LISTEN TO P!NK
It’s a good thing the pop queen’s tunes
are so good, because what she says is
often bizarre. Spot the fake quote:
“
MY LIFE WAS ONCE WHISKEY, TEARS AND
CIGARETTES... NOW IT’S SNOT, TEARS
AND THE COLOUR OF POOP.”
“
I BASE MY STYLE ON PARIS HILTON.
THAT GIRL IS SO HOT.”
“
I CHANGE MY MIND SO MUCH
I NEED TWO BOYFRIENDS AND
A GIRLFRIEND.”
(
