Pink left speechless mid-concert over fan’s touching gesture
As any fan of Pink will know, the chart-topping singer is famed across the globe for pulling out all the stops to ensure her fans get their money's worth when they rock up to one of her concerts.
Whether it's performing aerial circus tricks tens of metres above ground, bringing on legendary special guest performers or munching her way through the local delicacies of each city she visits while mid-song, the 44-year-old promises a show to remember time and time again.
This week, however, it wasn't fans that were left picking their jaws up off the floor in the midst of one of her shows - it was the musician herself.

In an image taken during her Tuesday night (12 March) concert in Melbourne, Australia, which has since gone viral on social media, Pink - real name Alecia Beth Moore - was seen with her mouth open in shock, staring into the crowd.
'But what could have happened during the sell-out gig to warrant such a reaction?', I bet you're wondering.
Well, fans of the mother-of-two will already be aware that, back in 2007, the hit-maker was left mending a broken heart after her beloved dog Elvis tragically passed away after falling into her swimming pool at her LA home.
She'd named the pooch after the illustrious rock n' roll legend because he was given to her as a gift by Elvis' real-life daughter Lisa Marie Presley, who sadly died herself last year.
During her rendition of 2013 banger 'Try', Pink became distracted by a colossal image that one fan, named Jo, was holding up above her head in the crowd.
Taking a second to focus on the canvas, the US singer was instantly overcome with emotion when she noticed that it bore a painting of her late bulldog with a halo and angel wings.
She then dropped to the floor in a state of shock, before moving herself into a praying gesture, with the heart-warming moment being captured by fellow concert attendees.
The Australian fan who'd crafted the sweet tribute later shared her painting on social media, so that others who'd attended the concert but were unsure what made the singer react in this way, could see it.
"I am spinning TF out still... Pink's reaction when I held up a portrait I done of her late dog Elvis," painter Jo captioned the image.
