Pink Shades Trashy, Uninspiring MTV VMAs (True Tea, Though), Demi Lovato Responds
Thank Christ someone said what we were all thinking.
Pink, a usually fragile, shy and wilting flower, has reportedly voiced up with her thoughts on this past Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards. We say “reportedly” because her comments were apparently made on her personal Instagram, which is set to private.
But fear not, for there is a screen grab of her words doing the rounds, wherein she chides the annual shindig by stating, “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 kids [sic] life.”
The full screen capture is below.
Now, as you can imagine, the fans of certain artists who did perform at the VMAs didn’t take too kindly to Pink’s sass, and began to let her know so on Twitter.

@Pink I forgot you were a singer — – (@BurninUpDemi) September 4, 2015
Pink then decided to clarify her shade.
Please look for a feud elsewhere. I have no issue with Demi Lovato or anyone else. I actually forgot she performed. I have opinions. MANY

I stand by what I said. However, I didn’t intend for the angry people of the world to latch on and make it into something it isn’t. Peace ✌️ — P!nk (@Pink) September 4, 2015
You know, this is part of why I’m sad about the VMas and the world in general. Everyone is so nasty and waiting for a fight. I never said

Anything about Demi Lovato or called out anyone. I was talking to a friend in response to his disappointment about the show. I agree w him. — P!nk (@Pink) September 4, 2015

In other news, it’s gonna be a beautiful day, I hope you look up from your keyboards and enjoy it ❤️ — P!nk (@Pink) September 4, 2015
Oh, and Demi Lovato herself, who belted out seasonal lesbian jam “Cool For The Summer” at the VMAs on Sunday, took issue with Pink’s comments.
Cool For The Summer may not “save kid’s lives” or “inspire” but I’d say Skyscraper & Warrior have done a pretty good job of helping people

Now, in the name of fairness, we should point out that Pink once performed a medley of her tell-off/masturbation anthem “U + Ur Hand” and “Get The Party Started” at the Australian MTV Video Music Awards.
But who knows — maybe that inspired some young kids to spank it into red Solo cups?
