Pink’s awe inspiring aerial routine at the Grammys not only wowed the crowd but it also propelled the pop rock singer’s album sales even higher. Her ‘Funhouse’ album is up to 30,000 to 32,000 in sales right now compared to last week’s 9000 and the track she performed ‘Glitter in the Air’ is up over 1,000 percent in the digital downloads. Congratulations to Pink! She’s a real talent and she deserves all the success she can get her hands on. I wonder if other artists would attempt to make other daring performances in hopes of replicating Pink’s sales success. That would be a hoot!

Pink’s on again off again husband paid tribute to his wife by inking a giant day of the dead themed tattoo of the singer’s face on his leg. Carey was tattooed at his Hart and Huntington Tattoo shop inside the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas where he plans to go in for another session to finish up the tattoo. Here’s to hoping that the couple would actually last. Otherwise, the tattoo would be for absolutely nothing and would only be a big pain to get laser tattoo removal for. I wonder what Pink thinks about the new ink. Wow, I rhyme.

According to Pink’s Twitter, she has a separated shoulder. The singer revealed “clarification- I DID NOT BREAK MY COLLARBONE. I SEPARATED MY SHOULDER. it kinda feels like 50 angry invisible demon fairies are stabbing me.” Ouch! The pop rock singer is being a professional about it though and is not letting her painful injury to stop her from performing on her current tour. Pink added “but the show will go on. it did last night. and i’d say it went pretty well:) thanks settle. loudest crowd we have had this tour.” Not that’s dedication! I hope Pink gets better really soon.

Britney Spears’s tour may be revolving around a circus theme but that doesn’t mean no one else can give it a try. I doubt that Pink will tour with a circus though but she has potential. She looks like a natural up on that trapeze. I think this may be some rehearsal for her upcoming ‘So What?’ world tour. Her last tour featured her performing some awesome aerial stunts. Pink makes it look so easy. I don’t care if the trapeze act will be part of the tour or if she’s just doing it for fun. She gives an amazing show, stunts or not.

The singer had this to say about the Buddhist belief: It’s my only truth that never changes. I believe in karma. I believe that it comes around in both ways. I’ve watched really good people have really hard times and then all of a sudden something beautiful happens. I’ve seen instant karma and I’ve seen karma that I think takes lifetimes, and I’ve felt a lot of it.” Well of course karma is real, that’s why so many people suffer in poverty and all these celebrities who contribute to society in such an indispensable way make 80 million dollars a year. What karma could be predicted for them: catching the plague in the next ten years? But I guess that’s the good stuff to come for the poor people. You know, to put them out of their misery.

With the world reeling under an economic and financial crisis singer Pink has taken upon herself that she would do her bit for a greener world knowing ticket sales for her shows would suffer as well. So what is she actually up to – gardening!

And it seems she’s really into it, on her promo video for her new single ‘So What’ she can be seeing tending to veggies and herbs in her very own garden and its said that she refuses any sort of help.

She said: “I have an organic vegetable garden with four raised beds. I grow cucumbers, tomatoes, melons, jalapeno peppers, spinach, kale and chillies. I also grow sunflowers, marigolds and herbs like basil and marjoram.”

Goodness gracious me, that’s really the first time I have ever heard some punk waste singer do some good stuff for Mother Nature. She does it all on her own sans any support staff and when some jerk ass said that her hobby was completely uncool her responsive was an ignorant smile. That’s the way Pink, need more like you but not like the way to dress sometimes.

P!nk co-wrote each song and worked with everyone from Max Martin to Tony Kanal (of No Doubt) to Butch Walker on what she calls her “most vulnerable album to date.” With its mix of sad, thoughtful love songs and fun, upbeat, feisty rock anthems. P!nk achieved exactly what she wanted to on Funhouse. “It feels good to get people not just emoting and releasing all that energy, but getting angry and motivated too. It’s group therapy.” Pre-order Funhouse now at iTunes and get a bonus track!

P!nk has never been afraid to speak her mind, bare her soul, and share her deepest feelings in her songs. As she casually confers, “I have no choice. It’s what I do.” Indeed, it is what P!nk does. And, her 23 million in album sales, two Grammy Awards, five MTV Video Music Awards, and eight top 10 hit singles are proof that the tattooed badass with the heart of a pussycat does what she does well. But, with her fifth studio album, Funhouse (Oct. 28 via LaFace/Zomba), P!nk gets even more personal, more exposed, and more revealing.
On her current radio smash “So What,” P!nk gets real once again but this time it’s infused with her trademark humor as evidenced by such funny-honest lyrics as “I guess I just lost my husband/I don’t know where he went/So I’m gonna drink my money/I’m not gonna pay his rent.” Having her ex, Carey Hart, in the Dave Meyers-directed video diffused some of the reaction to the lyrical content. “At first I was kind of irked because everyone was like, ‘Well, wait. I thought the split was amicable and now she’s talking shit about him?! What the @#$%’ It’s hypocritical.’ But once everyone saw the video and saw that Carey was in it, it shut everybody up, which was lovely,” explains P!nk, who collaborated with Max Martin once again for this track. “Carey hadn’t heard the song before he did the video. That’s how much he trusts and loves me. He pretty much just rolls his eyes, throws his hands up in the air, and hugs me. He gets it. He gets me. It’s nice.”

Vanessa Hudgens has received the first review of her sophomore album ‘Identified’, which comes out on July 1, from Entertainment Weekly. Vanessa said of the album that “[The album] is definitely sophisticated. But it’s also funky and fun–something that I would, like, actually listen to.” I’m not sure who really reviews the album here. Of the three tracks EW listed, most of the reviews of the songs came pretty much from Vanessa herself. The songs they heard were her first single off the album ‘Sneakernight’, the Dr. Luke (Kelly Clarkson, Pink) produced sassy anthem ‘First Bad Habit’ and the stripped-down ballad ‘Gone with the Wind’.

Pink has been out of the limelight for a little bit but that doesn’t mean she’s quitting her job.

The colorful singer who sported what I would guess is her natural blonde color made a surprise appearance at the Key Club in West Hollywood on Monday night to join the cover band Metal Skool in singing Skid Row’s ’18 to Life’.

All the time away from the stage didn’t deter the singer though because everyone at the club would be with me in saying that she absolutely rocked it.

And if her appearance wasn’t enough, the performance featured another surprise cameo. And it was quite surprising, if not, a bit weird. Juliette Lewis came up to jam with Pink and Metal Skool on the performance as well.
