Pink will receive the coveted Icon Award at the 2021 Billboard Music Awards later this month, making her the youngest person selected for the honor.

The singer will be the 10th person to receive the award, with previous honorees including Janet Jackson, Prince, Garth Brooks, Celine Dion and Stevie Wonder, Billboard noted .

Pink called the recognition a true pinch me moment, in a statement to the publication, saying she felt humbled and blessed to receive the award.

As a little girl, I always dreamed about being a singer and sharing my love of music with the world, she said elsewhere in the statement.

Pink is also scheduled to perform at the event, which will air live from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on May 23 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
