Starting her career as a singer in Manhattan's clubs, Cyndi Lauper began writing her own material when she met pianist John Turi in 1977. They formed Blue Angel and released a self-titled album in 1980, which included raucous versions of rock classics as well as their own numbers.

She split with Turi and in 1983 began working on what was to become her multi-million-selling solo debut, "She's So Unusual." It made number 4 in the USA and provided four hit singles – the exuberant "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" (US/UK number 2), which became a cult anthem for independent young women; "Time After Time" (US number 1/UK number 3, later covered by Miles Davis on "You're Under Arrest" and by the jazz duo Tuck And Patti), "She Bop" (US number 3, which broached the unusual subject of female masturbation) and "All Through The Night" (US number 4, written by Jules Shear). The album also featured Prince's "When You Were Mine."

At the end of 1984, Billboard magazine placed Cyndi Lauper first in the Top Female Album Artists and she was awarded a Grammy as Best New Artist. Her image was one that adapted for the American market, something of a colorful "punk" image that would not offend parents too much but at the same time retain a sense of humor and rebelliousness that would appeal to the youth.

Pundits in the UK claimed to have seen through this straight away, yet they acknowledged Lauper's talent nonetheless. "True Colors" did not have the same commercial edge as its predecessor, yet the title track still provided her with an US number 1 and a Top 20 hit in the UK. The follow-up, "Change Of Heart" (written by Essra Mohawk and featuring The Bangles), reached US number 3 in November 1986.

In 1988, Cyndi Lauper took a role as a beautician in the film, "Vibes." She made a brief return to the charts in 1990 with the US/UK Top 10 single "I Drove All Night" from "A Night To Remember." Another film appearance in "Off And Running" was not seen in the UK until two years later.

Cyndi Lauper has written several magnificent pop tunes ("Time After Time" is destined to become a classic) and, in 1985, boosted her credibility as a singer when she performed a stirring duet with Patti LaBelle at LaBelle's show at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles.

(i.e., what is CYNDI LAUPER booking fee to perform at an event?)

Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.

As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when becoming less popular.

Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime. Generally, the artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
