Monae set the stage for a tear-jerking performance of "Praying" by Kesha, who herself alleged abuse against her mentor and producer Dr. Luke, causing a years-long hiatus of her career.
Camila Cabello, Cyndi Lauper, Julia Michaels, Andra Day, BB Rexha, and the Resistance Revival Chorus joined Kesha on stage for a powerful performance of the artist's autobiographical song about her years of struggling to re-enter the music industry on her own terms.
