Pink had the best response to a troll who said she 'looks so old'
A critic tried to come for Pink — but she turned it into an empowering message of self-love.
The pop star and “Most Beautiful” cover star responded to a troll — note the Twitter bio of “hater fish” — who tweeted a negative comment about her appearance.
Wow Pink looks so old that should be named Purple instead

Many of the 38-year-old singer’s fans fired back at the comment, but, as it turns out, she didn’t need defending. The mom of two took it upon herself to take down the “little purple troll” and remind him or her that she has “earned every f***ing minute of [her] 38 years.”
You must be from la. Well, there are a few people left in the world that choose to age naturally. And I’ve earned every fucking minute of my 38 years. How you lookin though? Cause I never heard of ya til you put my name in your mouth. I shall call you little purple troll. https://t.co/3WcH2TRrHW

“I am of the mindset that it’s a blessing to grow old,” she continued in another tweet. “That if your face has lines around your eyes and mouth, it means you’ve laughed a lot. I pray I look older in 10 years, ’cause that will mean I’m alive.”
Fans were quick to praise her inspiring attitude, including one who suggested that she’d probably be performing into her 80s. Pink had the perfect name for the tour lined up.
You know I will! I’ll call it “the wrinkles and rolls tour” https://t.co/DMXdgyu3dB
