Entertainment News: Singer Pink has asked family and friends to "ration" cigarettes to her so that she can cut her smoking habit.

The 30-year-old star has quit puffing at home and now wants to smoke less even when she is with friends.

"Smoking isn't cute at all... It's awful. I hate the smell, the taste. I hate everything about it. I'm an asthmatic singing smoker! But, for some reason, I look at it as the last remaining bit of me," Contactmusic quoted Pink, as saying.

She added: "I've definitely cut way back. At night, when I'm out drinking my wine, I'll have cigarettes rationed to me. But I don't smoke at home."
