PINK'S Funhouse certainly lived up to its name last night as Sheffield Arena was turned into a one-night-only circus with everyone's favourite outrageous blonde as the ringmaster.
The lights dimmed, the stage floor parted and the pint-sized singer rose out of the smoke to deafening applause. Pink was in the building.

Were you there? What did you think?The show kicked off with the beat-driven Bad Influence which die-hard fans will recognise from the singer's new album and the stage came alive with carnival characters.
The 29-year-old proved she's still got what it takes then by stripping down to red sparkly leggings and a tiny top that showed off her legendary killer abs. She launched into a back-to-back collection of classics, including Just Like A Pill, Who Knew and Don't Let Me Get Me - all to the delight of the Sheffield crowd.
Her rendition of I Touch Myself was a little random as the singer writhed around on a couch full of holes wearing just a lacy bra and cropped leggings. Hands popped out of the holes to stroke her suggestively as she sang but if the fans thought it was weird, they never showed it.
She appeared again in low slung jeans, a white vest and bare feet to sing Family Portrait one-on-one with the piano in what was one of many highlights of the evening.
One thing from this show is perfectly clear. This lady can sing.
Every song was live, including an impressive acoustic set, and whether she was belting out the big notes or softly singing an emotional ballad, the crowd was left breathless.
"I call that one a Christmas song," she said of Family Portrait afterwards.
"I think because it reminds me of the holidays…is that a bit dark?" she added with a cackle.
She also complained to the Sheffield crowd about the weather we've been having in Britain recently before adding: "But the sun came out today, so I no longer wanna kill myself!"
She then threw on a leather jacket and announced that the next song 'made her dance like an idiot' and invited Sheffield to join her in looking like morons before launching into Leave Me Alone.
No Pink-favourites were overlooked in the show and her rendition of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody was another impressive highlight as were the incredible acrobatics going on overhead during Sober.
Pink finished the night off in a white cut out leotard that was more barely than there. Her dancers placed her in safety harnesses and sent her spinning and diving over the heads of the enraptured audience. Finally she was lowered into a pool of water and emerged dripping from head to toe before going into a final spin and showering the crowds below.
Pink's Funhouse was the only place to be in Sheffield last night. Let's hope it's not too long before the circus is back in town…
