What’s a summer vacation without a little stomach churn? P!nk shared over the weekend that she took a holiday recently and got hit with a nasty bug that almost derailed her plans. “When you go on vacation and have food and E coli decides to move into your gut you kill it with friends and red wine. and a vitamin IV concoction,” she wrote on Instagram in a post that accompanied a picture of P!nk relaxing on a couch sipping wine while hooked up to a drip bag filled with fluids.

The slide was overlaid with the message “This is all normal and everything is going really well,” as well as the caption, “Ahhh life and lemons and lemonade and great memories that I might remember.”

According to the Cleveland Clinic, E. coli is a “group of bacteria that can cause infections in your gut (GI tract), urinary tract and other parts of your body. Most of the time, it can live in your gut without hurting you. But some strains can make you sick with watery diarrhea, vomiting and a fever.”

Last month, P!nk took to Instagram to clear up a few rumors, including the fake news that she has a song coming out title “Gorilla.” Speaking directly to camera, the singer said, “I mean I wish I did, I’m so curious,” she said about the made-up track. “I’m not singing for football games… or people… fans? I dunno, football fans at a football game? I dunno. It’s not happening, these are all fake stories.”

P!nk is taking a well-deserved break after her 2023-2024 Summer Carnival world tour earned nearly $700 million and sold more than 4.8 million tickets across 128 shows.

Billboard Canada 2025 Power Players List Revealed

By Richard Trapunski, Rosie Long Decter, Peony Hirwani, Stefano Rebuli and Heather Taylor-Singh

Billboard Canada Power Players is back for a second year, and it comes at a pivotal time for Canadian music. Canadian Content regulations – a principle that built the domestic industry – are up for review for the first time in a generation, with ongoing hearings taking place with the CRTC. The Online Streaming Act, meanwhile, is attempting to regulate major foreign streaming services to contribute to CanCon as the CRTC once did for radio, but companies like Spotify, Amazon and Apple Music aren't taking it without a fight.

Those issues shadow the industry, which has both struggles and successes. The country was recently named the 8th largest music market in the world by the IFPI and Toronto has emerged as a marquee live music market. That's been reflected in the successes and investments in new venues by companies like Live Nation Canada, MLSE and Oak View Group, though some festivals and promoters outside of their orbit have gone public with their own struggles.
