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.
