Kesha, 27, told ABC News last year that she was tired of dating. Saying that she was ready to find her "soulmate," she described her ideal mate as someone "outdoorsy and [who] loves animals and is really positive and is really funny."

"I do [like dirty boys], I mean, not actually, physically covered in dirt, but I just like them to be beardy [with] long hair and look like a little homeless," she told Seacrest of her type. "I like guys who look like they don’t groom themselves. I'm not into guys who are very high-maintenance. That's like my thing. I don’t want them to take longer to get ready than me!"
