Want to catch the 80s legend live? There’s no Time After Time like the present!
It’s impossible to think of the fun and freedom of ’80s pop music without Cyndi Lauper coming to mind. Known for her big hair, bright clothes and catchy bops, this pop icon has remained strong throughout the decades, and in 2025 she’ll be commencing her farewell tour.
The American pop singer, now 71 years old, first burst onto the scene with her 1985 debut album She’s So Unusual, which was the first by a female artist to have four top five hits on the Billboard 100. It even earned her a Grammy and a firmly-held spot on Rolling Stone’s Top 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
1985 was a big year for the pop princess, as she also released True Colours, best known for its title track.
Another fact about Cyndi Lauper is that she is the brains behind the 2012 Broadway musical Kinky Boots, which scooped some major wins at the Tony and Grammy Awards.
Cyndi’s career spans over four decades during which she’s sold over 50 million records; however, one of the things she’s most passionate about is the LGBTQ+ community. In 2008 Lauper founded True Colors United, which works with homelessness in the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC communities.
