Like her peers, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, and even Britney Spears, Pink has established herself as one of the titans of pop music. Serving as an inspiration for a plethora of pop singers today, Pink is nothing but deserving of earning the iHeartRadio Icon Award.
From her very "vulnerable" speech, it wouldn't be a Pink night if she wouldn't perform at least once in a show. Singing one of the most popular songs in her career, Pink's duet of "Just Give Me A Reason" with Kelly Clarkson is pop perfection!
Pink, Kelly Clarkson 'Just Give Me A Reason' Duet
Originally sung by Pink and Nate Reuss, "Just Give Me A Reason" has become one of the songs in pop culture that, when sung by anyone, especially either of the two original artists, is sure to be a powerhouse duet.
Before accepting her Icon Award, Pink took to the stage and joined Kelly Clarkson, who is also her dear friend. Both renowned vocalists, Pink and Clarkson, unleashed perhaps their greatest duet yet, and probably a performance that would go down as one of the greatest television has ever seen.
Pink accompanied Clarkson and a group of orchestral string in the background as they sang duet together.
Although the performance was cut short, Pink surely made up for it as she sang an EDM mashup of her songs "What About Us".
Before her duet with Clarkson, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductees Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo also sang Pink's song, "Just Like A Pill."
Pink iHeartRadio Music Awards Icon Award Speech
Upon accepting the Icon Award, Pink described singing with Clarkson and her song being sung by Pat Benatar as a "Christmas Miracle," who she also called to be two of the greatest voices alive.
"I usually do try to joke or be self-deprecating in these moments, but I want to be a better friend to myself tonight. I would like to try and say something honest. Every room I walk into, my heart walks in first. Every lyric that I write is my heart crying, raging, hoping, screaming, pleading," Pink said in her speech.
Pink is embarking on two different tours this year - the "Summer Carnival" tour and her "Trustfall" tour.
