Despite her vaguely rebellious image P!nk is really a true purveyor of middle-of-the-road pop tunes. But contrary to my rather downbeat expectations, the momentum gathered throughout her 90-minute set.
It may seem like a curious observation, given that she has already established herself as a bona fide Pop Star, but on tonight’s evidence P!nk remains very much a work in progress.
She's hitched her long time boyfriend Corey Hart and released the well-received album I'm Not Dead. Now, the pop rebel rouser's getting ready to make a stop in Ireland.
The twin worlds of Pink the pop star and the punk rock princess collided here tonight and made awkward bedfellows. The outcome of which one will win out is still in the balance.
With the release of M!Zundastood, Pink has already played her trump card at an early stage in her career, abandoning the ubiquitous notion of poppy R’n’B for a new life as a tortured rock star.
With so many wannabe divas moving up the ranks, has Pink got what it takes to shake off the Britney-with-balls tag and prove her reputation as the riot girl of corporate pop?
Well, yes.
