Pink has once again been forced to defend an Instagram a photo of her children – this time of them running through the Holocaust Memorial in Berlin.
The photo, which features Pink’s daughter Willow, 8, and son Jameson, 2, was posted on Sunday, alongside other pictures the singer took while visiting Berlin. Pink shares Willow and Jameson with her husband Carey Hart.
“For all of the comments; these two children are in actuality Jewish, as am I and the entirety of my mothers family. The very person who constructed this believed in children being children, and to me this is a celebration of life after death,” Pink said. “Please keep your hatred and judgment to yourselves,” she continued.
Many of Pink’s fans and fellow stars also came to her defense, including actress Selma Blair. “I love Berlin too. I love that what happened is not being forgotten,” Selma wrote. “I love this celebration of life. I love you.”
Another commenter also noted that the architect of the memorial, Peter Eisenman, said that “children playing there is a good thing and that it is no contrast to the place.” The commenter added, “Children doing children stuff and enjoying their childhood is in fact a good thing there.”
In April Pink said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that she was done posting pictures of her children after receiving backlash for a photo that featured herself, Willow and Jameson with a pelican. Pink was criticized about Jameson not wearing a diaper.
“People went as far as saying someone should call child services because he didn’t have a diaper on and how dare I…some of the nastiest things,” she said at the time.
“I cried so hard after that because I like to share my family. It’s my proudest moment in my whole life. I’m prouder of my kids than anything I’ve ever done.”
