Cyndi Lauper was immortalized in concrete at a ceremony Tuesday morning at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, just two days after she was honored as West Hollywood’s Lifetime Ally Icon during the WeHo Pride Parade.
Cher made a surprise appearance at the event to introduce Lauper, her friend and collaborator, joining Bebe Rexha in honoring the singer for her 40+ year career. (Rexha was also in WeHo over the weekend, performing with Diplo.)
The ceremony was held in conjunction with the premiere of “Let the Canary Sing,” a documentary about Lauper’s life and road to stardom, available for streaming today on Paramount+.
Last week, Lauper announced her upcoming farewell tour with 23 dates throughout North America, including a November 23 performance at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles. Tickets go on sale Friday at livenation.com.
Farewell tour? We’ve heard this before from other artists.
Did they have to have a seance to bring these two to Hollywood?
