Note to Pink: I think it's ok if you get drunk every once in awhile. 
Pink tried to check herself into rehab earlier this year - after realizing she couldn't have fun without alcohol.
The So What hitmaker split from her husband Carey Hart in February this year.
And the singer, real name Alecia Moore, admits her drinking spiraled out of control as her marriage broke down.
She says, "A few months ago, I went to see a specialist because I thought I was an alcoholic.
"I have a problem with my vices. I've kicked the drugs, but every now and then I have to go out and get completely wasted on alcohol.
"For me it's about losing control. I'm such a control freak it's very hard for me to lose my inhibitions without something chemical inside me. How do you really have fun if there isn't a little drink in you? I don't actually know.
"I checked into Canyon Ranch in Tucson, Arizona, in the summer and I went to see a therapist, telling him I was an alcoholic.
"He asked me when I'd had my last drink and I couldn't remember - it had been a few weeks previously.
"I then read the AA [Alcoholics Anonymous] manual cover to cover and we talked. I realized I wasn't an alcoholic, just someone who likes to get drunk every now and again. I'm trying to work out if that's a bad thing."

I would definitely not consider her an alcoholic, although if she can't have fun without getting drunk first maybe she does need some counseling.
If there's any question one may be an alcoholic, chances are they normally are. Alcoholics Anonymous defines an alcoholic as "We are people who have lost the ability to control our drinking".
I wish her the best of luck.

It's a good thing Pink isn't going to Palm Springs with some certain ladies... ;)
Personally, I think that it's a publicity thing. I still think it's weird that celebrities go into rehab and come out more famous than ever... and do it all on purpose. It used to be so hush hush. Ahhh, the days of discretion...
