Pink (43) shares warm words about fellow musician Britney Spears (41). After more than two decades in the music business, the singer knows how hard it can be to be in the public eye. The 2000s in particular were considered a difficult time for female pop stars. The mental health of the “Toxic” interpreter is still a big issue today. Pink now reveals in an interview how she feels about Britney!
“People think I put Britney down on ‘Don’t Let Me Get Me,’ but I always felt like her big sister, ” Pink told People. In their 2001 single, she sings that she’s tired of being compared to the pop princess: “She’s so pretty. It’s just not me.” However, this is not hostility to her colleague. Rather, pink refers to the pressure of competition and the ideals of beauty that make it difficult for female pop stars. Therefore, she wishes Britney only the best: “I want to protect her and she is the dearest person in the whole world.” Nevertheless, the musicians are not in contact with each other.
Pink had already expressed her dismay at Britney’s story of suffering last year. She would have seen the documentary about the pop phenomenon and regretted not having contacted her immediately: “I would have liked to have been there for her. I am a strong person and I already have the impression that I have made a first step can dare. ” Why the singer has not done so after almost a year remains open.
