It IS a Woman's World After All

Cyndi Lauper will (again) open for Cher during her upcoming "Dressed to Kill" tour.  You may remember that Cyndi opened on Cher's "Farewell" tour a few years back.  Well at 67(!), Cher is not content to stay out of the limelight and judging buy her ticket sales, her fans are more than eager for her to return!

Bringing Cyndi back is icing and rainbow sprinkles on an already super sweet event.  In her 50+ year career, Cher has literally been there, done that and has earned a level of success and fan base not many achieve. She's had ups and downs, (perhaps more downs than ups), but has survived decades of changing sounds and styles. 

After more than 30 years, Cyndi Lauper has followed in Cher's footsteps, (size 8: do you believe there's an actual website for this stuff??), carving out her own space and building a following that consistently flocks to see her live shows.  In 2013 she became the 1st woman to win a Tony award for scoring the musical, "Kinky Boots," and hit the road to celebrate 30 years of 'FUN!'

Warming up thousands of Cher fans can't be left to just anybody!  And if this wasn't good news for all the girls and boys who wanna have fun with these two, Cher also announced that Pat Benatar is also stepping in on selected dates!  Wow!  This is a combination I'd love to see.  Cher is certainly showing us that it's no longer just a man's world ;)

I have my ticket for the Washington, D.C. show; how about you?
