EW has learned exclusively that Ke$ha is slated to guest star as herself and perform in the April 22 episode of Nickelodeon’s sitcom Victorious titled “Ice Cream for Ke$ha.” The pop sensation finds herself at the center of a Golden Ticket-like contest where fans have to piece together her name (including the infamous dollar-bill sign she uses as an “s,” of course) from letters at the bottom of ice cream containers.
The winner who finds all the letters to Ke$ha’s name first wins a personal, private concert from the pop act. The show’s star, aspiring singer Tori (Victoria Justice), and her gang are obsessed with the contest. In fact, Ke$ha’s real life brother, 11-year-old Louie, shows up as a lynch-pin character in the storyline, contributing to Tori and Co. eventually winning the chance to see Ke$ha perform her latest single “Blow,” glitter and all.
“It’s a private concert, and yeah, I will say that the costumes are awesome and there’s definitely lots of glitter,” Justice tells EW. “It was really fun to film. It’s the first time on my show that we’ve had a successful radio artist perform on the show. Ke$ha’s kind of edgier, and I think that it’s cool to bring that element to the show.”

Just a heads up, the title of the show is Victorious.
Yeah how did they get that wrong? Notorious was a movie about Biggie Smalls.
Victorious is show on Nick that regularly draws more viewers than broadcast sitcoms and more repeat viewings than any sitcom.
They should call this show iCrumby
Just fyi, it’s Victorious. Not Notorious.
How can you mess up so bad, especially on an exclusive? It’s Victorious, not Notorious!
EW screws up again!
Now I have both Loverboy and Duran Duran songs stuck in my head.
April Fools!! Right……please say I’m right?
For those of you who have not read the prior blogs, it is called “Victorious.” I’m glad we have that straight.
Pathetic that EW would let that mistake get through. My daughter loves this show (as well as iCarly)and we enjoy watching it together.
I’m guessing it’s an April Fools joke :p
April fools?
This just doesn’t seem legit to me.
Its Victorious not Notorious
April Fooooools.
Hi, EW! Please correct the name of the show? Tks!
