Hot Music Beat

Pink was forced to cancel her Monday night show in Brisbane, Australia as she was suffering from laryngitis. The show has since been rescheduled for July 27th and the original date’s tickets will be honored at the concert without a need to exchange them. The pop rock singer took to her Twitter account to talk a little about it saying “Had to cancel my first show in 2 years. No one feels worse than I do. Very sorry.” That’s quite ok dear. Every music fan should know how a tour schedule can take its toll on someone’s body. I just hope she gets better soon.

In the July issue of FHM Australia, Pink takes a couple of digs at rapper Kanye West. The pop rocker said “Kanye West is the person pissing me off right now. I was at Stella McCartney’s Paris fashion show with the vice president of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, Paul McCartney and Kanye West. The entire time Kanye is going, ‘They need more fur in this show’. He just wouldn’t shut up about how he loved fur. I mean, he’s saying this to me, the PETA guy and Paul McCartney! I was just so grossed out by him. I’m like, ‘You’re an idiot!’ There are so many people who I think are a waste of skin and he’s up there. I should wear him. Go on, donate yourself Kanye. People can wear your fur.”

This week, singer/songwriter P!nk ascends to the number one position on the U.S. singles chart with her smash hit, “So What.” The irresistible rocking single tops Billboard’s “Hot 100 Singles,” “Hot Digital Songs” and “Hot Digital Tracks” charts, and is the number one radio airplay gainer for four weeks in a row, making it one of the top 10 most played songs at CHR radio stations. The David Meyers directed video is currently in rotation on VH-1, Fuse, Music Choice, and is one of the top ten videos on MTV.

“So What” was co-written by P!nk and produced by collaborator Max Martin, who worked with her on “Who Knew” and ”U + Ur Hand.” The New York Times describes the first single from her forthcoming album, Funhouse, as “guitar-charged and aggressively bouncy.” Funhouse is her fifth studio effort and is slated for release on October 28th.
