Ke$ha designs exclusive watches for Casio

Glitter loving singer Ke$ha has teamed up with Casio to become an honourary watch designer. 

The 'We R Who We R' pop star joined forces with the very trendy Baby G brand to launch two exclusive timepieces. One is American themed and features the traditional red, white and blue colour scheme while the second watch is decorated in leopard print. 

Speaking about the exciting project, Ke$ha explained her history with Casio began when she wrote 'Tik Tok' on one of the company's keyboards:

"I've been designing and making my own clothes since I was young, and, as an artist, I design all of my stage costumes. This experience with Casio is so exciting because it's my first collaboration as a designer and it's extra meaningful because I wrote my first single 'TiK ToK' on a Casio keyboard."

"In creating my red, white and blue watch, I was obviously inspired by the American flag because it's a recurring theme in my aesthetic but also represents freedom of speech, a right I passionately exercise in my life and in my music."

"Leopard print is another recurring theme in my look, which I like to wear because it brings out my animal inside. I hope when people wear my watches they're reminded to express themselves always and never lose the animal inside themselves."
