"Little known fact about me? I wish I could be more like the singer Pink. I wish I had the guts to chop my hair into a platinum blond mohawk and wear my heart on my sleeve without looking back. There were some songs on her early album Missundaztood where I really felt that she lifted the lyrics straight from my own diary and all her songs ever since are my go to when I need to feel inspired and can take on the world. I really do feel like we could be BFFs. Plus, it was never lost on me that Pink debuted with her shock of magenta hair and edgier music during the blonde, bubble gum era of Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Mandy Moore and Jessica Simpson. With that said, H=here&amp;#x27;s what I really love about Pink. She never wanted to be a &amp;quot;pop star.&amp;quot; She wanted to be a rock star. I&amp;#x27;m sure the record labels took her aside and begged her to tone down the hair, stop the cursing and maybe, please, add some autotune to a track or two to make things sound, you know, more like Britney (who I love, by the way, that isn&amp;#x27;t a dis) and she just kept on doing things her own way. I raise many glasses to that!! I think that she really made &amp;quot;being yourself&amp;quot; the coolest thing you can do in the music business. And you know who paid a lot of attention to that? Miley Cyrus, as evidenced by going around looking like Pink&amp;#x27;s twin recently! Say what you will about Miley growing up too fast or doing &amp;quot;grown up&amp;quot; things just to prove a point. But here&amp;#x27;s what I think . . . I think Miley never was comfortable being a Disney starlet or a pop princess. She was always a pierced, tattooed, combat boot wearing, mohawk loving kinda gal and was never allowed to set that side of her free. We can&amp;#x27;t fault her for being true to herself now and we certainly can&amp;#x27;t fault her for not winning any battles with the Disney channel to play Hannah Montana as a punk rock rebel! But, I would love is for Pink to take Miley under her wing, show her the ropes and have long chats about crazy haircuts, raw lyrics and not backing down to those that don&amp;#x27;t get your vision. Plus, Pink was the one who did the proposing to her husband Cary Hart. Yes, Liam proposed to Miley--but she&amp;#x27;s still raising eyebrows by getting engaged before she can buy a drink. I think Miley can learn a lot from Pink about raising eyebrows--and owning it! So, where is all this coming from? Well, Pink was on the Today Show this morning to perform and promote her new album The Truth About Love that came out today. Of course, Matt Lauer asked what she thought of Miley rocking the same hair do. I&amp;#x27;m sure that they were hoping to create some sort of rivalry or for Pink to roll her eyes at the thought of Miley doing anything like her. But instead, Pink said this: &amp;quot;I think [Miley&amp;#x27;s] beautiful. I think she rocks [the hair] way harder than I do. Everyone has long brown hair. When two girls get fearless and shave their heads its a big deal. I just think that maybe we&amp;#x27;re a little more daring. I love Miley!&amp;quot; I love the girl power and &amp;quot;we need to stick together&amp;quot; vibe. If there was a &amp;quot;Big Sister&amp;quot; type of program in the music world, I definitely think Miley and Pink would be paired up and be a force to be reckoned with!
