Caught Live: Pink in Cologne

PINK was cursing her booze ban as she kicked off her Funhouse Summer Carnival Tour in Germany.
I caught up with her backstage in Cologne on Saturday night, and she told me how nervous she was about performing some terrifying, pant ruining acrobatic stunts.

She said: "I'm not allowed to drink on tour. I wish I did as I'm so nervous about tonight. I've only practised it once!"

Pity, the last time she was in Germany she got stuck in and drank four one-litre steins.

"I'm no puker," she said. "I just lie in bed and my head spins around."

Pink's ability to handle her stomach came in handy at the RheinEnergieStadion when she exploded on to the stage out of a cannon and suspended by balloons.

Both TAKE THAT and BRITNEY SPEARS have had circus themes - but Pink performs ALL the risky moves herself.

Her show is so dangerous she's been insured for £680,000 for when she headlines the Wireless Festival in Hyde Park in July.

Pink scored a lot of points with 52,000 Cologne fans as she went through death-defying manoeuvres.

At one point she pulled herself up two red curtains and spun around in the air, continuing to sing upside down.

Her medley featuring My Generation by THE WHO, GREEN DAY's Basket Case and Roxanne by THE POLICE - performed inside an inflatable ball - was another highlight.

Pink's big encore was floating Peter Pan-style above the crowd.

Expect more stunts when her tour arrives in the UK on June 11.

Wowsers.

She is one brave lady.

I think her insurers might want to up her value.

She is the best. Forget about Madonna and the rest. Not only is Pink a beauty and a great entertainer she has a nice husky voice. Most of the so-called singers nowadays seem to all sound the same. They all sound nasally, as if they are singing through their noses. I'm 64 and don't usually like pop stuff but Pink is special. I bought her "Funhouse Tour" DVD and so far I've watch it 12 times.
