Pink's site's BIO.

There's more than one color to Pink.

"I hope this album shocks people who think they know who I am or what I'm about," says the feisty 22-year-old. Her debut album last year was an out-of-the-blue double platinum 'smash' within the US and gained platinum and Gold discs around the world. Her debut album spun off three Top 40 hits, two of them Top 10, one gold. Along the way, she also scored a #1 smash hit in a sensational teaming with three of the other hottest now female stars of the new millennium. Yet they only gave an inkling of the power of Pink.

On M!ssundaztood (Arista Records), released November 20, 2001, Pink unveils a stunning new voice on the music scene, a phenomenal singer-songwriter voice, a voice that rocks, a voice of unabashed freedom--her own true voice.

"I have faith people loved the last album not because it was the sound of the day but because they felt the strength of a young woman not afraid to express herself. There are so many lost kids not into teenybopper garbage. I'm one of them, and I want to reach out my hand. I'm not in this for the 'entertainment business.' Music should be much bigger than that."

With M!ssundaztood, Pink is sure to astonish her legions of dedicated fans as well as critics who applauded her boldness but expect the same R&B pop they heard on 2000's Can't Take Me Home. "I love unpredictability. I do what I'm told I can't do; its a challenge. I'm a big dreamer."

Pink's musical ambition for M!ssundaztood--"real music you can live or die to, songs that make you want to stand up and change your life"--was greeted at first blush with skepticism, even by her new collaborator, Linda Perry, formerly of the groundbreaking 4 Non Blondes. "I'm sure she saw this pink-haired diva thing and didn't know if there was any depth there at all."

As a teenager, Pink sang 4 Non Blondes songs at open mike nights: "I wore the hats and combat boots. I could even sound like her. I thought I was her!" Early this year, after discovering her hero's number in a makeup artists phone book. Pink left a 15 minute message including a story about being arrested for belting out Perry's songs at 3 a.m. "I told her if she didn't return my call, I'd be her stalker. She called and said, 'You're crazy, you'd better come over."

They sat on the floor of Perry's Los Angeles home and wrote "Eventually" in minutes. Over the next month, they talked, wrote songs and got tattoos. "Amazing, liberating, inspiring, what making music should be like."

Pink also enlisted other co-writer/producers--fellow Philadelphian Scoff Storch (The Roots, Dr. Dre), Dallas Austin (TLC, Madonna) and Damon Elliott (Bone Thugs N Harmony). The first single, "Get The Party Started," is merely the bridge to Pink's New World. The old school analog M!ssundaztood oozes with raw emotion, from the sugarless romance of "Eventually" and "Just Like A Pill" to the heart-wrenching "Dear Diary" and "Family Portrait," from the introspective "My Vietnam" and "M!ssundaztood" to the rock anthem "Don't Let Me Get Me."

"I know why there was the last album--to get to this album. The first one was me but I didn't think it showed all of me, it didn't show what I could do. I longed to truly feel a connection with my music and the au audience. I have a vision and know what I want. Now I have a band. I can't wait to play my new music live."

A grand, hopeful vision of music that embraces instead of segregates is not new to Pink. She has sung gospel in an all-black church and been the only girl in a punk band. She sang background for the rap group Scratch N' Smoove (whose Scratch became a member of The Roots and also is heard on M!ssundazstood) and was a skateboarding club kid with a Friday night spot at Philly's Club Fever. There she was spotted by a talent scout and recruited for first one R&B group and then another. She was just 16 when the latter was signed to the LaFace label of L.A. Reid and Babyface. They later inked her as a solo artist and produced Can't Take Me Home.

"I was probably the oldest teenager who ever lived. I never had friends my own age. My best friend was an 85-year-old woman who lived across the street until my parents split up when I was seven. My dad is a Vietnam vet and he raised me in reality. That's why I dropped out of high school. How could I stay someplace where the most important thing was where you got your shoes?"

She worked at Pizza Hut, McDonald's, Wendy's, and a gas station. She was never on time, hated taking orders. She listened to Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Billy Joel, Guns N' Roses, Green Day and 2Pac. She no longer wrote in her diary--after a girl in high school stole it and pasted the pages up on lockers--but she wrote poetry trying to understand what was going on inside of her: "I was screwed up, lost and unhappy."

Along the way, Alicia Moore earned her nickname, first for her complexion as a child, then for the color of her face when embarrassed and finally after the outgoing Mr. Pink in Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs. Her hair had been tie-dyed, tinted blue, cornrowed, etc. She thought it would be funny if Pink also had pink hair.

Then came Can't Take Me Home. Its debut single, "There You Go," went gold and Top 10. "Most Girls" followed it into the Top 10, as did "You Make Me Sick." Pink also earned an MTV Video Music Award nomination for Best New Artist. Joining Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim, Mya and Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott for their cover of the LaBelle '70s smash "Lady Marmalade" for the Moulin-Rouge soundtrack, she enjoyed her first #1 hit. MTV named that track's clip Video Of The Year and Best Video From A Film.

"Before, I wanted to throw my success in the face of every teacher who told me I wouldn't be shit. Now it's 'I'm so happy I can do what I love and not answer to some asshole boss.' If not for music, I'd be in trouble all the time. Music saved my life. It still does. This album saves me."

She hopes her voice also gives voice to a new generation. "We never had to fight for anything. It shows in the music; its just surface music. I want to open up minds, break stereotypes--in music, sex, everything. The world is ready to grow up."

Even, she says, if growing up is painful. In "Family Portrait," she paints a not-very-pretty picture: A child raised by two parents who fought all the time I and eventually divorced. When she played the song back in the studio, she had to leave the room. "I realized how my entire life was affected, and to listen to that song was like being naked in front of an auditorium of people. I let my mom listen and she cried for days; my dad too. It makes me sad but it also helped release some of their feelings. Pain is not always a bad thing, it can be a learning thing."

Growing up was her generation's Vietnam. Given the events of September 11, however, "My Vietnam" has taken on added meaning. As a kid, she and her father would help feed the homeless, including many Vietnam vets. She heard their stories, visited The Wall in D.C., saw their brotherhood. She respected what they fought for and still does.

Pink is fighting too, by being bluntly honest and celebrating life and freedom, without anger or angst. Instead of becoming a victim, she has learned from her experiences and she shares them in her music. "What I needed growing up was to hear Janis tell me everything was alright and for Nirvana to tell me I could express myself. I'm just a goofy-ass girl but that's what I want to do for the kids who listen to me."

Pink is no longer about the hair, which isn't as pink as before. Pink is about the songs and their shocking emotional openness.

"Know what was the best thing that happened to me the entire year? A 45-year-old woman and her daughter came up and it was the mother who wanted an autograph. She told me how I had helped her through her divorce, and how she and her daughter both loved my music and how sharing that had saved their relationship. That's more than I can do for myself."

There's no misunderstanding. As Pink says, "We are all pink on the inside."

Pink, at only 18, is a young woman with the experience of many lifetimes. "I'm a very extreme person. I went through a lot of phases growing up, and for everyone, I was extreme," confides Pink, the latest R&B/pop artist to emerge from the hugely successful, LaFace Records camp. "From skateboarder to hip-hopper to rave child to lead singer of a rock band- I did it all, and all at the same time." Looking at Pink, it's easy to believe that she skillfully mastered each of her extremes, with a shock of pink hair, sharply focused blue eyes hinting of a rebellious streak and an abundance of self-confidence. But, she is also a bewildered girl who is just now finding her place on this planet, a strong person with a million lessons to teach and even more to learn. She's seen a lot, and now stands on the fault line between the angst of adolescence and the knowledge of adulthood. And thus, Pink is filled with Self-discovery. Having written over half of the dozen songs on her self-titled album, Pink offers an insight into her tumultuous world where life is not always flowers and chocolate. "I decided at 15 that I didn't want to be one of those artists that gets up and sings love songs they don't mean," Pink explains of the songs that appear on her debut album. " I decided that I was going to be me to the fullest extent, that songs were going to reflect relationships I've had, things I've been through, and even the stuff I'm embarrassed about." "My dad always played guitar and taught me songs by Dylan and McLean," Pink recalls. But his love of music left an indelible mark on Pink. " Ever since I can remember, I think before I could talk, I sang, " she continues. "I just ran around the house making up my own fantasy world. By the time she was barely a teen, Pink had navigated the precarious waters of the Philly club scene. Any time not spent testing authority at high school was spent tearing up the dance floor, and eventually, the stage. " I met this guy named Scratch, who was the best dancer in Philly," she says of her 13th year. "I started dancing with him, and eventually I was singing Mary J. Blige hooks in the background for his rap group, Scratch n' Smoove. I wrote some of my own stuff about the way it was growing up in Philly. We would just get up on the stage at clubs, and hang out in the studios hoping to get some songs down on tape. At the time, making music was medicine." Calling upon Mary, Janis Joplin, the Supremes, Shirley Murdock, Donny Hathaway and Madonna for inspiration, Pink laid down her first self-written song at fourteen. But she really got her groove on, not in the studio, but in the clubs. "I went regularly on Friday nights to Club Fever, where the DJ gave me a guest spotlight," Pink laughs. "My little five minutes on Friday nights was all I wanted out of life. I loved the thrill of being on stage. It was the only place that I felt like, okay, I'm cool now. Offstage was when I looked for approval." Being heckled only boosted Pink's ambitions. One late Friday night, a rep from MCA came around the club, looking for a singer to fill her new R&B group. She liked Pink's sound, and asked her to audition for a group called Basic Instinct. She got the gig practically on the spot, but the group fizzled quickly. "I didn't fit in," quips Pink. "But I didn't care. You have to laugh at stuff like that. And anyway, I don't see myself as belonging to any group." Nonetheless, another group instantly snapped up Pink as one of three female leads. This one, named Choice, made a ten-cent demo and was immediately signed to LaFace. The group didn't last - one wanted to sing Broadway tunes, the other wanted to make alternative records and Pink wanted to do it all - but Pink's place in the LaFace stable was solidified. In fact, it was during studio time with Choice in Atlanta that Pink rediscovered her writing abilities and hooked up with Darryl TK. "He asked me to write the bridge for 'Just to Be Loving You.' I thought that was so cool, because no one had even asked me if I wrote. So I just closed my eyes and out it came. I wrote that, and it was the beginning of my writing career." It was also the emergence of Pink's powerful soprano, which is capable of taking sharp dives and hairpin turns through multiple octaves. "I had gotten really good at emulating other people's sounds, from singing at the clubs," she says. "But the day we recorded 'Just to Be Loving You' for Choice in the studio , that song was so beautiful, I just sang. I didn't care what I sounded like. It just came out and shocked me." Pink began writing songs to display her vocal ability and love for the pop side of R&B at a feverish place. When she approached L.A. Reid with her songs, he was floored. "I kept playing him my songs and going, 'What about this one? What about these?'", she remembers. "And he was like, yeah, I like that one, yeah, that's a single. He looked at me as a self-contained unit, which he thought was interesting. It's always been really cool with him." Reid signed Pink up as a solo artist and hooked her up with various writing partners-from She'speare to Babyface and 112. "There You Go," the debut single which displays the versatility of her voice and the wickedness of her plume, will undoubtedly place Pink on the map. If this is just the surface, we can't wait to see what mysteries lurk below. [taken from Laface.com]

Pink
With a raging rebellious streak and a shocking head of hair to match a day-glow name, Pink busted out of the Philly club scene with her 2000 debut Can't Take Me Home, an in-your-face mix of R&B, hip-hop and pop that spawned three hit singles. Then came the coolest collaboration of 2001. Singing alongside Christina Aguilera, Lil' Kim and Mya, Pink proved to the world she could belt it out with the best of them on the Missy Elliott-produced "Lady Marmalade." Armed with a love for unpredictability and a real band to back her up, the free-spirited singer decided to unleash her true self on 2001's M!ssundaztood and let the music speak for itself. So sit back, listen and behold the powerful shades of Pink.

Pink came by AOL Live to talk about the success of her hit single and video There You Go. Read below to see what she had to say!

Scroll down to read the full transcript...
*****************************************************

HostTPZena:  Good evening! TEEN PEOPLE Online is so lucky to have Pink with us tonight! Her single, "There You Go," is so hot ... it's all over MTV and the charts. She just released her first album, "Can't Take Me Home," and she's taking your questions live tonight. Hello, Pink!

Pink:  Hello! Thank you, everyone, for coming.

HostTPZena:  I want to ask the first question... TEEN PEOPLE asked you back in January to play our What's Next party in LA, where you shared the stage with
Britney Spears and LFO... so we obviously think you're a major talent. What's it like to finally be getting so much recognition?

Pink:  It is a dream come true, basically. It's hard to explain. I just love being onstage and having an audience. That's all I ever wanted. And it was fun -- I got to sing my favorite song, which is "His Eye Is on the Sparrow."

HostTPZena:  And let me tell everyone... she sang it a cappella and was incredible. Blew everyone away. Let's get to the audience's questions.

Question:  Hi, Pink, you're finally here! My first question is, how did you get started in the music industry?

Pink:  I've always been singing and tried to get in every possible microphone I could ever get. I also sang in a hip-hop club in Philly. I sent LaFace a demo tape through the mail. They picked it out of the mail, flew us down there and signed us that day. I actually signed with a group called Choice.

Question:  Hi, my name is Caiti.... I just wanted to say I'm a huge fan, and my question is, are you dating anyone famous?

Pink:  No, I'm not dating anyone famous. I don't like famous people! I'm scared of them!

Question:  What is your favorite song on your CD, and why?

Pink:  "Split Personality," because it is the most me -- it's the Pinkest you can get.

Question:  For Pink:  What inspired you to write "There You Go"? I think it is a great song and I listen to it constantly on the radio.

Pink:  Games and power struggles in relationships, being fed up with the game-playing between men and women. I was pretty angry. Ha ha....

Question:  Pink, what songs are you going to sing at the B96 Summer Bash?

Pink:  Definitely "Split Personality" and "Most Girls," or "You Make Me Sick," and I want to do "There You Go"... as you can tell, I'm not really sure.

Question:  Do you have a web site?

Pink:  Yeah... it's www.pinkspage.com... it's awesome! I used to read the guestbook every day, before I had to take it down.

Question:  What was it like shooting the video?

Pink:  It was so much fun! It was probably the best time -- besides Cancun Spring Break. I crashed two motorcycles before I got to the third one that we used in the shot. That's why I'm wearing pants in the whole video.

Question:  What's it like to be a rock star?

Pink:  Yes, rock star! I love you, whoever said that! It's great, because I love being recognized, it's just weird because I'm not used to all the attention.

Question:  I think you are great, Pink. I was just wondering how you got the name Pink and why?

Pink:  My friends named me Pink. It's been following me my whole life. The movie "Reservoir Dogs" came out, and Mr. Pink is a character in that. My friends named me that because I get embarrassed easily and I turn bright pink.

Question:  What is your favorite group or singer?

Pink:  I don't have a favorite, but some of my favorites are Billy Joel, Linda Perry from 4 Non Blondes, Donny Hathaway, Madonna and Shirley Murdock.

Question:  Is it true that you have a crush on "TRL" host Carson Daly?

Pink:  What??

Question:  Hey, I love you. Your hair is awesome. What did you dye it with?

Pink:  Awww ... it's called Fudge. I have to do it once a week, and it's a pain in the butt! I've had it like this for two years. I do it myself.

Question:  Do you plan on pursuing a career in other fields of entertainment, i.e., directing or acting?

Pink:  Yes, I like a little bit of everything. I might try to do a couple things. Right now I'm just singing.

Question:  What will be your next song?

Pink:  I'm not sure yet. I'm pushing for "Split Personality," but I need your help! I need you to call the radio stations and request it!

HostTPZena:  But if you only have one phone line! Wait till the chat is done! =) OK... next question.

Question:  How can fans contact you? And what's your ideal meal in a day? Your #1 fan, Chacha.

Pink:  People can write me through my fan club on pinkspage.com. I read all my e-mails every day, and even though I can't get back to everyone, I get back to as many as I can. And my ideal meal would be anything cooked by someone else. And it has to have sweet potatoes.

Question:  What was MTV Spring Break like?

Pink:  Cancun was the best time I ever had! I got to meet Jerry Springer. I walked up to him -- he was in the pool, surrounded by women, of course -- and was like, "Jerry, we gotta talk!" He's like, "What's wrong?" I said, "Someone dyed my hair and then slept with my brother!" He was cracking up.

Question:  You're a beautiful lady. How do you stay in such perfect shape?

Pink:  A lot of french fries and no workout. Psych! I was a gymnast for 8 years. After that I got lazy, so it's starting to catch up with me.

Question:  Where did you live in Philly? I lived in a small town right outside of Philly, and I'm wondering if I maybe lived near where you were.

Pink:  In every part at some time or another.

Question:  Who's your idol?

Pink:  My dad. He's my idol because he's real and he tells it like it is and he's consistent. He doesn't change.

HostTPZena:  We'll take one last question for Pink.

Question:  Pink, do you ever get stage fright?

Pink:  No. I get nervous afterwards. I'm backwards.
