I'm very involved with PETA - People for Ethical Treatment of Animals - and Greenpeace and a lot of women's shelter and clothing giveaways.
I turned down Prince William's invitation for me to sing at his birthday bash because he was spearing animals in Africa and bringing publicity to it, and I thought that was pretty disgusting!
I've always felt that animals are the purest spirits in the world. They don't fake or hide their feelings, and they are the most loyal creatures on Earth. And somehow we humans think we're smarter-what a joke.
When I was in seventh grade my mom caught me smoking cigarettes and punished me by making me smoke the entire carton. All it did was piss me off because I was out of cigarettes.
I don't try to be candy coated. I don't try to walk on eggshells. I am what I am. Love me or hate me.
In the late '90s, R&B was dominant in the radio, and the white kids were taking it mainstream.
Pink is what I do. Alecia is who I am. The world has taken Pink and turned it into this thing, a brand - a snarl.
Sometimes I wish I was poetic and subtle. I write very bold and blunt and tell it like it is.
I know my strong points: I work hard, I have talent, I'm funny, and I'm a good person.
Every album, I'm worried that I'm a dork and a fraud - 'What if I can't sing anymore?' Then I stop thinking and start playing guitar, and I realize that it's okay to suck, and move forward.
I write from my life, my experience. I'm selfish that way.
I'm kind of psychotic and I like to talk about things. I'm a Virgo, too, so I like to analyze and overprocess.
Having a child is the best thing that could happen.
I live in America. I love being an American.
