Why Cyndi Lauper Is Ready for FAREWELL Tour Now: ‘I’m Strong’ (Exclusive)

“Extra” speaks to Cyndi Lauper as she premieres her deeply personal new documentary “Let the Canary Sing.” She opens up about why it was the right time to tell her story and always marching to the beat of her own drum, which the doc highlights. Cyndi also speaks about her friend Cher helping her cement her place in Hollywood history with a TCL Chinese Theater hand and footprint ceremony. Plus, Cyndi dishes on planning her final farewell tour kicking off in the fall. “Let the Canary Sing” is streaming on Paramount+.

Cyndi, with her music, helped me get through some difficult times in my life. And for that I am forever thankful.

[@detoxmuscle]

Thank God for Cyndy Lauper. ❤️

[@kokoko79]

She's so professional-she wants to give great shows with great live singing . Also she's so realistic, anything can happen suddenly after certain age and singing live two hours is like running a marathon. I can't wait to see her in concert!

[@alexbia5689]

Shes so talented love this women and she looks amazing just got my tickets to MSG Nyc this fall.

[@guillaumefombeur9591]

You can see by her looks ,her beauty that she loves what she does and love also the love she gets from her audience.

[@dosesandmimoses]

Ms. Lauper.. you are fabulous.. you have not aged a bit.

[@Sinfulscents]

I know!!! She’s even prettier now!❤

[@KelticKabukiGirl]

@@Sinfulscents I dunno, I would still Marry her at 71, but her at 30 with her Debut in 83???? wheeew! I would KILL to look like that!

[@Planetcharr]

Hopefully all this will awaken the eyes at MTV and give her that damn Vanguard Award that is severely over due ... and any other music award shows still going...recognize her for the trailblazing Icon that she is.

[@KelticKabukiGirl]

is MTV even still a thing??

[@KelticKabukiGirl]

I mean I had friends hanging out on Headbanger's Ball with the Abbot brothers just before Dimebag was shot, but that was 20 years ago..... I seriously don't know what MTV even is now, But Cyndi will live on an Icon

[@divatalk9011]

Cyndi is a benchmark by which excellence is judged

[@jhonrodrigues8598]

Love u Queen ❤❤❤

[@user-ed2et3er1g]

You will always look fabulous my Queen love you Cyndi 🙏😉

[@charliepickard7798]

I was never a huge Cyndi fan when she first came out, I was more hard rock, but I freaking love her with the dulcimer. She is so sweet and talented. I love her quote "Get in line." Pure Cyndi

[@divatalk9011]

I wish there was more new music from her solo career. I understand why she stopped making new solo music because the label didn’t support her enough, but honestly it’s sad we never got another new originals album after 2008

Madonna did her farewell tour, now time for Cyndi 🙏🏻 They debuted around the same time, had great careers, they earned their retirement, true icons 💖💕💕💕

[@christosandreou3986]

Madonna never mentioned it was her farewell tour. It was a Greatest Hits tour. Expect her to make more tours. She is not the person to withdraw.

[@norijean3279]

@@christosandreou3986 But she barely danced, and she actually almost died during the rehearsals and postponed the show. I believe it was her last stadium tour. She barely made it at 65, you expect her to do it at 70?? Maybe a residency, and that's it. I just hope she lives and puts out a few more records 🙏🏻

[@christosandreou3986]

@@norijean3279 Hahaha Madonna is a pioneer and has a highest high stamina. Of course she will have another stadium tour. They kept saying she had health issues even as back as re-invention tour. But since then she carried out 5 full scaled stadium tours and a small venue one. She will carry out more stadium tours and she is one who will announce when it will be her final curtain call which I do not see happening before 70.

[@soapwonder2284]

Madonna did not do a farewell tour! She did a Celebration tour of 4 decades of her career! There is no way Madonna is going to retire plus Madonna is way younger than Cindy! 😂

[@matthewrettenmund8358]

@@norijean3279 You're out of your mind - "barely made it"? She was fantastic and powered through very well. Her illness had zero to do with her show. You didn't even see it, that's obvious.

'Farewell tour' kinda lost it's meaning when KISS did at least 6 of them ;)

what about Cher? 😝

[@arthurwatts1680]

@@mattjastrzeb1724 I fear the real Cher is in a pod somewhere and what we have is an Android who will keep performing while she still has fans ;)

She's SMack in the middle of Boomer, but GenX claims her!!! The Neon Hippies like my mom, only 6 months older, not Yuppies, just changed with the times and music Hippies and Punks -POst Punk....Hence New Wave... I heard her music and as a kid it awoke something in me I didn't know I had. ....and My (unplanned!) Tranniversarry and Birthday are the same day!!!
