P!NK paused ‘Our Song’ performance after a woman goes into labour 😬😅: Being a great artist without being a good human being is worthless
For those wondering, the mom to be got to the hospital. The baby was actually breech so it was a very good thing she made it to the hospital ! Baby was born via c-section and both were well.
Pink kicked off her tour with a mom-to-be going into labor mid-show.
During the first night of the singer’s Australian Summer Carnival stadium tour in Sydney on Friday, the musician stopped the show to acknowledge a fan who had gone into labor in the audience.
Explaining that she didn’t understand her crew trying to mime her the news from off-stage, she then asked, “Is it Alicia or Alex being born?”
Joking, she continued, “I feel like we shouldn’t be looking. Everyone give her her privacy!”
She clarified the baby had not yet been born before laughing at how her song had induced the woman’s labor.
“Wow, ‘Our Song,’ that was the one that did it. Wouldn’t have called that one! I thought it would’ve been ‘Get The Party Started’ or ‘Never Not Gonna Dance Again,'” she said.
Pink congratulated the mom, saying, “That’s exciting. I don’t even know what to say. But we have to sing now. Good luck! It’s gonna be great! You’re gonna do great.”
Soon after, she brought daughter Willow, 12, on stage to perform their single, “Cover Me in Sunshine.”

It’s not the first time a mom-to-be has found herself in labor at the “So What?” singer’s concert.
At an August tour date in Boston, Angela Mercer found herself in labor and ended up walking about a mile from the venue, Fenway Park, to the hospital to avoid getting stuck in concert traffic.
“She and her family decided the fastest way to get to Brigham and Women’s was to walk – and so, decked out in their concert outfits, they made the trek to our hospital where Angela later delivered her son in the Brigham’s NICU,” the hospital wrote.
The TRUSTFALL musician, 44, enjoyed some family time amid her ongoing tour, sharing photos on Instagram earlier this month from time at Bondi Beach in Australia with her family.
“Bondi Beach it’s been too long!!!!!!! Bills was delicious, too. ❤️Soooooooo happy to be back on this side of the world!” she wrote in the caption.
“Thank you beautiful Australia for being our home away from home. Kids are stoked 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽.”
