Hugh Jackman treated audiences to an evening to never forget at his NYC Concert, when he invited global pop sensation Pink and her 14-year-old daughter Willow Sage Hart onto the stage. The special guest
appearance was on Saturday, 20 September, at New York’s legendary Radio City Music Hall.
The group sang two of their most memorable tunes, such as A Million Dreams from the hit musical The Greatest Showman and Pink’s 2006 single Who Knew. The 56-year-old actor welcomed his guests to thunderous applause, creating one of the showstoppers of his touring run.

Willow’s Nerves Before the Big Stage
Before making their Radio City debut, Pink and Willow had a pre-show moment while sitting in their car together.

In spite of her nervousness, Willow gave a confident performance that dazzled both fans and industry professionals, making her stage debut at one of the world’s most iconic venues.
