The singer was nominated for her Beautiful Trauma album, but lost out on the night to Ariana Grande, who won the accolade for her fourth studio album Sweetener.
However, the singer – whose real name is Alecia Beth Moore – didn’t go home completely empty handed after her two children fashioned a homemade Grammy out of tin foil.
Sharing a photo of her seven-year-old daughter Willow on Instagram, Pink wrote: “Thanks kids, my favourite kind of award.”
Written on the front of the creation is: “Best Pop Vocal Album, 2019 Grammy Awards, Pink, Beautiful Trauma”.
The post also included a second picture of the star’s two-year-old Jameson looking somewhat confused while holding the homemade Grammy.
This isn’t the first time the 39-year-old has received a tin foil award though.
During a recent appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Pink revealed she actually gets given one every year.
"And so, this will be my 17th tin foil Grammy on Sunday,” she told the talk show host last week.
The tradition was started by her husband years ago but has since been taken over by her children.
The singer also posted about her Grammy loss on Twitter, admitting she didn't have any bad feelings about it.
“I think it's kind of rad that I just lost my 20th Grammy nomination,” she said.
“I'm always honoured to be included. Now to get this sick baby in the bathtub.
“Congrats to all the nominees! Have fun tonight."
