, it generally annoys me when people use symbols in the spelling of their name. But how can I be annoyed with Ke$ha with talk of such great deeds!?

The musician recently donated over 1,000 pounds of dog and cat food to the Nashville Metro Animal Shelter — her hometown shelter. Nice work!

“The pets were left alone [in flooded homes],” Ke$ha told People Pets. “A lot of them unfortunately died, but a lot of them were left stranded without food.”

“I was wheeling massive amounts of dog food and I was with my mom and we both got a little emotional,” she added. “Sometimes animals get left behind when people are going through tragedy.”

To continue doing her part, Ke$ha is also planning a benefit to raise money for the citizens of Nashville.

“I’m thrilled to announce that I will be playing a show to help benefit Nashville, my hometown,” says Ke$ha. “One hundred percent of the profits from ticket sales will go to help the victims of these devastating floods.

From all of us here at Ecorazzi, a big thumbs up to Ke$ha! We love it when stars take their giving to the next level! Keep up the great work!
