Pink Gets Wet for Grammy Performance

[Thanks to Joe]
See, it's still possible to catch attention in showbusiness, even in these jaded times. But I say with something this daring in several ways (no safety line!), Pink deserves all the attention she gets.
And if that's not playback, that's good concentration too!

Update: I don't know Pink other than just another pop singress. But upon repeated viewings I'm getting past "woa, sexy", through "woa, acrobatic" to "woa, good song and really good performance".

Talk about multitasking. She has it all. Never missed a beat with the song.

If you have no fear. There is no limit to what you can do.

I wouldn't think you could get wet and have a live mic, but what do I know. Maybe they make waterproof ones now. Stunning visually, and what a beautiful song. I love Cirque du Soleil, but this makes you realize how much better their shows could be with even better music.

Oh, and here's a vid that's a little better quality, and without the pop ups.

Anyone know the details of how she got wet? I could prolly Google that.

Surely there must be splash-proof mics, some singers may not want to give up in an outdoors concert just because it starts to drizzle.

Indeed we do not see how she gets wet. Possibly it's done by a couple guys with buckets on the ground, which would also allow for shielding the mic from the brunt of it.

(It might also just be wrapped in thin food-wrap plastic.)
