Pink has outdone herself. The pop star just went down in history as having one of the highest-grossing tours of her career. The singer also had the second-highest-grossing tour of any female artist. But her historic tour did not come without its issues.

According to Billboard, Pink unveiled her “Beautiful Trauma” world tour in 2017 for acts only in North America and Australia. However, she was quickly forced to open acts in more places due to her popularity on the big stage.

Now that her tour is wrapping the numbers show $397.3 million in grosses and 3,088,647 tickets sold, according to figures reported to Billboard.

One of the reasons why Pink’s tours have become so popular is her high-wired aerialist aesthetic to her live shows. The singer told CBS that she met an aerialist who used to work for Cher and asked her to teach her aerial silks while she sang.

“She was like ‘Alright, well we're going to start at the jungle gym and you’re going to hang upside down and I’m going to punch you in the stomach while you sing because that’s what it's going to ultimately feel like when you’re singing and if you can do this then I will teach you acrobatics.’” It’s safe to say Pink can sing well while getting punched in the stomach. 

Pink’s world tour also suffered an accident. A private jet carrying her manager and tour members went up in flames at Denmark’s airport on Monday night. Pink was not on board the aircraft and her manager and crew survived the ordeal. 

The Copenhagen Post reported that the 10 people who were on board the aircraft were evacuated without any injuries. East Jutland Police do not know the reason for the occurrence and investigation has been opened to reveal the cause of the incident.
