I grew up in the 90s and was distracted by boybands and found Pinks music genetic and nothing special.

I've just watched her tribute to Sinead O'Connor and her duets with Kelly Clarkson and I'm blown away by her as a performer and a person.

I actually really liked her RnB early stuff. That was an exciting time in music when everyone was going for that sound.
I did read that she had spoken out about aging more naturally which I personally appreciate as she’s a just few years younger than me. I’m sick to the back teeth of seeing my favourites looking frozen or just totally not themselves (Gwen Stefani 😭) and I’m all about embracing aging so - good.

I didnt like gwen then but I do like now gwen and Blake.

I’ve seen her live and she was amazing. Her acrobatic stunts while singing perfectly were incredible.

I really like her and think she's very talented.

Not remotely interested in her yanking her daughter into the limelight and I feel the same about Beyonce as well.

I didn’t like that either until I saw her daughter sing live at one of the summer shows and her daughter seemed to love it.

I always thought she was good until I saw her live and genuinely it was the best show I have ever seen.

I'm 36 and I used to love her music...but I can't stand her as a person now and I'm not too keen on her music now either.

Can I ask why?

@WildUnchartedWaters
I find her new music boring and Whilst I'm pro choice I don't like her cold hearted approach to abortion, she seems like one of those celebrities who have been paid to spread an agenda. Very aggressive with it too.

@WildUnchartedWaters no with her social media posts.

I love her too. Love the song run. Her new song when I get there she wrote for her dad who died.

I’ve been in love with her from the beginning, I was fortunate enough to see her Fun House tour which was amazing. I’m also loving her new album I feel she’s constantly changing and evolving and her family are just so cute.
P!nk forever ❤️

I was 11 when Gareth gates broke my heart by coming 2nd ;) @SleepingStandingUp

Ah you're younger than me then, I had a bf by then and everything 🤣🤣 that's why I'M 42 and have seen her live 4 times. Older and wiser 😁😁

fullbloom87 · 03/08/2023 00:36

@WildUnchartedWaters
While you're at it take a look at her stance on vaccine mandates. She's one of those celebs who thinks her opinion counts and is powerful because she's famous.

I like her voice and she seems like a nice person, but I do find her “I’m such a tough girl, you don’t want to mess with me” vibe a bit tired at this point

I've never really listened to her music tbf, but the riot grrl look just put me right off.

GlitchStitch · 03/08/2023 00:38

She's currently touring the US with brandi carlile and that's a show i would love to see.

I've always loved Pink, but Brandi Carlile is my favourite female artist ever, and criminally underrated. Together they must be amazing, I saw them sing Nothing Compares 2 U together as a tribute and it was beautiful.

fullbloom87 · 03/08/2023 00:38

So whilst she's massively pro choice and believes In 'your body your choice' she also spoke out about how people should be forced to be vaccinated. A bit of a hypocrite if you ask me. I don't think celebrities should get involved in health or politics personally.

I absolutely adore her. She’s such a great example of a strong confident woman doing motherhood and living her life.

I love so many of her songs, but I have a young daughter and find the lyrics to All I Know So Far so powerful - gives me a lump in my throat whenever I hear it!

I'd find it really odd to have such a huge personality in showbiz for so long have to be this one dimensional person who's not really allowed to express political opinions. I mean I wanna know who I'm spending all that dinner ticket money on. I want to know what size she is on the Us abortions limits thing. Not to mention how it influences certain some (Dear Mr President for example). She's not a sticker in a teen magazine, she's a real live human , even if you think her music is shit, her style is wank and her politics are the wrong side
I'd want to know

That actually put me off a bit she was pregnant and whilst of course pregnant women can have sex, it just, no.
