Pink took to Instagram on Saturday to lament the recent press coverage of her early-2000s feud with Christina Aguilera.

The singer, who released her new album "Trustfall" earlier this month, posted a selfie with her son and penned a lengthy caption that directly addressed her recent comments and the controversy they've caused.

"While some of the responsibility lays with me and my inability to lie, and my uncanny ability to overshare- my real disappointment lies in the fact that the art can never be the focus when you're a woman," Pink wrote in the caption.

She further called out this perceived double standard later in the caption.

"I wonder when the last time Bradley Cooper or Robert Deniro were asked in interview after interview about any argument they'd ever had. How about Christian Bale?" the singer wrote.

She directly addressed Aguilera in her caption and wrote: "To Christina- you know where we stand. Resolved. Onwards and upwards."

The alleged feud between the pop singers was brought back to the forefront earlier this month when Pink commented on her difficulty making the 2001 "Lady Marmalade" video in an interview with BuzzFeed UK.

"It wasn't very fun to make," Pink told the outlet. "I'm all about fun, and it was a lot of fuss. There were some personalities. Kim and Mya were nice!" Pink said in a TikTok video clip from the interview.

Commenters were quick to call out the omission of Aguilera's name.

On February 18, Pink took to Twitter to respond to the social media stir she caused.

"I'm not 'shading' someone by telling it over and over and over what actually happened," Pink wrote in part to a since-deleted tweet.

Aguilera has not made any recent comments regarding her and Pink's relationship being brought up again.
