Besides her voice, there is another very alluring and commendable quality in Pink, her charitable nature. Her desire and passion for giving back to those less privileged than her have won her many fans. Only recently, we got to glimpse yet another charitable act by the star. The singer shelled out $10,000 for a painting which was created in just three minutes. The money will benefit victims of domestic violence. The painting in question was a beautiful image of late starlet Marilyn Monroe created by graffiti illustrator Erik Wahl.


The artist created the canvas at top speed to aid a charity called Linda’s Voice during an event in Brentwood, California.
