Brief biography of Pink: years of youth
Alisha was born in the American city of Abington, Pennsylvania in 1979. Her mother, Judith Moore, was a nurse, and her father, James Moore Jr., was a soldier who served in the Vietnam War. She also has a younger brother, Jason Moore.
Alisha's father is a Catholic of German and Irish descent, and her mother is Jewish, as her ancestors are immigrants from Germany, Lithuania and Ireland.
At the age of 10, a misfortune occurs in the biography of the singer Pink - her parents file for divorce.
The girl spent her childhood in the Doylestown district, where she attended elementary school at Kutz School, then secondary school at Lenape and higher education at Central Bucks West High School.
From a very young age, Pink dreamed of being a rock star, and when her strong vocal voice was discovered, her chances of achieving her dream increased a hundredfold. In addition, her father also had a love for music: he played the guitar and performed compositions for his precious daughter.
Despite the fact that Alisha has been developing her voice since childhood, she was unlucky to catch asthma at an early age, which greatly interfered with both her health and the creative process.
During her teenage years, her way of expressing her feelings was to write poetry, some of which her mother called "introspective and, at times, nervous."
Pink's first serious attempt to appear on stage was back in school, when she joined a group called Middleground, competing with The Jetsists. But when the second won, the first soon disintegrated.
The nickname “Pink” in her biography stuck with her from a young age. You might think that she got it because of her favorite shade of hair, but in fact the reasons for the nickname were the girl’s constant embarrassment and blush. Another theory says that her friends gave her such a name in honor of the hero Mr. Pink in the film “Reservoir Dogs” by Quentin Tarantino.
Fun fact about Pink: her idols are Madonna and Janis Joplin. According to the artist, as a child she considered herself the first daughter.

Pink or Alisha Beth Moore was a completely ordinary child as a child until her parents filed for divorce. It was then that all the originality of the future star began to break out.
Pink - Snow White from the Slums
Singer Pink is the fruit of the former love of two completely different people. Alisha's mother was Jewish and worked as a nurse, and her father was an avid Catholic who was a Vietnam War veteran.
The parents often quarreled, there were constant scandals in the family, however, this did not become the reason for the birth of another child - the singer’s brother Jason.
While the family was bound by marriage, the father constantly worked with his daughter Alisha, sang songs for her and played the guitar. Such music lessons became for the girl not just the beginning of a musical career, but a kind of push to move on and still achieve her dream of becoming a rock star.
After her parents’ divorce, Pink seemed to have been replaced: at the age of 9, she was already confidently holding a cigarette in her hands, and by the age of 11, drugs also crept into her life - everything, like a typical rocker, according to society.
As a teenager, Pink experienced many feelings. She found an outlet only in poetry. Judith Moore, the mother of the future show business star, says about her daughter’s work: “Alisha’s first works are introspective recordings. Most of the poems for me were dark, but also very deep. This depth made me nervous.”

Called to be free
Having joined the Choice group at the age of 16, Alisha confidently walked towards her dream and, accordingly, fame. Unfortunately or fortunately, the stars decided Pink’s fate differently, and she failed to succeed as a singer in the group - Choice broke up.
Pink began working on her solo career and creating her own stage and life image.
Pink decided to start conquering the musical Olympus with a pseudonym. An extraordinary presentation of a banal “pink” word through an exclamation mark - P!nk. There are many rumors around the pseudonym about its origin, but the singer herself states that she does not like either her real name or the colored pseudonym.
By 2000, millions of people began listening to Pink thanks to her debut single “Can`t Take Me Home.” It was this album that allowed the singer to attract the attention of the whole world - of course, “a white girl sings as if she were black.” Pink's music evoked delight, and the singer's behavior on stage made the viewer feel all the emotions poured out into the songs. Just look at Pink's song "Fuckin'nPerfect".
Pink - all so...
... Impetuous
“Boredom has no chance when I appear,” the self-confident and outrageous star never tires of repeating after her next breakthrough. That's what she said when she was first nominated for a Grammy, and she took the same phrase as her life motto.

... Daring
Pink has always promoted vegetarianism and was a member of the RUTA society, which advocates the ethical treatment of animals.
The singer was not ashamed of either Prince William or even Her Majesty Elizabeth II.
In a written appeal, Alisha criticized the royal fox hunt, and sent a protest to Queen Elizabeth against the use of natural fur in the Honorable Artillery Company and the Guards Infantry.
The singer Beyoncé did not remain without attention and contempt from the shocking Pink. In one of the issues, News of the World publicly expressed her disgust at her colleague on stage for being a fan of fur clothing.
...Controversial
Pink demonstrated a special flurry of her originality to the whole world when she endlessly changed her image. As soon as the covers of magazines began to be full of headlines with the name of the singer, fans immediately began to tremble. Pink, one of the five most beautiful pop singers, has always been able to stand out among those around her. She managed to simultaneously feel great in an evening dress and on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
... Scandalous
Shocking is the second calling of a singer after music. She loves to provoke scandals and then “finish off” her victim with a dance.
Britney Spears was once targeted by Pink. Having become the queen of pop music at the beginning of the new century and relegating the singer to the background, Alisha allowed herself to insult her. Britney had a hard time: Pink managed to use words, like a knife blade, to walk through the singer’s artificial and unnatural places, and then bring her to complete bewilderment by sending a bouquet of roses to her dressing room.

... Desperate
Tired of loneliness, in 2005 Pink firmly decided to get married and tie the knot. At a motocross competition where her lover was performing, the singer decided to take a desperate step and was the first to propose marriage to her chosen one.
Carey Hart could not refuse after this: in the hands of his beloved girl there was a sign with the inscription “Will you marry me?” (Will you marry me?)
The lovers did an equally courageous act after their engagement. Pink and Carey got matching tattoos, writing two words on their wrists - Tru Luv. The inscription is translated into Russian as “true love.”
... Purposeful
The desire to achieve her goals never left Pink. The singer achieved the main dream of her life, but she was also not afraid to waste her time on less significant goals.
After the birth of her beloved daughter, Pink gained about 30 kg, but the thought of the upcoming tour forced the pop star to start working on herself again. Having gathered her will into a fist, Pink again turned to jogging and cycling in order to achieve an ideal figure and again appear ideal in front of her fans.
Now the singer’s popularity has noticeably dropped, but this does not mean that her music has become obsolete. It is a mistake to believe that only her old fans will now listen to Pink - the list of fans is constantly growing, and the concerts are still sold out.

In February 2008, the singer's agent reported information to People magazine about the couple's separation. However, in March 2009, Hart announced that he was dating his wife again, and a year later Pink herself announced the restoration of the relationship.

Pink's personal life
They will quarrel and then make up...
There were many rumors about the star’s personal life, but the most true were those that discussed an affair with motorcycle racer Carey Hart. They met when Hart took part in the filming of the singer's video, and much later they began dating. They say that she was the first to invite her boyfriend to formalize the relationship. Pink wrote on the sign with the question: “Will you marry me?”, and on the back: “I’m not kidding!” The newlyweds held their wedding in a Costa Rican paradise - it was in 2006.
However, clouds soon appeared on the horizon of this seemingly cloudless happiness, and in 2008 the press reported the breakup of Pink and Carey. The singer even filmed a video clip in which she and her husband were getting divorced (although there was no official dissolution of the marriage).
