They added: ‘One of the most incredibly talented and best singers of our generation. Her daughter sounded so amazing too! So beautiful!’; ‘This was such an amazing performance. Pink is such a strong woman and amazing artist. And her daughter has a beautiful voice. I love this song.’
Their duet takes place shortly after the 13-year-old leaves her mother’s Summer Carnival Tour to pursue her own passion for theater.
The singer has a daughter and a seven-year-old son, Jameson, with her husband Carey Hart, whom she married in 2006.
The mother-daughter duo wore all-black outfits and stood side by side under the bright spotlights on stage.
Pink wore a strapless corset top and loose black pants that were cinched around her waist with a black and silver belt.
Pleated fabric was also partially wrapped behind the singer for a stylish look, which she completed with a pair of black boots.
Willow wore a simple black shirt, black pants and combat boots, which gave her a tough look.
The teenager follows her mother’s example and covered the song A Million Dreams for The Greatest Showman: Reimagined in 2018.

A few years later, in 2021, the Grammy winner and her daughter released a duet called Cover Me In Sunshine. The song charted in several countries, such as number six on the Australian (ARIA) chart.
Earlier this year in February, Willow joined her mother on stage during her Summer Carnival Tour in Australia and the duo sang songs including Cover Me In Sunshine.
And last January, Pink proudly shared a clip of her daughter, who was 11 at the time, singing an Olivia Rodrigo cover during her first recital.
Pink is in the midst of her Summer Carnival Tour – the next date is scheduled for Saturday, August 24 in Chicago at Soldier Field.
The Raise Your Glass singer will also be performing in cities across the US and Vancouver through November this year.
The final date of her tour is scheduled for November 20 at the Colonial Life Arena in Columbia, South Carolina.
A few months earlier, in June, the artist announced on her Instagram page that Willow was taking a step back from performing on her mother’s tour to pursue her passion for theater.
In a video she uploaded to her fans and followers, Pink was seen having a heartfelt conversation with the teen. “I want you to tell me everything. You’re leaving me. Why would you ever do that?” she asked playfully.
The star added: “What are you going to do when you get home, what are you looking forward to?” Willow revealed she will be starring in a production of Bye Bye Birdie.
“Okay, theater. So, you fell in love with Mamma Mia? I remember when you first walked on stage in Mamma Mia and you were like…,” Pink said, throwing her arms in the air excitedly.
“And I thought, ‘Who is that person?’ I’d never seen you that big before, and your energy was six times the size of your body. It was amazing. I was blown away.”

Willow dreamed of doing “professional” theater and eventually getting the chance to perform on Broadway.
Pink then told her daughter, “You have your own track and you want to ride it. I think that’s great for you.”
“I’ll tell you, in this last recital I saw a version of you that I didn’t know existed. And it’s been really wild to watch you grow up and outgrow me.”
She also wrote in the caption of the post at the time, “This weekend’s shows were Willow’s final performances before she takes a break to pursue her dreams.”
“And I thought, ‘Who is that person?’ I’d never seen you that big before, and your energy was six times the size of your body. It was amazing. I was blown away,” she said.
“It’s wild watching your kids grow up and outgrow you, but I’m beyond proud. We all are. I’m going to miss you so much. ❤️❤️❤️,” the singer concluded
She added: ‘I promised I wouldn’t cry. I did NOT promise I wouldn’t hyperventilate during our hug.’
“It’s wild watching your kids grow up and outgrow you, but I’m beyond proud. We all are. I’m going to miss you so much. ❤️❤️❤️,” the singer concluded.
In addition to her tour, Pink has had a busy summer and was spotted at Wimbledon last July.
The award-winning singer will celebrate her 45th birthday next month, on September 8.
