P!nk wants to make one thing very, very clear: she did not shade Christina Aguilera at the American Music Awards.
The singer's reaction face to Aguilera's Whitney Houston tribute on Sunday's show went viral, with many interpreting the look as one of shock or confusion. She tried the straighten everything out right away on Twitter, saying "Christina f-cking killed it" and adding she was "in awe" of her talent, but apparently that wasn't enough to silence the haters.

The Only 7 Moments from the 2017 American Music Awards Anyone Will Be Buzzing About
View StoryAfter seeing tweets about her "stank face" towards X-Tina all day long, P!nk once again took to social media on Monday night in an attempt to quiet the chatter once and for all.
"Waking up to see a newly created riff between myself and another incredible woman, Christina, who took on an incredible feat, who I support fully, makes me so sad. You all perpetuate keeping women apart b/c you're afraid of the power we have when we get together," she wrote. "I choose to remember last night as being a celebration of women, of Diana, of Whitney, of love and life and joy and all things good. THANK YOU to everyone that had the courage to take that stage - wether it be right side up or sideways. All love."

The two singers had a longstanding pop culture beef, one that was squashed on "The Voice" earlier this year. P!nk recently spoke out about their differences on "Watch What Happens Live," where she said they both have alpha personalities and were both "super young and super new" when they began their singing careers around the same time. She also added they may have a new song coming out together: "We may or may not have already collaborated. I don't know if I'm allowed to say that, but I did."
Aguilera's tribute in honor of the 25th anniversary of "The Bodyguard" drew mixed reaction on social media, with some praising the performance and others absolutely brutalizing it on Twitter.
