Pink pointed out that she has previously been criticised for looking ‘masculine’, despite having a career and talent that most could only dream of.

“But I said, ‘When people make fun of me, that’s what they use. They say that I look like a boy […] my body is too strong. I said to her, ‘Do you see me growing my hair?’

“‘No, Mama.’ ‘Do you see me changing my body?’ ‘No, Mama?’”

She then said she asked her daughter, “Do you see me selling out arenas all over the world?” To which Willow could clearly only respond as any of us would: “Yes, Mama.”

Pink’s refusal to submit to superficial criticism is beyond inspiring, but if you thought she was done with your heartstrings, you’re mistaken.
