P!nk recently took the stage at the Democratic National Convention with a surprise guest—her 13-year-old daughter, Willow. The duo performed a stripped-down version of her top 20 Billboard Hot 100 hit “What About Us.”
On Aug. 27, P!nk gave fans a glimpse behind the scenes by sharing footage from her Summer Carnival Tour on social media.
The post included a candid moment before the Aug. 22 DNC performance, where P!nk offered her daughter some supportive advice: “Just do your thing. Whatever you don’t sing, I will.” With those words, the two stepped out to deliver a powerful duet.
Their performance followed emotional speeches from parents and students addressing the tragic impact of gun violence in U.S. schools.
P!nk began the song with the lyrics, “We are searchlights, we can see in the dark,” setting the stage for Willow to join in with her verse: “We are billions of beautiful hearts, and you sold us down the river too far.” Accompanied by three backup singers and an acoustic guitar, the mother-daughter pair delivered a performance that stood out on a night filled with notable musical acts.
This isn’t the first time Willow has joined her mother on stage. In 2023, the duo performed “Cover Me in Sunshine” during the opening night of P!nk’s Summer Carnival Tour.
The “Raise Your Glass” singer has often expressed her pride in Willow’s talents, telling People, “She’s got a voice, man. She’s a little bird. She wants to do Broadway and then be a trauma surgeon. Yeah, she’s rad.”
The final night of the DNC also featured performances by The Chicks, Stevie Wonder, and John Legend. Vice President Kamala Harris closed the event by accepting the Democratic nomination for president.
