About Pink
You’ve seen her perform her distinct brand of pop/dance with a rock influence and express her opinions about everyone from George W. Bush to Britney Spears. Pink has established herself as a pop vocalist who isn’t afraid to experiment and has a rock sense. She voiced her frustrations against George W. Bush in her contentious song “Dear Mr. President,” proposed to her motocross racer partner in the middle of a race with a large “Will you marry me?” sign, and dangled from the rafters during her “Glitter in the Air” performance at the 2010 Grammy Awards. This tattooed, outspoken diva certainly doesn’t fit the flowery, delicate stereotype that her stage name suggests.
Pink & Pretty
Alecia Beth Moore was raised in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, and left when she was 16 to follow her calling. She became a member of the girl group Choice and released the album Key to My Heart. The title tune from the album was used on the soundtrack for the 1996 film Kazaam, but that was pretty much the extent of their fame. In 1998, Moore struck out on her own under the stage name P!nk in homage to a Reservoir Dogs character.
Can’t Take Me Home, her debut solo album, was released in 2000. With help from big songs like “There You Go,” “Most Girls,” and “You Make Me Sick,” the album, which was partly produced by Babyface, was certified double platinum. The following year, Pink joined a girl group once more, this time for a special project. She recorded a cover of LaBelle’s “Lady Marmalade” for the Moulin Rouge! album alongside Christina Aguilera, Mya, and “Lil Kim.” Pink won her first Grammy for Best Pop Collaboration thanks to the song.
Missundaztood
Pink released her sophomore album, M!ssundaztood, in 2001 with the assistance of 4 Non Blondes producer Linda Perry. It was her way of giving the music industry the middle finger for making her feel like she had to fit into a pop star mold. However, her new style continued to win over admirers, as evidenced by the success of songs like “Get the Party Started,” “Just Like a Pill,” and “Don’t Let Me Get Me.”
Miss Many Problems
She received her first solo Grammy in 2003 for the song “Trouble” from her third album, Try This, for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. She then took a break for three years before beginning work on her fourth album. Before they reconciled in 2005, she broke up with motocross racer Carey Hart during that time. That year, she asked him to marry her by holding up a sign that read, “Will you marry me? ” at a race in California. I’m not kidding! In January 2006, they were married in Costa Rica after he accepted.
But when the couple split up in 2008, their relationship had a significant setback. In the same year, Hart made a sardonic cameo in her music video for the song “So What,” which featured lyrics like “I don’t want you” and “you’re a tool” and destroyed their romance. However, the breakup turned out to be short-lived, and a year later they were back together. This spring, the couple will give birth to a girl, their first child.
Pink keeps releasing hit after hit, including the compilation album Greatest Hits…So Far!!! from 2010, which emphasizes that she isn’t going anywhere. She is a fervent supporter of animal rights, belongs to PETA, and is also active with UNICEF and U2 frontman Bono‘s ONE Campaign.
“The problem was, I was labeled as trouble—so I was like, ‘trouble?’ I’ll show you trouble. You want trouble, well here it is!”
