"These are names that popped into my head, and not just music, but Hillary Clinton, Angelina Jolie," she said. "Or Miley Cyrus, if you're high as shit and you have a thing for tongues. You don't think, 'Oh yeah Woman of the Year? Pink for sure.' I don't, anyway, but I'm not going to argue with you," said Pink.
Pink was also honored by the Grammys, she received two nominations for her single, "Just Give Me a Reason," The Daily Mail added
