Grammy Award winning pop singer-songwriter Pink has released the album art of her forthcoming fifth studio album, Funhouse. The album will be released on October 28, 2008 by LaFace Records/Zomba/Sony BMG.

The album’s lead single, “So What,” written by Pink, Max Martin, K.K. Stryker and Shellback, has already been released and has become a Top 10 hit single in the U.S. and Canada.  Pink performed the single at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards (MTV VMAs), on September 7, 2008 where she experienced a wardrobe malfunction.

Here is the music video for “So What,” directed by Dave Meyers.

Pink has also made headlines with her comments about Republican Vice Presidential candidate Governor Sarah Palin.

“If I were writing a letter to Sarah Palin,” Pink told PopEater during her Sessions taping on Thursday, “it would be a lot of whys and hows. Who are you? Do you know? Why do you hate animals? Please point out Iraq on a map …”

What scares Pink are women who consider the Alaska governor’s selection a feminist victory. “This woman hates women,” the singer said. “She is not a feminist. She is not the woman that’s going to come behind Hillary Clinton and do anything that Hillary Clinton would’ve been capable of … I can’t imagine overturning Roe vs. Wade. She’s not of this time. The woman terrifies me.”

Pink, an animal rights activist, suggests creatures other than humans should be just as scared of Palin: “I can’t imagine shooting a wolf out of a helicopter.”
