P!nk: 'Write your story - even if you're the only one to read it'

Songstress P!nk has just received the BMI President's Award for Songwriting, which recognises "outstanding achievement in songwriting and global impact on pop culture and the entertainment industry", and she has revealed how proud she is of reaching this impressive milestone. 

Speaking to Billboard magazine on the red carpet before the ceremony began last night, the superstar explained that it's an honour to be recognised for her creative talent and she's very happy to receive such a high accolade:

"It's not about popularity. It's about what's always been important to me: the serious side of life. I'm sort of between songwriting and performing. If those are the two things I'm remembered for, then I'm stoked."

During her acceptance speech, the 'Just Give Me A Reason' sensation told the crowd that it's important to write even if you don't have an audience: "write your story… even if you're the only one to read it."
