Pink has spoken out after facing heavy backlash for reposting a call for Macklemore to apologize and be dropped from Ed Sheeran's tour following his nightly pro-Palestinian statements and songs on stage. After initially falling silent amid the criticism, Pink issued an extended statement saying she was 'standing up for my own people' and that the isolation she's faced has been 'lonelier' than she expected.
