CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENCE

Pink (Alisha Beth Moore) was born in the fall of 1979 in Pennsylvania, USA. This is also where the star’s childhood years were spent. When Alisha was a teenager, her family moved to Wisconsin. This is where Pink went to school.

The singer has Jewish roots on her mother’s side and German-Irish on her father’s side. The girl has a brother named Jason. Members of the Moore family are Catholics.

Despite her rebellious image, as a child Alisha was a very shy child. She constantly blushed, from which came the unpleasant nickname – Pink (translated as “pink”). However, there are several versions of the origin of the star’s stage name.

Musical talent manifested itself in the girl very early. Even in elementary school, the little girl firmly decided to become a rock star. It is likely that Alisha inherited her musical abilities from her father, who played the guitar perfectly. The man often sang with his daughter, accompanying her on the musical instrument.

As a teenager, Alisha developed her own musical taste. She listened to songs by Madonna, Janis Joplin, Billy Joel and Whitney Houston. However, the young performer’s favorite was Madonna. The girl even thought that the pop star was her biological mother.

Alisha had a beautiful and strong voice from childhood. Not only did she sing beautifully, but she also began composing poetry early on. The star made her stage debut at the age of 14.
