What happened between Pink and Christina Aguilera?
Although it appeared Pink and Christina Aguilera put their rivalry behind them, their feud was brought up again while the former was promoting her ninth album Trustfall.
During an interview with Buzzfeed, Pink ranked her collaboration with Christina at the bottom of her favorite music videos list.
Along with Missy Elliott, Mya, and Lil’ Kim, the two GRAMMY Award winners came together for the 2001 hit song Lady Marmalade.
While discussing why Lady Marmalade was her least favorite music video, Pink told the above-mentioned outlet: “I’m all about fun, and it was a lot of fuss.
“There were some personalities. Kim and Mya were nice.
“It was just…There were some annoying things happening that day.”
Fans on social media speculated Christina was the reason why Pink didn’t remember the making of Lady Marmalade so fondly.
However, Pink took to Twitter and specified: “Y’all are nuts. Xtina had s**t 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.
“I’m zero percent interested in your f**king drama. If you haven’t noticed, I’m a little busy selling.
“Also- I kissed xtinas mouth. I don’t need to kiss her a**.”
Pink went into further detail about the controversy during a sitdown with Chris Wallace on his eponymous HBO show.

“She [Christina] was upset that I was sitting in her chair and was going to shut down the entire production,” she recalled.
“I didn’t know I was sitting in her chair.… I was homeless at 15.
“Like, you can’t talk to me any kind of way. So you know, you picked the wrong one. But that’s over. It’s over.”
The singer and acrobat explained: “It is an interesting story but it probably happens every day in every workplace.
“Some people don’t get along and then they figure it out and they realize what’s important and they hug it out and they move on.”
In the midst of all the online chatter surrounding her up-and-down relationship with Christina, Pink directly addressed the former Disney star and stated via Instagram: “To Christina- you know where we stand.”

How did Pink and Christina’s feud start?
Both singers’ recollections of the Lady Marmalade music video differ from each other’s.
Pink remembers the conflict started when record label executives wanted to give Christina more verses on their shared single.
During her VH1 Behind the Music documentary, the former claimed: “Ron Fair walked in. He didn’t say hi to any of us and said, ‘What’s the high part? What’s the most singing part? Christina’s going to take that part.’
“I stood up, and I said, ‘Hi. How are you? So nice of you to introduce yourself. I’m Pink.
“She will not be taking that part. I think that’s what the f**king meeting’s about.'”
Christina gave her side of the events and shared with MTV: “It was almost like we were too much of the same person.
“When people are too much the same person, they kind of butt heads a little bit.
“She has a very sweet side to her, I haven’t seen too much of that.”
What did Pink say about Christina?
Although the two performers got off on the wrong foot, they both admitted to putting the conflict behind them when they crossed paths on NBC’s The Voice.
While she was chatting with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live, Pink shared: “We were super young and super new at the whole thing.
“I think I’m an alpha and she’s an alpha. We’re just very different.
“Women have to learn how to support each other, it’s not taught to us on the playground.
“She’s so talented and deep down, I’ve had bad days too. She’s a really sweet person, we made up on The Voice.
She added: “I hadn’t seen her in years and years, we became moms and grew up.
“We hugged it out, it’s really that simple. I feel really good about that.”
When asked if things ever got physical between her and the Genie in a Bottle singer, she confessed: “She swung on me in a club! It was funny, I laughed.”
How did Christina respond?
Christina sat down for her own WWHL interview and denied she tried to physically fight her fellow GRAMMY winner.
“It’s so funny because I know she had feelings about how the recording of Lady Marmalade went down.
“She intimidated me a lot! She’s a different person now, she’s a mom and she’s cool.
“I seem to have a different memory of a night we had at the club where we played spin the bottle.
“Look at her and look at me, I wouldn’t swing on her. She can beat my a**, are you kidding me?”
