P!nk - So What

The song was P!nk’s first #1 solo hit in the U.S., reaching the top spot in its fourth week on the Hot 100. The lyrics are based on her separation from motocross racer Carey Hart, which occurred six months prior to the release.

P!nk told the story of this song: "So What was a joke. I heard this beat from Max Martin. It's such a fun beat, so fun. And I was actually kidding when I said "I guess I just lost my husband, I don't know where he went." Ha ha, that's really funny. Let's keep it and it just kind of went from there. And it just got more and more wrong. The more lines we wrote, the wronger it was. And we kept it because I don't really care. I don't think about the consequences when I write songs and now I am regretting every second of it. No, I'm not."

The music video for "So What" was directed by longtime collaborator Dave Meyers. It shows P!nk drinking while riding a lawnmower, sawing down a tree, streaking on a red carpet appearance and other activities. The video also features a cameo appearance from Hart.
