Perhaps Pink was feeling nostalgic for her "Lady Marmalade" days, because the look of her pre-Grammy awards party at Show was very Moulin Rouge, with red velvet, burlesque acts and lots of skin on display.
Event producer Corporate Events Manhattan costumed the waitstaff—barely—in tulle-netting thongs and pasties, and painted their torsos with Pink's song titles. The bartenders got to wear a bit more clothing—corsets—as they made batches of cherry cosmos for about 350 guests.
CEM and Show creative director Norman Gosney brought in an assortment of entertainers: the World Famous Pontani Sisters did burlesque numbers, Anna Jack worked a hula hoop, Grinder Girl and Grinder Boy (repped by Michael Bongar Entertainment) lit up the stage with their pyrotechnics, and rock band Candy Ass played a set after Arista's L.A. Reid led a presentation for Pink, celebrating her Grammy nominations and record sales. In between the acts, a magician and stiltwalkers worked the crowd, and a fortune teller made predictions upstairs. (No word on whether or not she foretold Pink's leaving the Grammys empty-handed).
