Names and faces

• The singer Pink tested positive for covid-19, she said Friday, also announcing that she is donating $500,000 each to two emergency funds. In a pair of tweets, she said she and her 3-year-old son were displaying symptoms two weeks ago, and she tested positive after accessing tests through a primary care physician. Her family had already been sheltering at home and continued to do so, she said.

They were tested again “just a few days ago,” and were negative. The Grammy Award-winning artist behind eight studio albums and hits including “Get the Party Started,” “What About Us,” “Raise Your Glass” and “Just Give Me a Reason” called for free, widespread testing. “It is an absolute travesty and failure of our government to not make testing more widely accessible,” she wrote. “This illness is serious and real. People need to know that the illness affects the young and old, healthy and unhealthy, rich and poor, and we must make testing free and more widely accessible to protect our children, our families, our friends and our communities.” She announced she’s donating $1 million across two coronavirus-related relief funds — the Temple University Hospital Fund in Philadelphia and the covid-19 response fund run by the Mayor’s Fund for Los Angeles. She called health care workers “heroes” and ended her post with an appeal to the public. “These next two weeks are crucial: please stay home,” she wrote. “Please. Stay. Home.”

• Selena Gomez opened up about being diagnosed with bipolar disorder during a social media chat with Miley Cyrus. Gomez spoke about her diagnosis during a 20-minute conversation Friday on Cyrus’ “Bright Minded” series on Instagram. The singer says she “realized that I was bipolar” after she recently visited a mental hospital. The 27-year-old Gomez said understanding her disorder better “took

the fear away.” “And so when I got to know more information, it actually helps me,” she said. “It doesn’t scare me once I know it.” Gomez revealed in 2017 that she underwent a kidney transplant because of her struggle with lupus. She said at the time the transplant was needed for her “overall health.” In her discussion with Cyrus, Gomez said she has witnessed mental health issues within her family. “I’ve seen some of it even in my own family, where I’m like, ‘What’s going on?’ I’m from Texas. It’s just not known to talk about mental health,” she said. “You got to seem cool. And then I see anger built up in children and teenagers or whatever, young adults, because they are wanting that so badly. I just feel like when I finally said what I was going to say, I wanted to know everything about it. And it took the fear away.” Pink
