Pink issued a "F--kin' Perfect" response to body-shaming bullies.

The singer-songwriter, 35, and her husband, BMX rider Carey Hart, 39, posed for pictures on the red carpet at the John Wayne 30th Annual Odyssey Ball at Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel Saturday. Pink wore a black dress that featured a plunging neckline, but sadly, not everyone liked the pop star's look.

"I can see that some of you are concerned about me from your comments about my weight," the "Get This Party Started" singer tweeted Sunday. "You're referring to the pictures of me from last night's cancer benefit that I attended to support my dear friend Dr. Maggie DiNome. She was given the Duke Award for her tireless efforts and stellar contributions to the eradication of cancer. But unfortunately, my weight seems much more important to some of you. While I admit that the dress didn't photograph as well as it did in my kitchen, I will also admit that I felt very pretty. In fact, I feel beautiful."

"So, my good and concerned peoples, please don't worry about me. I'm not worried about me. And I'm not worried about you either," Pink continued. "I am perfectly fine, perfectly happy, and my healthy, voluptuous and crazy strong body is having some much deserved time off. Thanks for your concern."

Pink tweeted a picture with her 2-year-old daughter, taken just before the event. "Willow said to me the other day whilst grabbing my belly-'mama-why r u so squishy?' And I said..'b/cuz I'm happy baby,'" she wrote. The musician also tweeted a picture from the event with Hart, telling fans, "and my hubby says 'it's just more to love baby' (and then I smack his hand off my booty cause we're in a supermarket)."

The three-time Grammy Award winner, who has sold over 40 million albums worldwide, spent the rest of the afternoon retweeting and responding to messages that promoted body positivity:
