A friend DMed me this morning about Pink’s video, calling it “exploitation disguised as empowerment,” “highly uninformed,” and done for “shock value.” I agree that, standing alone, a woman cutting the word “PERFECT” into her arm with a razor blade is over-the-top and gratuitous. But in this particular video, with this particular song, it works. And I’m willing to forgive it being a little too gratuitous because I think she’s ultimately depicting a very real problem that young women experience. Keep reading »

Congrats are allegedly in order for pop singer Pink. According to Us Weekly (which, in my opinion, is right about 95.6 percent of the time), she and husband Carey Hart are expecting a baby! Pink — who was born Alecia Moore — and Hart married in 2006 and then took a wee break in 2008, inspiring Pink to write the breakup song “So What.” However, they reunited and according to the source who spilled the juicy deets to Us, “She’s really happy, and she’s excited she got pregnant so fast! She’ll be a brilliant mother.” Though Pink and Hart haven’t confirmed she’s with child, the mag says she’s planning on taking a break from touring, which is probs a good idea, considering her live show involves her flying high above the audience supported only by silk scarves. Anyhoo, mazel tov! [Us Weekly] Keep reading »
