Legendary and iconic singer-songwriter Cyndi Lauper offers a poignant account of the journey that led her to become an international superstar - from her years growing up in Queens,New York,to the making of enduring hits like 'Time After Time', 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun',and 'True Colors',to becoming an actress,a mother,an outspoken activist,and maintaining a music career that has lasted more than thirty years. After leaving her childhood home at seventeen,Cyndi took on a series of jobs: racetrack hot walker,IHOP waitress,and,as she puts it,'gal Friday the thirteenth',as she pursued her passion for music.She worked her way up playing small gigs and broke out in 1983 with 'She's So Unusual', which earned her a Grammy for Best New Artist and made her the first female artist in history to have four top-five singles on a debut album.And while global fame wasn't always what she expected,she has remained focused on what matters most. Cyndi is a gutsy real-life heroine who has never been afraid to speak her mind and stick up for a cause - whether it's women's rights,gay rights,or fighting against HIV/AIDS. With her trademark warmth and humour, Cyndi fearlessly writes of a life she's lived only on her own terms. Cyndi Lauper has won a Grammy,two American Music Awards,an Emmy,and three MTV Video Music Awards,and has been nominated for many more.She has sold more than thirty million albums globally and continues to tour around the world (then 2012).An unwavering advocate for lesbian,gay, bisexual,and transgender (LGBT) equality, Cyndi created the 'True Colors' tour in 2007 and founded the True Colors Fund in 2008.She has her own website CyndiLauper.com.
