Pink says a 13-year-old fan's rape ordeal stopped her from quitting music.
Pink says a 13-year-old fan's rape ordeal stopped her from quitting music.
The singer received a harrowing letter from the teenager revealing how her
grandfather had sexually abused her following the death of her mother.
The fan, who also described how her grandfather had been raping her mother
before her passing, urged the star to "never stop" because her music gave
her a reason to live.
Pink, real name Alecia Moore, said: "I remember being in Paris and talking
about my childhood, my parents divorcing and I started crying during an
interview. I thought I was over music and I couldn't take any more. But
then, not long after, I got a letter from this girl saying her grandfather
was raping her.
"I get chills even talking about it. I have 50 of the most insanely awful
letters that remind me that this job isn't about me."
Pink insists she doesn't care if people criticize her songs because they
have a positive effect on many listeners.
She added to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "It's crazy. Some people may say
the new songs are heartache b***-s**t but somebody out there is going to get
through their pain a little easier, and that makes me feel better."
