Pink says that she wasn’t “shading” Christina Aguilera in a recent interview in which she discussed 2001’s “Lady Marmalade.” Speaking with Buzzfeed, Pink admitted that the music video for the song was her “least favorite” to shoot and “wasn’t very fun to make,” because of “some personalities” on set. Addressing the response to the viral comments on Twitter, Saturday night, Pink said that she’s not interested in drama.
“Y’all are nuts. Xtina had shit to do with who was on that song. If you don’t know by now- I’m not “shading” someone by telling it over and over and over what actually happened,” Pink wrote. “I’m zero percent interested in your fucking drama. If you haven’t noticed- I’m a little busy selling.” In another post, she added: “Also- I kissed xtinas mouth. I don’t need to kiss her ass.”

“I guess it is iconic, but I remember I kept crying because my skin didn’t like the makeup,” Pink further told Buzzfeed. “It was just… There was some annoying things happening that day.”
Her interview with Buzzfeed wasn’t the first time that Pink spoke down on the song’s music video. During a 2009 VH1 Behind the Music special, Pink complained about the experience. Years later, Pink appeared on a 2017 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen and revealed that Aguilera once “swung at me in a club.” She clarified that they had since made amends. “We were super young and super new at the whole thing, and I think I’m an alpha, and she’s an alpha,” Pink said. “I’m used to taking my altercations physical and she’s used to having them verbal. We’re just very different, we’re very different. And we were very young and new. You have to learn — women have to learn how to support each other. It’s not taught to each other in the playground.”
Aguilera appeared on the program two years later and gave her side of the story. “She was heckling me in the audience a little bit behind the director,” she said of Pink on the set. “I was like, ‘Oh, What’s going on?’ But that’s what she did back then. She’s a different person now, she’s a mom, she’s cool.”
