P!NK is facing her fears head on.

On the Tuesday (June 2) episode of Late Night with Seth Meyers, the TRUSTFALL singer explained why she doesn't let her fear of heights stop her from performing high-flying acts and aerial stunts in her shows, per People.

P!NK admitted to host Seth Meyers that she "cannot handle heights," even recalling a time she and her husband Carey Hart were driving along a cliff when she made him let her out to walk instead. However, she said that is exactly why she embraces her aerial performances, saying, "I believe in feeling the fear and doing it anyway."

"It's so freeing. My mom was once like, 'Aren't you ever going to stay on the ground?' And I was like, 'Why would I?'" she said. "If I can do this, if I can convince people to shoot me out of a stage floor, why wouldn't I do that? It's so much fun."

P!NK added that it's fun for the crowd as well.

"It turns 50-year-old men into 6-year-old boys... Like the first time you see magic," she said. "I get that every night from people."

The "So What" musician is expected to bring some of that magic when she hosts the 2026 Tony Awards on Sunday (June 7). In a recent conversation with CBS Mornings, she teased some "acrobatic moments" in the show "but not in the way that you would normally see me doing acrobatic moments."
