"Continued note to self: Every once in a while you consider altering your face, and then you watch a show where you want to see what the person is feeling... and their face doesn’t move. I’m cannot get behind it. I just can’t."
She even tweeted her reason for being against going under the knife.

"I’m fortunate because I’ve never really depended on my looks," she tweeted. "I want my children to know what I look like when I'm angry."
"I’ve decided that my talent and my individuality is far more important than my face."
"So get on board cause I am about to AGE THE OL FASHIONED WAY (in a tutu ruling [expletive] at 30 mph 100 ft in the air over 40) yasssssssss."
All of Pink's tweets received such a supportive reception from fans.
"Pink, your face is absolutely perfect and no need to improve anything. So please never ever get yourself a mask face. You’re [expletive] perfect]," the fan wrote, referencing one of her songs.
Even Kelly Clarkson tweeted at the star.
The Voice judge has always promoted self-love and body positivity.
Pink then saw Kelly's tweet and replied with, "Deal!"
With how inspirational Pink's tweets were, it's only fair that we remind you of her November interview with "Billboard."

In it, she was shown old music videos and asked to share how she felt about her body back then.
As you probably already guessed, her answers were truly amazing.
To start off, the singer was shown her first-ever music video, which was for the 2000 song, "There You Go."
Billboard
"I think this is the prettiest I've ever looked, and will ever look," she said as she watched her former self ride a motorcycle through an ex's window.
Very fittingly, she had pink hair in the video.
"I’d just started riding motorcycles. I almost crashed 85 times," she said.
Billboard
Being the rebel that she is, Pink shared how she was heavy on the weed back then.
The video's director even asked her to stop smoking since she couldn't open her eyes!
Next up was an image of her dangling in the air from the 2010 Grammys.
Billboard
"I can't believe they let me do that. They let me do a song that wasn't a single ... they let me fly a 100 feet in the air with no harness, with water," she said, adding that the experience was "so much fun."
Speaking of award shows, she gave an emotional speech about body image in 2017 at the VMAS.

While accepting the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, she shared the amazing speech that she gave to her daughter after she said that she was ugly.
"And I said to her, ‘Do you see me growing my hair?’ She said, ‘No, mama.’ I said, ‘Do you see me changing my body?’ ‘No, mama.’ ‘Do you see me changing the way I present myself to the world?’ ‘No, mama.’"

"‘OK! So, baby girl. We don’t change. We take the gravel and the shell and we make a pearl. And we help other people to change so they can see more kinds of beauty.’"
During the singer's "Billboard" interview, she went super deep when shown the 2013 music video for "Just Give Me a Reason."

She recalled the story of being in a fitting for the video and thinking that she was fat.
"I didn't want to wear anything sexy or revealing," she said.
"And now I'm looking at this video and going, "god, I was so thin."

She continued: "That's what we do to ourselves, and we should stop it," she pointed out. "And now I'm almost 150 pounds, and I look [expletive] awesome."
Yass, Pink!
