Pink slams ‘hateful’ post comparing her to Eddie Izzard

Pink did not hold back

Taking to X (formerly known as Twitter) the anonymous user tweeted the American singer writing: "Happy birthday Pink."

Nothing overly humiliating there you'd think, however the man also included a picture of legendary British comedian, Eddie Izzard.

Instead of ignoring the comparison, Pink quickly responded to the troll writing: "Thank you so much. I just showed my 12 year old daughter your post.

"I explained to her that I've never met you, I don't know you, and I have no idea why you would go out of your way to be hateful.

"It was a good lesson in ignorance. Thank you. I still don't know you. Congrats. You're no one."

Burn.

Pink did, however, continue to say that despite the haters, most people are pretty "rad", saying: "What these kind of people are are anonymous, lonely, And Miserable. But most people are smart, good, and rad."

Pink also explained that the troll had missed a great opportunity to really have a go saying: "MOST IMPORTANTLY - what a wasted opportunity here. There are many pictures you could've chosen that were actually me that were worse than this picture you nameless f****. At least be creative next time dum dum."

Pink concluded in another tweet: "I post these things to show the kids I know - my own kids as well, that we are all occasionally treated badly. I show them because they know me, and they know that my self-esteem does Not rely on the opinions of others. Nor does it rely on how many tickets I sell. Good/bad. Whatever.

"I love Me. Now I shall Sleep really really Well. Night night."

Izzard, the iconic British comedian who has gone by she/her pronouns since 2020, is yet to comment on the matter.
