Pink took the stage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, delivering a heartfelt performance of her song "What About Us" with her daughter Willow Sage. The poignant lyrics highlighted the struggles of marginalized communities, including immigrants and same-sex couples. Pink has been an advocate for LGBTQ and reproductive rights, and her performance was a powerful show of support for the Democratic party.
The singer was joined by her daughter Willow Sage, who dueted the track with her. Together, they sang the track's poignant verse: "We are searchlights, we can see in the dark/We are rockets, pointed up at the stars/We are billions of beautiful hearts/And you sold us down the river too far." During their performance, a pink light blanketed the thousands in attendance.
Earlier in the day, Pink and Willow were captured rehearsing the Beautiful Trauma single. The 2017 "What About Us" video highlighted communities whose rights were threatened during Trump's administration, including immigrants and same-sex couples.
Pink has been an advocate for LGBTQ and reproductive rights in the past, and her performance was a powerful show of support for the Democratic party. Last month, Pink officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris at a fundraising Zoom call that broke an attendance record for the platform, and raised nearly $2 million.
"We are in this … and I'm just really grateful that us women are going to have a voice, and we've always made our voices heard, and now it's time to just get extra loud," the singer said during the call, per The Wrap. "Let's go. Let's get loud."
