Fan throws mother’s ashes on stage at Pink concert
Singing sensation Pink was left momentarily speechless after a fan threw a bag of their mother’s ashes on stage mid-performance.
The singer was just four songs into her headlining set at the British Summer Time festival in London’s Hyde Park when she grabbed a large package of white powder that had been thrown across the stage.
“Is this your mum?” a confused Pink asked.
“I don’t know how I feel about this.”
Simply stunned, the singer then placed the package down behind the front-of-stage speakers and continued performing the current song, Just Like A Pill.
Pink did not speak out about the bizarre situation, but social media users put the concert-goer on blast for the act.
“Someone gave their Mothers ashes to Pink. I need yall to have boundaries like girl what?” one fan wrote.
“She handled it well cause I’d definitely be mad that someone handed me their mom’s ashes,” another added.
“I feel like security at a concert will be like going thru TSA if people don’t stop being WEIRD,” a third wrote.
Other online users had more extreme takes, “I would have started snorting their mother on stage,” one person wrote on twitter, while another insisted they would’ve “sprinkled it on the crowd.”
This incident follows a string of boundary-breaking events at pop stars’ concerts, with singer Bebe Rexha receiving stitches after a fan threw a phone at her head, and another singer Ava Max having to end her show abruptly after a concert-goer rushed the stage and slapped her in the face.
Pink will be returning to Australia for a string of stadium shows in February 2024.
While the star hasn’t touched on the matter, there’s a good chance she'd recommend leaving the deceased at home.
