Pink, Not Stupid

MTV.com: Pink: Not Dead, Not Stupid: "Consumerism diverts us from thinking about women's rights, it stops us from thinking about Iraq, it stops us from thinking about what's going on in Africa - it stops us from thinking in general."

Wherever the truth comes from is where you point your bow.

...more from Pink:

"I love the discussion that's going on right now. It's always nice to be missed, but I don't feel like I ever really went away. I don't know where I'd be coming back from. There's always a backlash when you challenge people's convictions and their heroes. But I don't do all this so I can be in Us Weekly every week. I don't do this so that people think I'm cool. I don't do it for — it sounds ridiculous — the fame or the money. I have incredible dogs, I have incredible friends, I have a gorgeous husband who loves me. I'm good. I love to sing and put my music out there, and I hope I can always do that. But I'm not going to forsake who I am or my integrity to have these things that I can't take with me anyway. I never said I was perfect, and I never said anybody else doesn't have permission to make fun of me for what I do. I'm a walking contradiction. I'm a hypocrite sometimes. I'm a work in progress. But I'm working to be better. I'm seeking out smart people and responsible women, and I'm standing up for animals. I'm not making fun of a certain person, I'm making fun of an idea, and I think they're missing the point. Sexy doesn't have to come with the price tag of being dumb. "

This is one terrific woman.
