P!nk has put on a dazzling performance at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) and wowed audiences with an acrobatic display.

The pop-rockstar and her nine-year-old daughter Willow twisted above the stage at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles as they performed their song 'Cover Me In Sunshine' together.

She also busted out some of her most legendary songs, including 'All I Know So Far', 'So What', 'Who Knew', 'Just Like a Pill', and 'Just Give Me a Reason'.

After the incredible performance, the 41-year-old was presented with the Icon Award, which has only been bestowed to nine other people in the BBMA history.

P!nk now joins the likes of Garth Brooks, Cher, Neil Diamond, Celine Dion, Jennifer Lopez, Prince, Stevie Wonder, Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey on the exclusive Icon Award list.

During her acceptance speech, the artist praised her children for being there and being a part of her performance.

"Willow nailed it. Jameson, nailing it. I love what I do and I love the people I get to do it with. And we're pretty good at what we do," she said.

"But it wouldn't matter if no one came to see us and play with us, so all you guys out there and around the world, thank you for coming out.

"Thank you for letting us heal together. I cannot wait until we can do it again, so we can just sweat all over each other. And just this is an absolute honour."

She was presented the award by Jon Bon Jovi and P!nk took the time to call out the fellow rockstar for breaking her heart.

"I think you might already know this, but I did not come out of my room for a week when you married Dorthea," she said.

"I was 8. I ripped your poster off the wall. I replaced you with Sebastian Bach. And I'm glad you found lasting love, Jon, but you broke my heart. I take it as an apology."

But she had a beautiful message for everyone when she wrapped up her address to the raging crowd.

She told everyone: "Dream big...because what if it comes true?"

P!nk has won three Billboard Music Awards during her glittering career but this new gong will likely sit front and centre on her trophy cabinet.

The Icon Award is reserved for 'outstanding artists who have achieved excellence on the Billboard Charts and have made an incredible mark on music itself'.
