Welcome to Women Who Rock Wednesday! Last week we had the fabulous Lauren Baratz-Logsted and she offered up a copy of her new book
CRAZY BEAUTIFUL to one lucky winner. I'm happy to announce that the lucky winner of that contest is...Shooting Stars Magazine from MySpace. I'll send you a message unless you message me first with your address!
Well, I mentioned that I'd be changing WWRW around a little bit and talking about women who influenced me and why instead of doing interviews every other week. And after I saw Pink's performance on the VMAs this Sunday, I felt I simply had to feature her. In case you missed her high wire singing act, check it out:

Oh, I *love* Pink. I am a big fan of her latest album. I think it's so brave to write about the disentigration of her marriage in such an open way. (I guess it was only temporary, though, because I've seen pics lately of her with her husband.) She reminds me to be as honest in my writing as I can.
I flipping LOVE Pink. I have bought all of her CD's since her first one has came out. I am at the store as soon as it is released. I have watched all of her interviews and am signed up for her website. I have yet to go to one of her concerts but I really want to. That is one of my dreams to watch her perform. Her performance on the VMA's was mind blowing!!!
I am glad you wrote about her. She is amazing!!
Thank you so much, I just emailed you back! As for Pink. I love her. I have for awhile but I don't have her albums...I need to just go and get them one by one sometime soon though. She has amazing lyrics, and Family Portrait was definitely a favorite of mine and I can relate in some ways. I also love that line "L.A. told me I'd be a pop star. All you have to do is change everything you are." or whatever...I LOVED that. It was so great how honest she was. And her VMA performance was awesomeee. I was in awe. As for liking people that aren't "cool", I'd say most of my music taste is like that. I just really like random things and I have a mix of people I love from various genres.

I love Pink. I think that she has some amazing songs that just seem to reach out and call out to me. One of my favorites is Who Knew...that song just makes me tear up a bit and I really am not sure why.
Thanks for choosing her and I think that she definitely is a woman who rocks! Her tattoos are very cool, I have to agree.
Anyone who can do acrobats and sing well at the same time deserves some sort of admiration.
I don't listen to Pink, but I understand liking people you normally wouldn't. My biggest taste outlier is Eminem. I listened to his music because I refuse to comment on something if I haven't heard/seen/etc. it, and discovered I actually liked most of his stuff. Still confuses me.
I love Pink. Her songs are meaningful and just great. She has a voice in her songs. I have a couple singers and bands who are not what I'm mainly listening to. When I grew up, I always heard Hilary Duff. So she was one of those ones who stuck to me.
