Pink thinks her one-time date Joey Fatone is "a sweet heart".
The 38-year-old singer-songwriter went on a date with the former NSYNC star during her first concert tour when she was just 19, and although their romance failed to work out, Pink retains positive memories of the experience.
The American musician – who has been married to Carey Hart since 2006 – told James Corden on the latest episode of ‘Carpool Karaoke’: "Joey Fatone used to come in my dressing room every day and visit with us, and he was such a sweet heart."
Joey had a crush on the singer and decided to ask her dad whether he could take the then-teenager out on a date.
Pink – who has daughter Willow, six, and 11-month-old son Jameson with her husband – recalled: "My dad actually thought Joey was very charming.
"[Joey] took me to Friendly’s. As a friendly date, not like, a date-date. I just wanted ice cream. We were in the friend zone."
Meanwhile, Pink recently admitted she struggles to balance her responsibilities as a parent with her music career.
The chart-topping star revealed she finds it difficult to leave her children behind when she goes off to work.
Pink said: "I would love to get rid of some of the mom guilt ’cause that really shades a lot of my decision-making.
"I walk out the door, I leave my heart behind and it is conflicting, it is always conflicting and I want to be the best mom in the world."
The ‘What About Us’ hitmaker also revealed she hopes to be seen as a source of inspiration for her children.
She shared: "I want to follow my passion too and I want my kids to see what it looks like to have a mom that is a boss.
"That is following her passion, that is working really hard towards her goals, but there is always a choice … it is a balance."
