Pink Wouldn’t Write Songs For Britney

July 16th, 2007 // 7 Comments

Pink is obsessed with Britney, much like the rest of us. She’s already mentioned her in a song. And she’s always name-dropping her as someone she wants to avoid being lumped in with. I wouldn’t worry about it. Britney likes snack food, and you like switchblades and sometimes the ladies. Anyway, she says she wouldn’t write a song for her. But she would for Faith Hill? Gawd.

“(It’s) not because I don’t like (Spears) — I do think she’s crazy enough to do one of my songs,” Pink said, reports WENN. “But it’s very hard for me to let go of my songs and the only people I write for are real singers — not that she’s not a real singer, but she’s more of an entertainer.”

Pink says Spears doesn’t have enough attitude. “When I mean real singers, I mean the likes of Lauryn Hill, Faith Hill,” she explained. “And I’d write for Amy Winehouse, because you need serious attitude to carry off the dumb stuff I write about.”

Well, at least she acknowledges the essential dumbness of pop. But Faith Hill? “Breathe”? Dumpy yet sorta hot husband? Cheesy country pop? Jesus, aim higher.

    PINKY Bud — Hate to say it, but it’s this type of comment that comes back and bites you in the A$$. You are no better than any of the rest of the pop singers. Get over yourself.

    She better have changed that line “Tired of being compaired, to damn Britney Spears, she’s so pretty, that just aint me”!!! Hell no, it aint you, but it sure as hell isnt her either!!! All her songs are shite now though, she definitely peaked with her Misunderstood album.

    Pink is POP! She’s just another Brittney or Jessica with a punk rock hairdo. How delusional to think she is in the same league as Lauren Hill & Winehouse.
