Stefani also went on to share her own post, captioning the video, “@pink u are such a superhero – thank u for allowing me to share the stage with u !!! 💗🎉 i love u gx”
Pink and Stefani have been friends for over ten years. Their collaboration at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in 2012, where they delivered an unforgettable rendition of No Doubt’s “Just a Girl,” has remained a cherished memory. Pink has since incorporated this mash-up with her own hit single “Funhouse” into her concerts.
Pink and Stefani reunited on stage during Pink’s Beautiful Trauma World Tour in 2018 for a special rendition of the duet version of “Just a Girl.” This memorable performance took place during the tour’s stop in Los Angeles, further solidifying their friendship.
Earlier this year, Pink shocked the world after she revealed that she and Stefani were originally invited to perform with Madonna in their epic 2003 MTV Video Music Awards performance where she kissed Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears. “I think we all were [invited],” said Pink at the time. “I think Madonna wanted to kiss all of us. I was in Costa Rica at the time, having all kinds of fun with my boyfriend Carey Hart. Gwen Stefani was also invited, I remember. It was a bunch of us.”
