India.Arie's 'Hair' Regrows With Pink
October 06, 2006, 10:25 AM ET

A previously unreleased version of India.Arie's "I Am Not My Hair" 
will be heard in a new Lifetime Television movie, "Why I Wore 
Lipstick to My Mastectomy." Arie tells Billboard this version -- a 
duet between the R&B/soul singer and pop-rocker Pink -- is actually 
the original version of the song. It will be available on iTunes 
beginning Oct. 23.

"We both had something to say with this song, and we wanted to work 
together," Arie explains. "This duet should have been the original 
version on my album ['Testimony: Vol. I, Life & Relationship'], but 
it fell through the cracks."

When Lifetime inquired about using the song for the film, Arie 
said, "Well, I have this other version that you might like to use."

According to Arie, while the song's original idea was rooted in 
Pink's decision to do away with her pink locks, the last verse was 
written after watching Melissa Etheridge's triumphant performance on 
the Grammy Awards, where she appeared bald from chemotherapy to 
treat breast cancer. "Her performance brought tears to my eyes," 
Arie says. "At that moment in time, her performance was a 
juxtaposition of pain and beauty. It symbolized the beauty of 
strength."

The Lifetime movie, premiering Oct. 23, stars Sarah Chalke 
("Scrubs") and, in a cameo role, Patti LaBelle.

As for Arie, she is in the mist of an October tour that visits 
Bermuda tonight (Oct. 6) and runs through Oct. 28 in Anaheim, Calif.
