AceShowbiz - Pink quips she is a "rash" that does "not go away." The "Never Gonna Not Dance Again" hitmaker - who unleashed her first single, "There You Go", in 2000 - says her upcoming album "Trustfall" is a "nice two fingers for all the haters" who think she is no longer relevant but she's happy for her music to keep evolving with her life experiences.

"I am officially a rash. I do not go away. Each album is a chapter in my life in this experience I'm having. I was a little punk when I wrote 'Can't Take Me Home' (2000 debut album) and 'Missundaztood' (the 2002 follow-up). I still feel that way at times but 'Trustfall' is right now," she told The Sun newspaper.

"And this, my ninth album, is also a nice two fingers for all the haters that think I don't matter. It's also been a 20-year conversation between me and people all over the world just trying to figure out how to be human."

The 43-year-old star is "stoked" that she's still a successful recording artist. She said, "It's been therapy for me and the shows are like group therapy. And I feel nothing but grateful. I'm stoked. I love that I still get to do this and I still have a lot to say."

Pink will head off on a huge global tour in support of the record and she's promised fans a balance between her classic hits and new material. She teased, "The thing with putting a show together like mine is I want it to be amazing but I want to have fun."

"And it's a long show too. I will try and get five or six new songs in with the favourites - keep rotating the favourites because that's what I want to see when I go and see a show. I want to have every emotion available to be felt, so we try to hit it from all angles. I'm so excited."
