AceShowbiz - Pink debuts a powerful music video for her new single "What About Us". Following the violence that hit Charlottesville during white supremacist rally over the weekend, the singer urges people to stop hatred and bigotry in her latest clip which is directed by Georgia Hudson and features choreography by The GoldenBoyz.
"We are problems that want to be solved /We are children that need to be loved /We were willin', we came when you called /But man, you fooled us, enough is enough," she sings. "What about us? What about all the times you said you had the answers? /What about us? What about all the broken happy ever afters? /What about us? What about all the plans that ended in disaster? /What about love? What about trust? What about us?"
"What About Us" is recorded for Pink's next studio installment. Called "Beautiful Trauma", the new album is her first effort in five years since 2012's "The Truth About Love". It will be released across the country in October this year.

She continued, "I'm certifiably, insanely proud of this album. It's been a while, and I'm grateful for all the years we've had. Looking forward to the next chapter with you."
