Ever wondered why Pink and Mary J. Blige are yet to collaborate?
Well, today brings with it the answer to your question.
Details below…
In an interview with the ‘Morning Mashup’, Pink revealed that she hoped to work with Mary but was startled to learn that Mary wasn’t interested.
I went in her trailer a long time ago, I think it was when I hosted the Lady of Soul Train, or Soul Train Awards. I walked into her trailer and I was like, ‘Hi! Would you ever work with me?’ She just took one look at me and she goes, ‘No.’ I go, ‘Okay. I love you, Mary. I’ll see you again.’”
Mary is yet t0 respond.
Mary… your loss. Stupid move.
How so? Mary J Blige ain’t hurting even after her divorce..
I don’t think so. This happened back in 2000 when Pink was a still a LaFace Records experiment and Mary was working with the likes of Elton John and Aretha Franklin. Pink was loud, over the top, and had that ridiculous fake “Black accent,” which to some probably came off as a mockery or gimmick (go search her interviews from 2000). If Mary didn’t know her, what makes anyone think she’d be ok with saying “Yes” to a collaboration or ok with a complete stranger coming into her trailer?
It is Mary’s gain. Pink was trying to use Mary’s celebrity for her benefit and Mary blocked her.
That I Can Love You ❤️ video is giving me eternal LIFE lol..what a bop! ?
That sounds just like Mary. ?????
That was probably at a time when Pink wasn’t a superstar yet. Mary was just looking at Pink as a rising star, not good enough for a working partner. Also Mary probably thought of their music as two far apart for anything to work. I’m sure she regrets it now. If she remembers she said it in the first place.
Why would Mary regret that? Mary is a huge star in her own right.
Duh. I mean she probably would love to work with Pink and try something different.
I doubt that. Mary is not thinking about old man-faced Pink.
The only one that would benefit from that is Pink. Saying a colab is “trying something different” for Mary means you nothing about Mary’s catalogue and the “different” artists she has already worked with like Stevie Wonder, U2, Elton John, George Michael, Aretha, Whitney, Chaka Kahn, Toni Braxton, KD Lang, Rod Stewart, john Bon Jovi, Seal, Steve Winwood, and countless other artists.
Actually do there voices mesh well together??
I met Mary backstage at an event years ago and she seemed crazy to me, i’m sorry if your a stan of hers but She was pure looney. Great talent and great emotional voice like a young Gladys without the range but straight looney
Pink never lies.
Shut up racist f a g g o t.
Hell nah lol
I thought of Sofia from The Color Purple when I read your comment lol
Mary was just being real. Why should the two of them work together? They don’t at all match. Their styles would totally clash. The song would be a mess.
And that bish had the nerve to say sh!t about xtina’s behavior?
Am glad p!nk said that and exposed her ass .. mokey j blige
“M***** J blige”, really? Spoken like an ignorant, insecure, inbred, halfwit.
Exactly!!!!
@mr.m Shut up racist f a g g o t. Go back to kissing that man-faced looking Pink’s pink a s s and never come for Queen Mary again! Bow down and humble yourself.
Shut up p**. Everything Mary said about Britney Spears and Christina was true. Britney “may not sing or be as talented” as Ctina but she went further because of how she treated people.
I bet she’ll change her mind now… Mary need a hit worse than a crackhead! Pink is dope! She should reconsider!
Mary is hip hop soul/R&B royalty with 25 legendary years under her belt. She ain’t worried about Pinks generic d*** ass.
Mary does not need to work with Pink. I doubt their voices would mesh and that is a bad idea in the first place.
yall sitting here talking ish calling her m***** and other disrespectful things are the real m***** don’t project yourself onto mary. This might have been a time when Mary was going through stuff and I can only imagine how annoying ass pink probably came off and mary wouldn’t have known her well. The question I have is has she reached out to mary recently she talkin bout some 90 early 2000’s stuff and that’s two diff Mary’s so get the facts before yall jump on sista’s back.
Thank you! Mary haven’t performed on soul train in years. So it had to be way back.
Old crack head probably was hi as fuq. Pink it’s ok don’t worry about that flop bixtch.
Respect Queen Mary gutter troll b|tch! You don’t hear Mary fans talking or even thinking about that old hard-man-faced looking Pink who claims to be in her late 30s but looks like she is 45-50. Mary does not have to work with your fav if she does not want to. Their voices don’t mesh.
Lol Mary don’t know her. Still doesn’t.
But why is Pink bringing up sh*t from almost 20 years ago? There must be more to this story that goes beyond just a simple “Hi Mary will you work with me?” Pink ain’t no damn innocent victim. And trust & believe Mary will respond with the truth soon. Pnk don’t want it from Mary so she better chill.
Exactly!
I don’t think so. This happened back in 2000 when Pink was a still a LaFace Records experiment and Mary was working with the likes of Elton John and Aretha Franklin.

I love Mary but P!nk wouldn’t lie.
Pink lied about a lot of things. Just google it. She also is very fake. What happened to her fake black accent she used to talk with? Why does she claim to be 38 but looks 45-50?
I honestly can’t imagine them on a duet. Their styles are way to different and on opposite ends of the spectrum. I doubt either one of them have the versatility and/or desire to alter their style into something that would bring them closer to being cohesive.
At least Mary didn’t front, she’s been in the business long enough to know which collaborations make sense and which ones would not.
That is weird. But, oh well. Pink is STILL here and STILL slaying.
Good for Mary.
Mary shady ???
MARY was probably in her feelings this is doing the time Pink was dating Treach; and Treach was Mary’s old boo thang
I am sure Mary regrets that decision today.
Respect Queen Mary gutter troll b|tch! You don’t hear Mary fans talking or even thinking about that old hard-man-faced looking Pink who claims to be in her late 30s but looks like she is 45-50. Mary does not have to work with your fav if she does not want to. Their voices don’t mesh.
Well I’d like to think some artists give a chance to up and coming singers before they become huge. Instead of jumping on the wagon without taking a risk. That was my point.
Mary started somewhere at some point. And I’m sure she would have appreciated to collabo with an established artist or at least someone being nice to her and giving her advices versus acting bitchy.
Pink didn’t say anything wrong about Mary btw, she was being goofy as most of the time.

Mary would probably collab with her now. But it is normal tahts he didn´t want to 15 years ago. Pink wa snobody and they don´t really suit. Nothing wrong with Mary saying no. It made no sense.
Even a dump would turn down your classless ass. Try again.
@TheTruth Classless? You are the gutter troll b|tch whining about how Mary said NO to working with your man-faced fav. The only classless one is YOU ugly troll. Mary kept it classy and her fans keep it classy by not even thinking about ugly fake a** Pink. Pink is low-class for even bringing up this old dirt with the intention to make Mary look bad for rejecting her ugly a z z. BTW I don’t go to “dumps”…that is where ugly trolls like you live and thrive. I hope you stay in the dump where you belong gutter troll b|tch.
I don´t know. There´s something about Pink I don´t feel that authentic? Or even if she is, why say this now? It makes Mary look bad and after 15 years or more it is totally uncalled for. Even if she didn´t say it with any purpose at all. You can sty classy and keep some things. Of course she has no problem with collaborating with “fantastic” people like Eminem on top of that. And more importantly, her music is so bland. Safe comercial pop-rock. Nothing else.
Honestly…..
I don’t think Pink would work with Mary J now even if Mary wanted to do something.
NOW……Pink and Fantasia should mos def do something together.
Or Jessie J and Fantasia……oh or better yet Fantasia, Jessie J and Pink! OMG!
Pink does not have that option. Mary said NO. No means No and not “ill think about it” or “maybe later.”
??? Mary SAVAGE AF!!
This was 17 years ago. Maybe Pink is remembering it differently now,
True
Yes! Pink is making bank while Mary is still pandering to the ol’ “steal your music cause I don’t give a sht about black music” crowd. I love it when life works out fairly. C’mon Mary put out another one of those screeching like a banshee wild hyena albums for your “fans” to steal.
