Pink doesn’t drink alcohol because she has a hard time with the day after.
The “So What” singer - who is famed for her wild lifestyle and has previously admitted taking illegal drugs - has curtailed the amount she drinks as it has a negative impact on her performances. Her husband Carey Hart, who she reunited with earlier this year, explained: “I don’t really really drink anymore,” Hart stated. “[Pink]‘s actually gotten really good about it, too. Her tour is so intense that she’s the same way as me. She can’t deal with the hangovers…If she has an off night, she falls from her trapeze, so that’s not so good.”
Professional motocross racer Carey - who married the now 29-year-old singer in January 2006, with the pair taking time away from their relationship in February last year - added he and Pink are happy since reuniting, but have no plans to start a family yet. He added to E! News: “It’s a long ways down. She still has another 18 months of touring, and I’m pretty heavy in competing again in all my businesses, so it’s definitely going to happen, but just not anytime soon.”

Jack White says illegal downloading is ruining “the romance” of music.
The Raconteurs, White Stripes and Dead Weather star - who has just launched his own online music service, The Vault - insists obtaining tracks without permission is ruining the music industry.
“A quick look at sales figures for albums will show anyone with a brain that there’s no doubt the world has collectively decided that there is nothing wrong with taking music for free and feeling no moral conundrum about it,” White said to the BBC Newsbeat.
“Download culture isn’t a very romantic experience for the fan regarding art, it cheapens it and makes it fast forwardable, and disposable, and a lot of times ignorable. That’s a shame for a lot of art and music that isn’t getting the chance that it would if people just left the needle on the record till the end of the side or what have you.”

Was Adam Lambert Ineligible for American Idol?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Artist News, Rumors, Upcoming Releases,
Hi Fi records is planning to release an album full of Adam Lambert’s songs that were recorded before he was ever on reality TV…but, there are several problems with the whole thing. It all started when Hi Fi made their intentions known. Lambert then responded, via the press, that these are not actually his songs but mere studio recordings which no longer reflect where he is musically - he contents they were meant to be demos for other singers.
The record company responded with a memo that suggests Lambert had a hand in writing most of the songs. Lambert promptly changed his tune (pun intended) at this point, saying the demos were indeed his…but, he doesn’t want them to be released.
