Pink Denies Being Bisexual on Twitter
May 4, 2009 – According to Perez Hilton, “Pink is bisexual.” According to Pink it’s “100% fabrication.” The famous blogger says that the singer admitted to UK’s News of the World, "I'm not embarrassed about being bisexual. This is who I am. Love is pure and I try to keep it that way. This is who I am, what I feel. I think it's unnecessary to draw the subject out, but I think it even more stupid not to discuss it. It seems as if bisexuality is a trend and I should whip up the masses. Well, I don't believe in trends, I just believe in me."

The problem with that is that Pink says it’s all crap. Here is what she posted on her own Twitter account, “I just read that i'm bisexual. so 1991. Good thing people write articles about me so I can get my facts str8. I mean straight. read on people” then she said “PerezHilton 100% FABRICATION,” adding “ cant WAIT for the day when people stop talking about sexual preference or that a woman is a CEO and actually start making the world LIVEABLE”

Pink Not Interested in Britney Spears Comparisons     Bookmark and Share
April 28, 2009 – Last year when Pink was putting together plans for her ‘Funhouse’ album and tour, she was excited at such an original idea, something fresh and exiting that had a big-top theme. That’s until Britney Spears came back.  "Had I known that certain other people were going to base their latest thing about circus things, I probably would have went into another direction," Pink told Associated Press. "I was six months before that and didn't really understand that it was a trend that was happening. I'm pretty out of the loop."

With Spears’ ‘Circus’ album and tour (which started in March) on the road at the same time as Pink, could there be any confusion? Well, let’s see Britney never seems to sing live, has exposed numourous x-rated body parts during her gigs and even had a flapping tampon incident in the last week. Pink, who did film her nipple piercing years ago, has had a less successful but much more respected recording career. Her gritty tunes seem like more of an expression of her true personality than Britney’s media spins. Oh, yeah and Pink isn't nuts.

Pink understands that the Britney comparisons will dog her throughout the tour (tickets go on sale this Saturday) but she’s also fielding as many questions about her ex-husband Carey Hart. The media seems fixed on the idea that the pair plan to remarry, “I don't know where the remarriage thing came from,” she says, "That kind of came out of the air. We are definitely back together." – by Kari Graham
