It has been revealed by her that this was one of her favorite songs and that this is the song that would best capture everything about her coming out as a lesbian and everything that she wanted to tell the world
It sickens me the level of prejudice on this board. If this was a male singer coming out, there would be droves of support and clapping. With Charice, everybody is asking why isn't she looking more feminine and why would she give up her career like that. Image and self affirmation are very important aspects of coming out and realizing who you are. Regardless of what came before, people should be supportive of her choice, or at least respect them. When you see a music forum with mostly gay, male, young users and everybody acting in this bizarre way, you figure why the whole community still suffers so much prejudice.
That Pink is a gay icon, what a breakthrough! Congrats! Let's kill 2 birds with one stone. Not only we'll make fun of someone coming out, we'll also drag someone that has a huge lesbian following and whose image does not fit the standard. To think this is 2013 and people still don't really grasp individualism and let gender symbols define them.
