Pink appears to be doubling down on her criticism of Macklemore.

The singer, whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore-Hart, drew backlash after she slammed Macklemore for his political statements as he opened for Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour over the weekend.

Taking to her Instagram Stories, Pink shared a post which criticised Macklemore for turning a “mainstream event into a political nightmare” and called for “apologies and refunds.”

While some fans commended Pink for her stance, others called her out. But the So What hitmaker appeared to double down by sharing a series of pointed memes to her Stories.

“Being liked by everyone is a clown’s job,” read one post, while another quipped, “If they want to paint you as the villain…then pose.”

A third post noted, “If my honesty offends you imagine how much I can’t stand your bulls**t.”

At the same time, Pink turned off her instagram comments. Moreover, she did not shy away from celebrating her birthday, which fell on Monday, September 7.

In a joint post with a fan account, the Grammy-winner celebrated her 47th birthday along with a heartfelt message penned by the fan account.

“From a lil toddler to teenager to young adult to now, you have achieved so much, and have helped so many people in their life’s through your music! [sic],” the post read.

The birthday wish went on to praise Pink for not only being a “rockstar” but also “an amazing mother” to her and Carey Hart’s two kids.
