Pink Gave An Unexpected Grammys Performance That Has People Confused
Pink’s performance at this years Grammys was different from what everyone is used to seeing from the musician, and it has people divided over how to feel.
Pink has a rep for big scale award show performances that have often involved her flying through the air like the time Pink was wet and flying at the 2010 Grammys or when Pink scaled a building at the 2017 AMAs).
Flying is her thing.
We’ve come to expect Pink doing some hectic acrobatic shit while performing, but this performance was totally different.
Pink (who was nominated for best pop solo performance for her song ‘What About Us‘) took the stage in just jeans and a white t-shirt to deliver an incredible vocal performance of ‘Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken’ from her 2017 album, Beautiful Trauma.
No theatrics, just Pink, the mic and a sign language interpreter to translate the lyrics to Pink’s powerful ballad on the Grammys’ stage. Hot damn.
People were shook

Some people were not super stoked
I guess the low-key vibes were a disappointment for some who expected the classic gravity-defying hanging-from-the-roof Pink showcase.
Me: “Pink better not hang from the ceiling again.”
Also Me: “Why didn’t Pink hang from the ceiling?!”#Grammys pic.twitter.com/DxNO2ixuL3

Some people are just lol-ing
Pink just came from the supermarket, and said fuck it let me pull up at the Grammy's with this outfit. #GRAMMYs

Pink was doing laundry when she realized she had to go to grammy's awards #GrammysEnTNT

But a whole lot of people were very much into it
That was a damn powerful stripped-back performance tbh.
When you think @Pink was going to be flying above all the stage… But instead gives you a damn emotional vocal performance #GRAMMYS
