VH1 ranked her number 10 on their list of the 100 Greatest Women in Music, while Billboard awarded her the Woman of the Year award in 2013. In 2014, Pink recorded a collaborative album, Rose Ave., with Canadian musician Dallas Green under a folk music duo named You+Me. She has described herself as an \”Irish-German-Lithuanian-Jew\”, and self-identifies as Jewish. She took the character of Mr. Pink in Quentin Tarantino’s film Reservoir Dogs. She is married to pop star Justin Timberlake and has a son, Justin Bieber, and a daughter, Ava Phillippe, with husband Justin Bieber. Pink is the second most-played female solo artist in the United Kingdom during the 2000s decade, behind only Madonna. Her music has been featured in numerous films and TV shows, including The Hunger Games, The X-Files, The Matrix, and The Matrix: Generation X, among others.
Pink’s music has also been featured on the soundtrack to the film The Godfather: Part II, The Master of Sex, The Grand Budapest Hotel, and the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part III. She also appeared in the film adaptation of The Hobbit, The Descendants, as a supporting character in the movie The Great Gatsby. Pink was born on September 8, 1979, in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, to emergency room nurse Judith \”Judy\” Moore and insurance salesman James \”Jim\” Moore. Her parents began having marital problems and divorced before she was 10 years old. She developed her voice early in life and was trained as a competitive gymnast between the ages 4 and 12. In high school, Pink joined her first band, Middleground, but it disbanded upon losing a Battle of the Bands competition. At 14, she auditioned to become a part of the all-female group Basic Instinct, but earned a spot in the lineup without releasing any material. At 16, she and two other teenage girls, Sharon Flanagan and Chrissy Conway, formed the R&B group Pink. Since the three girls were under the age of 18, their parents had cosigned them to perform for L. A. Reid, who overheard it and arranged for the group to perform there so he could see them. Since then, Pink and the other girls were signed to a record deal under the name Pink.
