Pink and Selma Blair are two powerhouse celebrities who have built a strong friendship over the past decade. While they come from different backgrounds in the entertainment industry, they found common ground in motherhood that helped forge a deep bond of support. Through the highs and lows of their lives, they have been there for each other. Let’s take a closer look at their friendship and what it reveals about the power of empathy, compassion, and loyalty between women.
Shared Experiences of Motherhood
Pink and Selma Blair both became mothers around 2011. Pink has a son named Jameson Moon Hart who is now 10 years old, while Selma has a son named Arthur Saint Bleick who is 9. Welcoming their first children into the world at similar times helped lay the foundation for their friendship to blossom.
As working mothers in Hollywood, they could relate to the challenges and joys of raising kids while also pursuing demanding careers in the spotlight. The responsibilities and lifestyle changes that come with parenthood are experiences they deeply understood in one another.
Over the past decade, Pink and Selma have been spotted attending various kid-friendly events together with their sons in tow. From birthday parties to outdoor activities to children’s concerts, they’ve supported each other’s parenting journeys. Having a friend who is going through the same milestones helps make it feel less isolating.
Their children have also become close friends through spending time together. Pink has described her son as being “best friends” with Selma’s son Arthur [Elle Magazine]. Seeing their kids bond likely brought Pink and Selma even closer on a personal level. Going through the highs and lows of parenthood side by side created an unbreakable bond between them.
Support Through Difficult Times
In addition to sharing the joys of motherhood together, Pink and Selma have also supported each other through some difficult health battles. In 2018, Selma was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system.
In interviews after her diagnosis, Selma has repeatedly cited Pink as a source of inspiration and strength during this challenging time. She told People Magazine that Pink helped her realize “life is for living” despite MS. In another interview with The Times, Selma called Pink her “miracle human being” for helping her maintain a positive outlook.
Pink has shown her devotion to Selma by visiting her in the hospital after treatments. She’s also advocated for MS research funding and inclusion. Their friendship demonstrates the importance of empathy, hope and compassion during times of illness or disability.
Activities That Bring Them Closer
Beyond attending kid-friendly events together, Pink and Selma have participated in deeper bonding experiences as well. Pink is known to host fun gatherings at her home that bring their extended friend group together. This includes annual camping trips where they disconnect from technology and bond around the campfire [IBTimes].
Selma has mentioned attending “moon circles” with Pink, which suggests a more intimate setting for open-hearted conversation [IBTimes]. These types of activities allow their friendship to flourish on emotional and spiritual levels beyond surface-level interactions. The trust and vulnerability cultivated in those settings has likely strengthened their loyalty to one another.
Pink also brought Selma as her date to the 2009 Grammy Awards, showing early signs that their friendship had become an important part of each other’s lives. Attending high-profile events together demonstrates their comfort in each other’s company on big nights. Their friendship has evolved from casual acquaintances to true confidantes over the years.
A Decade of Mutual Support
It’s been over a decade since Pink and Selma Blair’s friendship first began to blossom in the early 2010s. In that time, they’ve supported each other through the triumphs and challenges of parenthood, health issues, career ups and downs, and more. Their bond shows the profound impact that empathy, compassion, shared experiences and loyalty can have between women.
While their lives may look very different on the surface as celebrities in Hollywood, Pink and Selma found deep connection in their roles as mothers.
