Can't we all just get along? Apparently not -- especially if there are multiple pop stars involved.
People magazine reports that Pink did not enjoy the 2015 VMAs, and she wrote all about it on her private Instagram account.
"I felt embarrassed and sad. And old. We're getting old. But in all seriousness; I felt sad because music is supposed to inspire. It saved my life. This trash won't save any kid's life. In a world that is even scarier and with lives still worth saving, who will stand up and have soul? Disenfranchised to say the least," the 35-year-old, who likes to break out the aerial silks when it's her turn to perform at award shows, wrote.
She added, "Let down by my industry and peers. Beside Macklemore and Pharrell and Bieber (pre-sob fest) and The Weeknd, Tori Kelly was dope too. The rest was gross and embarrassing and hard for this aging pop star to believe."
Okay, so we know who she liked -- that leaves Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, Iggy Azalea and Twenty One Pilots and A$AP Rocky.
When fans pointed this out, Pink, whose real name is Alicia Moore, doubled down on her assessment of the VMAs on Twitter Friday, but specifically said she wasn't including Demi Lovato in her list of embarrassment.
And though Pink hadn't actually named Lovato in her VMAs takedown (and a few hours later would clarify that she wasn't referring to her at all), the"Cool for the Summer" singer also turned to Twitter on Friday to defend her performance, because that's how things work these days.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
