Fame doesn't redeem you. It takes a long time to get there, and when you're finally there, you realise you still have authority figures telling you what to do.

More quotes by Cyndi Lauper
You can't make your kids what you want them to be. They are who they are and you have to help them to succeed in the world as best you can.
Cyndi Lauper
There have been great things that happened to me.
Cyndi Lauper
I don't know many people who don't have somebody in their family who's a part of the gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgender community. It's not like they're aliens or outsiders. This is family.
Cyndi Lauper
I absolutely refuse to reveal my age. What am I - a car?
Cyndi Lauper
Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing.
Cyndi Lauper
I lucked out when I started to sing. I'd already experienced failing at everything else.
Cyndi Lauper
If you saw me without makeup, you wouldn't recognize me.
Cyndi Lauper
There's ageism in everything. I don't give a hoot. It isn't what other people think it's what you think. But it's hard to come to terms with getting older. I admire people like Vivienne Westwood.
Cyndi Lauper
I wouldn't record any song that I didn't like.
Cyndi Lauper
If you fall, I will catch you. I will be waiting, time after time.
Cyndi Lauper
Everyone's gotta have a voice, to be able to speak out. Left supresses right, right supresses left, and what's left and what's right? You know? It's America. You gotta be able to speak out. That's why people came here from all over the world: to have a fair shake. Not more than somebody else - the same.
Cyndi Lauper
My career never went like anyone else’s, so I never followed anyone.
Cyndi Lauper
I knew Queen Elizabeth didn't do any laundry! I knew I wasn't going to be doing laundry. I was going to be singing.
Cyndi Lauper
I have a hard time doing anything someone else tells me to do! I've always been driven to follow my own path and not be pushed down another lane because some executive thought I could be more commercially successful or whatever.
Cyndi Lauper
Sharon Osbourne is such a blast and she's so, so bright.
Cyndi Lauper
Men and women are different. I don't think men grow a brain until 26 or even 30. Girls mature a lot quicker.
Cyndi Lauper
I get the greatest feeling when I'm singing. It's other-worldly. Your feet are anchored into the Earth and into this energy force that comes up through your feet and goes up the top of your head and maybe you're holding hands with the angels or the stars, I have no idea.
Cyndi Lauper
You know, I've been playing with my hair color ever since I was nine.
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?
