Cyndi Lauper means a lot to me. She was my daughter's FAVORITE singer, especially the "Girls just want to have fun song." My daughter was 10 yrs old at the time. Sadly my daughter passed away suddenly of a heart attack at the age of 33yrs. When I hear Cyndi Lauper sing, I close my eyes and remember the fun-fun times that I had watching my daughter dance around and pretend to sing like Cyndi. thank you Jimmy Kimmel for having Cyndi on your show this evening, enjoyed it very much.

I played Girls Just Wanna Have Fun to my 8-year old daughter last year. It's now her favorite song. She loves the video. We sing it out loud every time we're in the car!

I didn’t realize it until halfway through the interview that I was smiling. I love interviews that make me smile. Cyndi was and still is so uplifting. She is the true essence of fun. 🎉

Cyndi rocked the Johnny Carson show in her early days. A true stand out and unique star! It's good to see her doing well.

What a legend!!!! her music, her presence, her energy, everything is top level. And how come she looks the same if not better? ❤

Cyndi Lauper is my favourite part of "We Are the World." She has such a brilliant catalog and deserves all the love in the world. "True Colors, " "My First Night Without You, " and "Who Let in the Rain" are three songs worth your time! Go, Cyndi! ❤

“Time After Time “ never gets old. One of the most beautiful pop songs of all time.

I went to Cher's farewell tour years ago and Cyndi opened the show. She came right into the audience up a side aisle where I was sitting. I still remember that moment!

I love Cyndi. Her songs always make me feel happy

[dearmaria]

Her mindset is everything. When you live like you're not bound by anyone's expectations, just being kind and real, it sets the tone for everything. She's really cool. I love it.

[tonyfox]

Cyndi’s vocal part in We Are The World is certainly the highlight of the song!

Nearly 71 years old. She's still *beautiful* 😍
