She can.. she actually will comeback with a fresh idea after this BMAs performance. Her best is still Glitter In The Air, Try (both AMA and Grammy), then Sober and Just Like Fire.

Lol I know she can, I meant it as "Can she hurry up and do so" because the same **** is annoying af. The problem with P!nk is that she limits everything she does. Like girl, just go all the **** out and give it your best.

To top herself she first needs an awesome song.

I hate it when live vocals and playback are mixed in her performances. She just sings two-three words here and there and then silence. But it seems from what I see on the web, that most people liked it.
I loved the "yeeeys" while sitting on the clock towards the end. They were the same "yeys" like when performing JGMAR at the Grammys.
She should seriously make a song about how she loves flying and doesn't care about what others think of it.
Also: I wanna punch Justin Bieber in the face.

Aw, poor Biebs. He looked little stunned by real artistic talent, didn't he?

Lmfao Justin Bieber is a gramlin in disguise. He is that douche bag in High School where there was no beef between you guys, you just knew you both hated each other and you wanted to fight him in the teachers car parking lot.

It was bad. It was because every other popstar could've done the same easily.
She got so lazy with her music, her image, her interviews and now her performances. I was like "SING DAMMIT, YOU'RE PERFORMING" - on tour it's not a big problem, but if you're doing an award show performance you have to sing. You're a freakin singer. But she just kept trying to look badass and fierce while doing absolutely nothing on stage. It was so lazy.
And who's the creative director of her performances? If it's still Baz Halpin, she needs to fire him already. The performance could've been miles better with similar ideas but executed better. She could've be in that huge ass clock, performing some silk stuff while the clock is on fire at the end. Or she could've been that thing which swings below the clock with the silks, climbing up slowly ('trying to go higher" on the ropes while the fire is elevating below her "running out of time". They could've make the background (with simply projecting different cameras) seem like it's all mirrors, it would look so dope and Alice-ish. I could go on but no, she swinged from A stage to B stage a la VMAs and it looked really amateur how the dancers were trying to keep the choreography and start/catch her. Why didn't you use someone from the last tour who's used to acrobatics? Oh, and by the way you looked bored and like you wanted to be elsewhere. She even seemed pissed at the end. I guess because she felt it wasn't great? Hope so. At the end of the day you're a singer, Beth. A SINGER.
This is not a meltdown, I'm just so disappointed to see her phoning it in with her performances as well.

Not sure what to say. She rehearsed this for five days?
I liked the beginning. A capella part was great imo. The acrobatics were nothing special, but okay I guess. Then, she didn't do much on the stage and nothing really happened there expect for a few lazy moves which felt awkward. She gained weight and was out of shape. Or maybe she got too old for this ****. idk The clock part was amazing, but even there she was out of breath. She barely sung at some parts, which I found annoying. I'd rather listen to her voice which is why I'm looking forward to that Kimmel perfomance. She let tricks and silks be primary instead of singing.
This mini era (let's call it that way), they went safe in every department. Standard, proven tricks and formulas. Generic radio friendly pop Max Martin-produced track, acrobatics, Carey and Willow in the video, Dave Meyers, old creative directors...Nothing that hasn't been done before. And I get it, since it's for a crappy Disney movie, which is why I'm still not afraid, cuz she did this for a certain purpose and probably got money for it.
At some part I was also thinking that maybe she spoiled us to expect groundbreaking performances every time.
Finally, as for the acrobatics, I've realized it's her thing. She likes it, does better than everybody, others tried and failed to do it. It's better than shaking your ass or perform lazy dance moves while lypsyncing. People like it and she won't do it forever. I think one day we'll remember it and miss it very much, cuz pop scene won't have performers like her any time soon.

I liked the performance minus the backing track being too loud. The only problem i have is with the song, i do not feel it at all. And she looked pissed, maybe something didn't go well.

Don't kill me for saying this but man, I hate her new music. Just Like Fire and Today's The Day is utter trash. It's just lame and sucky.
I'm not saying this because it's "lets bash Alecia time" but I'm saying this without stan goggles on. The music is crap, lame, and just immature imo. I don't know why she keeps herself in a box.

I think this is just a song for willow. She probably did this soundtrack for her, so i'll wait for the actual album before i criticize. Maybe she still has that spark in her.

Today's the Day is her worst song ever but Just Like Jesus is an undeniable fun bop.

I feel bad for saying that but I know I can say it here, because this is the most understanding and humble fanbase on here. I feel bad because her music has spoken to me during the darkest of times. She has given me so much strength to just stand up and say "**** it, I'm me" and I've been strong since.
Nowadays she is just the soccer mum I don't connect with anymore. Don't get me wrong, she will always be my all time fave but I just can't connect.
