Hugh Jackman brought out Pink and her daughter Willow, 14, as special guests during his From New York, with Love show on Sept. 20
The trio sang “A Million Dreams” from The Greatest Showman and Pink’s song “Who Knew”
The show marked Pink and Willow’s Radio City Music Hall debut
“Who Knew” Hugh Jackman had such great taste in special guests?
At the latest show part of his From New York, with Love concert series at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, the actor, 56, brought out another star, Pink, and a star-in-the-making — the singer’s 14-year-old daughter, Willow Sage Hart.
The mother-daughter duo took the stage with Jackman on Saturday, Sept. 20, to perform two special songs, including The Greatest Showman track “A Million Dreams,” originally sung by Michelle Williams, Ziv Zaifman and, of course, Jackman himself in the film.
The trio also combined their talents to put their spin on a classic Pink hit, “Who Knew.” Dressed in a red ballgown, Willow showed off her burgeoning vocals, taking the lead on the chorus of the latter song from her mom’s 2006 album I’m Not Dead.
The trio’s performance of the Greatest Showman ballad and the fan-favorite Pink tune earned high praise.
After Pink, 46, shared footage of the special moment on Instagram, vocal coach to the stars Eric Vetro commented, “❤️🎶❤️Now THAT’S a talented family! Willow, you really have your mom’s magical and powerful vocal cord genes!❤️🎶❤️.”
The teen also received some raucous encouragement from the crowd, other footage shared by her singer mom shows.

Ahead of the special appearance — which marked both the mother and daughter’s first time on the Radio City Music Hall stage, per Jackman — Willow was a bit nervous.
“Hi everybody, we’re on our way to Radio City to sing with Hugh Jackman,” Pink said from the car in a behind-the-scenes clip shared on Instagram.
As she asked her 14-year-old, “Are you nervous?” Willow replied from the backseat, “So scared.”
“You are?” Pink then asked, as the teen doubled down: “It’s Radio City!” Her mom later offered a quick word of encouragement, telling Willow, “Aw, you’re going to do so good.”
Alongside the video, Pink wrote, “What an unforgettable night.”
Jackman first teased that the singer — who he is a “massive fan” of — would be the special guest at his Sept. 20 show last month.
“I’ve had some amazing guests, but I’m super excited to tell you that on Saturday the 20th of September, I’m gonna have a very, very, very special guest. I’m going to be nerding out on stage, because I’m a massive fan,” the Deadpool & Wolverine actor said in an Aug. 29 Instagram video, before joking: “I think you might have heard of her: Pink is her name.”
From New York, With Love is coming to a close soon. The series, which kicked off in January, will have its final weekend with three shows on Friday, Oct. 3 and Saturday, Oct. 4.
