Pink
A multiplatinum-selling artist with a barrage of hits to her credit, Pink was living proof that breaking - rather than following - all the rules was the key to her success as an artist. The neon-haired singer consistently released commercial and critical hit albums, including Missundaztood (2001) and I'm Not Dead (2006), that showcased her powerful vocal range and introspective songwriting. Pink's poignant, revelatory lyrics covered a variety of topics - from her troubled childhood, to her turbulent marriage with motocross athlete Carey Hart, to anti-war sentiments - that earned her a reputation as the "anti-Britney Spears" type of pop star. In 2006, Pink released the hit single "Don't Let Me Get Me," which summed up her fearless and feisty personality, and also illustrated perfectly why she was a compelling and exciting entertainer for listeners of all ages. Unlike many of her pop contemporaries, Pink matured into a compelling pop-R&B singer, scoring hit singles and albums such as 2012's The Truth About Love and 2017's Beautiful Trauma.
