À propos de cet audio
Cyndi Lauper has been everywhere these past few days, her farewell tour lighting up headlines, ticket sellers, and morning talk shows alike. At 72, the pop music icon is deep into the final stretch of her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour, with the last leg launching July 17 in Massachusetts and scheduled to conclude August 30 at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum. Public anticipation is at a fever pitch, with upcoming shows at Northwell at Jones Beach Theater in New York on July 19, and Blossom Music Center near Cleveland July 30, just two of over two dozen North American dates left. According to Ticketmaster and the Bristow Amphitheater, ticket sales remain brisk, and fans old and new are clamoring for a final chance to see her belt out classics like Time After Time and True Colors.
But if you thought Cyndi was about to retire quietly, think again. She told AARP this week that she’s got zero plans to stop working—she’s just done “schlepping the luggage.” Instead, she’s focusing on what she loves most: new creative ventures, including co-writing the musical adaptation of the film Working Girl, which premieres November 9 at La Jolla Playhouse in California, and celebrating her induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame class of 2025 on November 8.
Major media appearances have kept her firmly in the public eye. On July 8, Lauper appeared on Good Morning America to talk about her tour and reflect on her storied career. ABC News shared highlights as she discussed the emotional challenge of her last tour and how she’s managing aging as a performer, even admitting to Woman’s World that she suffered her very first panic attack before the tour’s kickoff but calmed herself with breathing meditation. She remains candid about physical changes, saying she keeps fit with yoga, weights, and daily movement. Lauper credits her late mother’s advice for her resilience: “All women must have endurance and strength. You must push through challenges and get to the other side.”
On the business front, Finance Monthly and Urban Splatter detail her thriving $35–50 million net worth, built on royalties, Broadway credits—including the Tony-winning Kinky Boots—and selective brand deals. She’s also a co-founder of True Colors United, which fights LGBTQ+ youth homelessness, and she’s inked recent artist partnership deals, per New Industry Focus.
Social media has been buzzing with fan tributes, nostalgia, and behind-the-scenes peeks at the tour, but there are no credible rumors of retirement. Cyndi stresses she’ll still be active—just not on big arena tours. And in her own words, she’s ending this chapter “not celebrating who I was, but who I am now and who we all are now.”
