Pink wants five kids and animals within decade

Pink wants to have five kids, 18 dogs, a horse and a pig within 10 years.

The 'So What' hitmaker - who has 18-month-old daughter Willow with husband Carey Hart - is desperate to extend her family to include a "basketball team" of children, as well as plenty of animals, because she thinks becoming a mother is the "best thing" she has ever done.

She said: "I want a basketball team. It's the best thing I've done. In 10 years I'll have an 11-year-old and an eight-year-old and a five-year-old and a three-year-old and a six-month-old and 18 dogs, a horse and a pig."

But Pink nearly didn't even get to tie the knot with motocross racer Carey as on the day she met him at the 2001 X Games, an extreme sports event, he had a terrible crash and the 33-year-old star - whose real name is Alecia Moore - thought he was dead.

She explained: "He fell 40ft and broke 14 bones the day I met him. I thought he was dead. I was like, 'Wow, he was cute, he would have made a good baby daddy.' Then I ran into him a couple of months later and the rest..."

Pink proposed to Carey in 2005 by holding up a card saying, "Will you marry me?", during one of his races which led to him pulling out of the event to pick her up - and she insists the 37-year-old rider will "always" be her "love" no matter what occurs in the future.

She added to Stella magazine: "Regardless of whatever happens, he'll always be my love."
