Cyndi Lauper
I have a wig for when I go outside among the regular folks, so they don't feel uncomfortable because I have a Day-Glo color somewhere in my hair.
Cyndi Lauper
When I sing I have a lot of visions. Like what's happening now in my life.
Cyndi Lauper
What, do you think that feminism means you hate men?
