London, Dec 28 (IANS) Pop star Pink says she hates the smell and taste of cigarettes and that she desperately wants to get rid of her smoking habit.

Pink has already stopped smoking at home and now wants to limit the amount of cigarettes she puffs on when she is out with pals.

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

'I have definitely cut back on cigarettes a lot. I have started from home and soon will cut down among my friends circle as well,' she added.
