Hello!

Pink stopped her Brisbane show to offer a heartwarming hug to a young teenage girl, who was grieving the loss of her mother.

Pink called out for Leah Murphy, 14, after the crowd at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre helped pass her sign to the singer which read “My name is Leah – I’m 14 years old. I lost my beautiful Mum last month. I would LOVE a hug … Please!”

“Pink read our sign and straight away said where’s Leah?” Leah told The Courier-Mail.

“She came down the stairs and gave me a big, long hug.”

“She told me that I looked pretty. She said ‘oh don’t cry’. She said that everything was going to be OK. Then she signed my arm and we took a selfie.”

“It meant everything. It was a dream come true.”

Leah’s mother Debbie had bought tickets to Pink’s Sydney show and had planned to go with a friend but when she passed away in June, Leah decided to go in her place.

“We couldn’t believe it worked,” Leah’s aunt Katrina Donkin said.

“She hugged her so tight Leah cried. It was so beautiful and so meaningful.”

“We think her mum sent her a hug from heaven.”

  • Awww that’s beautiful. So many artists would have just ignored it and continued on. It’s amazing that Pink takes the time to engage with her fans.

  • So lovely of pink to do that! Although I find it a bit odd that’s she took a sign to a concert saying that her mum has died.
