![]() ![]() ![]() In stark contrast to her other celebrated Grammys performances (think "Glitter in the Air" in 2010), P!nk stayed firmly on the ground and at her microphone for the entire performance, using only her voice and her message to wow the audience into a standing ovation. "The stones you throw can make me bleed, but I won't stop until we're free. There's not enough tape to shut this mouth," the chorus begins. Her performance of "Wild Hearts" spoke directly to the resilience of the Time's Up movement and the broader cultural reckoning with gender issues, sexual misconduct and inclusivity. All it took for the 38-year-old songstress to bring down the house was a white T-shirt and jeans, a sign language interpreter, her voice and a powerfully timely song. ![]() Pink’s performance was fitting for the moment.NEW YORK - There were no acrobatics, backup dancers or special effects when P!nk took the stage to perform "Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken" at the Grammy Awards. Much like the #TimesUp pins at the Golden Globes, nominees, guests, performers and presenters wore white roses to the Grammys to show their support for the movement. ![]() All of the focus was on her, her voice and message as she continued: “This is my rally cry/ I know it’s hard, we have to try/ This is a battle I must win/ To want my share is not a sin.” Pink sang the timely lyrics: “There’s not enough rope to tie me down/ There’s not enough tape to shut this mouth.” She performed alongside a sign language interpreter on a bare stage set up. Nominated for the song, “What About Us” in the best pop solo performance category, she chose to perform the cut “Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken” from her seventh studio album, “Beautiful Trauma.” However, Sunday night at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony at Madison Square Garden in New York City, she kept it super simple.Īlthough she had worn a fuzzy red get-up to walk the red carpet, she sported a plain pair of jeans and a white, off-the-shoulder T-shirt on stage. In the past she’s done aerial acrobatics and flown high about audiences at awards show. Everyone expects a ginormous spectacle from pop songstress Pink. ![]()
