Q1. Name a song from Funhouse.



An easy one to start off! I was nice and accepted answers from those of you who named songs from the deluxe edition or bonus tracks from the album, but I thought it was a bit of a push to accept songs exclusive to the live in Australia version. Quite a lot of pointless answers here though!

So What - Lotti, UV, Jahq and Cameron [+3pts]
Boring - troublepink and Frank [+1pt]
Could’ve Had Everything - Atonement [Pointless!]
This Is How It Goes Down ft. Travie McCoy - Harry [Pointless!]
Funhouse - Nelly [Pointless!]
Please Don’t Leave Me - Riser [Pointless!]
Why Did I Ever Like You - Liam [pointless]
Incorrect: Push You Away - Regina and T-Boy [+12pts]

Q2. Name a place that Pink went on her Truth About Love tour that was not the U.S.



Only one incorrect answer for this question and that was to Ultraviolence1989 for saying America, despite the question saying name a place that was not in the United States! Regina and Lotti both put different cities that were in the UK but I had to accept the country name, so they both just missed out on a pointless answer, unfortunately. There were however other answers that gained 0 points!

Q4. Name a song by another artist that Pink has featured on.



There was one clear popular answer here but also five pointless ones too! Unfortunately Ultraviolence was incorrect by answering Lily Allen, Pink does infact have a song with her but it’s her song on her album where Lily is the featured artist!

Eminem - Won’t Back Down - Cameron, Nelly, T-Boy, Jahq and Harry [+4pts]

Q5. Name a Pink song with a number in the title.



There were two stand out answers in this lot, and one very “thinking outside the box” one, for which I’ve decided to award a bonus -2 points too because even I didn’t think of it

Catch 22 - Regina, troublepink, Cameron and Frank [+3pts]
18 Wheeler - Lotti, Liam, Atonement and Harry [+3pts]
Blow Me (One Last Kiss) - UV and T-Boy [+1pt]

Q6.Name an artist that Pink has said she’s been inspired by.



Our first question where we don't have a pointless answer! We also unfortunately have two incorrect ones though. Firstly UV saying Britney, I put this wrong as in the beginning Pink’s label very much painted her as the “anti-britney”, there’s been numerous times where it’s been hinted at where Pink doesn’t want to be like Britney or molded into this “ideal popstar” image, I’m pretty sure there’s parts in the Stupid Girls video where she;s throwing a bit of shade Britney’s way As for Lady Gaga, I wasn’t as sure this was incorrect at first but after a bit of digging to see what articles etc I could find that imply that Pink was inspired by Gaga at any point, I came up empty, plus Pink has had a much longer career than Gaga so if anything it’s the other way around.

Madonna - Cameron, Riser and Lotti [+2pts]
Billy Joel - Harry and Regina [+1pt]
Linda Perry - Jahq and Nelly [+1pt]
Mary J Blige - Frank and T-Boy [+1pt]
Joan Jett - Liam and troublepink [+1pt]
Incorrect: Britney - UV [+12]
Incorrect: Lady Gaga - Atonement [+12]

Great results so far! I'm doing pretty well too considering I've never played a pointless game before

Q7. Name a Pink tour that’s not the Truth About Love tour.



Surprisingly, The Party Tour was the most popular answer here with The Funhouse and I'm Not Dead tours being pointless answers and only two people saying Pink's Summer Carnival tour ... Of course, we did have one answer involving the word "screech" which was bound to happen but for that you get twelve points Sam!

The Party Tour - Regina, troublepink, Frank, Liam and Cameron [+4pts]
The Try This Tour - Lotti, Harry and Riser [+2pts]
The Funhouse Summer Carnival Tour - Jahq and T-Boy [+1pt]
The Funhouse Tour - Atonement [pointless]

______________

Q8. Name a Pink music video under four minutes long.



Lots of pointless answers here! I was tempted to accept Frank’s answer but it’s not an official music video and was only featured in an episode on Spongebob, still very iconic though!

You Make Me Sick - Cameron, Regina and troublepink [+2pts]
Who Knew - Lotti [pointless]
Get The Party Started - Atonement [pointless]
So What - UV [pointless]
Please Don’t Leave Me - Harry [pointless]
Don’t Let Me Get Me - Jahq [pointless]
Leave Me Alone (I’m Lonely) - T-Boy [pointless]

Q9. Name an MTV Award that Pink has won.



Pink has won many awards in her career so far, lots of you managed to pick one of her MTV one that nobody else did and won yourselves a pointless answer and Nelly, although Pink does have awesome hair, it's not quite MTV award winning (yet )

Female Artist of The Year - Lotti, Regina and Cameron [+2]
Best Pop Artist - UV, Harry and troublepink [+2]
Best Video - Atonement and Liam [+1]
Live Performer - Jahq [pointless]
Download Of The Year - T-Boy [pointless]

________________

Q10. Name an "explicit" Pink song.



Again, quite a few pointless answers here! Lots of potential correct answers as Pink does have a tendency to swear a lot! Although Fingers is about a less than innocent subject, it doesn’t actually involve any explicit language, Oh My God also doesn’t contain swearing either and neither of the songs have the explicit symbol next to them on Spotify.

F***in’ Perfect - Cameron, UV, Nelly and Jahq [+3pts]
Hooker - Frank and T-Boy [+2pts]
God Is A DJ - Riser [pointless]
Last To Know - troublepink [pointless]
Blow Me (One Last Kiss) - Lotti [pointless]
Timebomb - Harry [pointless]
Incorrect: Fingers - Liam and Regina[+12pts]
Incorrect: Oh My God - Atonement [+12pts]

And our final leaderboard! (please, if you think I've added up your score wrong call me out on it bc maths really isn't my strong point )

Push You Away is available on itunes though

I know and I'd have been close to second if it was allowed. Considering that bad start, finishing 7th isn't too bad.

'Name a Pink music video under 4 minutes long' doesn't say it has to be an official video that was a promotional video for her own music. It's a music video, just like any other video she has appeared in
