Pop superstar P!nk revealed she spent New Year’s Eve in a hospital bed as she underwent neck surgery to have two discs replaced, sharing the news directly with fans on social media as 2026 began.

In an Instagram post from her hospital room late on December 31, the 46-year-old singer, born Alecia Moore, shared a selfie showing her smiling while wearing a hospital gown and a bandage around her neck. She explained that her stay wasn’t for cosmetic reasons, joking that it wasn’t a “fancy Face Lift,” but rather a procedure to give her “two new shiny discs in my neck,” calling her body “this vessel that I have and use it for all it’s worth.”

P!nk described 2025 as “a doozy” that ranged from “absolutely devastating to mildly annoying,” but also noted there was “so much beauty” amid the challenges of the past year. She wrote that she spent 2025 loving her children and helping them follow their dreams, and that she hopes to leave behind the hurt as she welcomes 2026.

The pop star acknowledged being alone in the hospital while her husband Carey Hart and their two children were snowboarding, and she used the moment to reflect on her year and share optimism about the year ahead. P!nk also spoke about choosing joy and positive thoughts as she enters the new year and expressed a commitment to helping others preserve choices for themselves and their families.

Supportive messages from fans and fellow artists followed her announcement, and this update comes after a challenging 2025 for P!nk that included a previously shared battle with a serious bacterial infection.
