Noughties pop sensation Pink has earned almost $700 million (£554 million) during her mammoth 18-month world tour.

The So What hitmaker, 45, took her Summer Carnival Tour across the world – regardless of the season – before embarking on her Trustfall Tour and P!nk Live amounting to 128 shows.

Together, these tours saw Pink, real name Alecia Moore Hart, earn $693.8 million (£549 million) and sell 4.8 million tickets, according to Billboard Boxscore.

The Summer Carnival makes up the bulk of her 2023-2024 tour earnings, raking in $584.7 million (£462.9 million).

She earned $60.8 million (£48.1 million) from the Trustfall Tour, and $48.3 (£38.2 million) million during the Live 2024 run.

Across nine shows in October alone, the popstar grossed $44.2 million (£34.9 million) and sold 254,000 tickets making her the biggest touring act of the month.

These figures make The Summer Carnival the second highest-grossing tour in history for a female artist behind Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour which is predicted to have earned her billions.

In comparison, Beyonce’s mammoth Renaissance World Tour last year grossed $579.8 million (£459 million) across 56 shows.

Pink’s latest run of shows hasn’t been without chaotic moments, from booting a circumcision protestor out of one venue and a song seemingly sending another fan into labour.

She went viral on social media after a fan caught the moment another concert attendee presented her with her dead mum’s ashes – a sentence you don’t read every day.

In October, the songstress was ‘disappointed’ to have to postpone a show in Lincoln, Nebraska just one day before she was set to hit the stage, along with three other US shows.

She didn’t give a reason for the postponement but apologised to fans for the upheaval.

The statement, posted on Pink’s Instagram account, read: ‘Due to reasons beyond my control, we need to postpone our next four shows in Lincoln, Sioux Falls, Milwaukee and Des Moines.

‘I’m so disappointed to share this news, but we are working on rescheduling each of these shows as soon as we can. Your tickets will still be valid.’

She added that she was ‘sending love and health to you all’, and thanked her fans for their ‘understanding’.

Earlier in the year, Pink cancelled her show in Bern, Switzerland, following a consultation with her doctor.

She said she had ‘been advised that I’m unable to continue’, but did not specify the illness.

In September 2023, she also cancelled a show just hours before after coming down with a ‘bad sinus infection’, and again the following month due to ‘family medical issues’.
