Pop singer Pink stopped her concert at Allianz Stadium in Sydney after a fan went into labor on Friday, February 9, 2024. This was the first Australian show of the artist's Summer Carnival stadium tour. The 44-year-old musician was alerted about an audience member going into labor in the middle of a mosh pit as she was performing Our Song.

Referencing her real name, Alecia Beth Moore, the singer exclaimed:

"Is it Alecia or Alex being born right now? I feel like we shouldn’t be looking. Everyone give her her privacy."

As the mother was taken to the hospital on a stretcher, Pink congratulated her and resumed the concert.

This is not the first time a fan has gone into labor at the 44-year-old musician's show. During Pink's July 2023 concert in Boston, another pregnant concertgoer, Angela Mercer went into labor at the start of the show, as per E! Online. However, she ended up walking to a hospital a mile away from the venue to avoid traffic.
