When people first saw Lady Gaga come down from the rafters in the Super Bowl halftime show it was amazing. That’s easily what the first impression was. However, when Gaga came down and started doing her wire act people (including myself) couldn’t help but compare her to another entertainer known for doing high wire acts: Pink. In fact Pink is getting a little annoyed with the comparisons. It’s not because she’s upset with Gaga. In fact it’s the contrary. She’s quite proud of Gaga’s performance. It’s that she realizes there are much bigger fish to fry right now. So the singer took to Instagram to voice her opinion:
She wrote: “For the record: Let’s squash this before it even has a chance to be a thing… Lady Gaga killed it yesterday. Her voice was powerful and beautiful, her outfits were on point, choreography stellar, her heart was in it and she sang about love and inclusiveness, all in front of millions and millions of people.” Pink continued: “Let’s celebrate a woman who has the guts to jump off a roof and stand up there in the first place. Who cares if I flew first? Cause I didn’t! Cirque and Peter pan been in the air for years!” She then ended her post by expressing her disappointment with the regime of new President Donald Trump: “Now can we get back to the real controversy?” Pink wrote. “The one where our so called leader is stripping our humanity away minute by minute…”
There you have it. For the record Pink’s ability on a high wire far exceed Lady Gaga’s. You just gotta hand it to Gaga for even having the courage to go through with something like that when it could have gone terribly awry. Pink’s got a great point here. There’s much more going on in the world than something to provoke her into saying that Gaga’s a copycat. It was a great show, period.
