In Pink’s acceptance speech for her Icon honor, she noted that “Kelly Clarkson singing” with her felt “like a Christmas miracle,” and she referred to the “Since U Been Gone” artist as one of the “greatest voices alive.”
She also opened up about vulnerability as a superpower and what inspires her to create music. “Every room I walk into, my heart walks in first. Every lyric that I write is my heart crying, raging hoping, screaming, pleading,” she said. “You have watched me do this, sifting through life’s messiness for almost 25 years. Some of you find what I do annoying, and some of you find it brave, and I just find it necessary.”

Pink went on, “Vulnerability means the ability to be wounded. I have decided to make vulnerability my life’s work, and for those of you that have joined me on this adventure, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m grateful to be alive. I’m grateful I get to do this with my one precious life.” (Congrats!)
