One day they need to have pink do the half time show. She puts on the best concert I have ever seen

She’s a hero for numerous reasons. Not because she sang with the flu. Because of the badass person she is.

Lewat Twitter, perempuan bernama asli Alecia Beth Moore tersebut menuai banyak pujian.

Tak hanya karena penampilan memukau, P!nk juga dipuji berkat perjuangannya.

Pasalnya, penyanyi sekaligus penulis lagu ini diketahui tengah terserang flu.

Influenza yang menyerang otomatis bisa berdampak pada nafas dan suara sang penyanyi.

 

Trying to practice the flu away. I’ve been waiting to sing this song since 1991 when I saw my idol, Whitney Houston, own this song. And now, my chance has finally come. And it just so happens that this chance comes when I have two small Petri dish kids who literally cough INTO MY MOUTH and rub their snot on my cheek. You can’t write this stuff I swear! And here we are. I’ve arrived at another one of my dreams which is slowly becoming a sort of nightmare. I will tell you, this is one of the biggest honors of my life, singing this song in front of my family, my military family, my dad and brother and step mama and family and the world. And the EAGLES!?!?! I promise I will do my best, as I always do. As far as the gremlins that got me into this mess, you can cough at me for the rest of your lives. If it’s a contest, babies, you win. #spreadthelove #spreadthegerms #pleasegivememyvoiceback #ificansingimgonnakillit

Bahkan P!nk sempat terlihat membuang permen pelega tenggorokan sebelum mulai menyanyi.

Namun rupanya hal tersebut tak menjadi masalah bagi P!nk.

Dirinya tetap mampu tampil maksimal menyanyikan lagu yang menjadi jati diri bangsa Amerika tersebut.
