Pink's 'Perfect' Promise to Her Baby-to-Be

By Christine Fenno Posted Jan 22nd 2011 11:58AM

She'll soon be welcoming a baby daughter into the world, but first, Pink has delivered a new video to her fans, featuring a young woman (Tina Majorino) who's a cutter.

Now, the 31-year-old singer has taken to her blog to explain what 'F--kin' Perfect' means to her as a mother-to-be.

"I support the kids out there that feel so desperate/numb/powerless, that feel unseen and unheard, and can't see another way," Pink writes. "I want them to know I'm aware. I have been there. I see them."

She adds, "I have a life inside of me, and I want her or him to know that I will accept him or her with open and loving and welcoming arms....And though I will prepare this little munchkin for a sometimes cruel world, I will also equip this kid to see all the beauty in it as well. There are good people in this world that are open-minded, and loving. There are those that accept us with all of our flaws. I do that with my fans/friends, and I will do that with my child, whoever they decide to be."

Acknowledging that the 'F--kin' Perfect' video (watch it below) is likely to "ruffle some feathers," the Grammy winner writes with admiration about art that "promotes awareness and change" and says that "making this video was a very emotional experience."

She also warns readers to take young women in crisis seriously: "Cutting, and suicide, two very different symptoms of the same problem, are gaining on us....I personally don't know a single person who doesn't know at least two of these victims personally. A lot of us have seen certain starlets showing off their latest scars on a red carpet somewhere, usually right before they head back to their favorite rehab. It's a problem, and it's something we should talk about."

I don't much like Pink's music or politics but I must respect her for her honesty and being true to herself and her perception of her art and it's purpose. Blessing to the new child and best of luck to her.

That is amazing, it's so nice to see a star talking about REAL issues. We're all so 'Kardashiansized' who sees what is really going on...kudos to Pink for this awesome song calling out to all the girls who don't fit in!

I think Pink is going to be an awesome mother!

By YellowRose3218

I am no fan of Pink, but I read her story here, and it sounds like she will be a great mother. She knows exactly how some kids feel at times, some parents dont have a clue.
I wish Pink, and her new baby, all the very best.

By Leslie Schwamberger

So sad of a world we live in where there are bullies and those who make kids think they are less than nothing. What does this say about our society as a whole?

By New York

Moms Please watch this video with your children. Let them know that they are perfect no matter what. They need to hear it. It is so tough out there. Thank you Pink for such a profound message. The video was heart wrenching & the song beautiful. I wish you a wonderful life with your new daughter. She is so lucky to have you as her mom. God Bless.

AWESOME video!! This is what makes me LOVE P!nk. With all the suicides going on now a days and/or kids hurting themselves it's great that P!nk is sending a message to all kids out there!

By Danielle

How do you know she's having a daughter?? the link you have posted under the word daughter is only an article where she talks about her mom wanting her to have a daughter. and she specifically states that she wants "her or him" so obviously she has not yet released the sex of her baby.

By sandi

she did on the Ellen show she said it was a girl

Actually Sandi, she didnt confirm it. She said that the doctors think that but that she's not sure. Quote from an article about the Ellen show:

Pink said she doesn't know the sex of the child, but her doctor may have inadvertently tipped her off.

"I'm terrified because she thinks it's a girl," Pink half-jokingly revealed. "My mom has always wished me a daughter just like me. I'm terrified one of us will go to jail!"

And it's a little too early for them to know anyway.
