We've heard the "if you've got it, flaunt it" mantra a million times... but Pink totally deserves to flaunt what she's got!

The 34-year-old singer, renowned for jaw-dropping aerial acrobatics at her concerts, has shown off her incredible bod on the cover of Who Magazine's Body Issue, out today.

Having been a gymnast since eight years of age, Pink has always valued strength over looking skinny.

"Instead of thinking, 'Am I skinny?' I grew up thinking, 'Am I fast enough? How can I use my body?'," Pink told the mag. "I'm a person who could always lose a couple here and there but I would rather be strong than bony."

Amen to that! Pink is already teaching her body image gospel to three-year-old daughter Willow, who asked mum if they could have a "naked booby butt dance party". Too cute!

Pink added that while she's 4.5kg heavier than before she had Willow, she's currently in "the best shape of my life".

And like a lot of women, Pink's weight has yo-yoed over the years.

"I fluctuate up and down," she revealed. "I can be chubby and I like to eat. I don't think I'll ever be pretty. I wasn't raised to be pretty. I was raised to be funny and talented and stand for something and give back."

Pink, you stand for awesome to us.

Last month, Pink sparked pregnancy rumours by tweeting: "I love that every time I find a box of Girl Scout cookies I'm pregnant. Guilty: I'm having a thin mint:)."

Was it just a joke about people's comments about her weight or a pregnancy hint? Pink's keeping mum on that!
