Everyone—whether straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender—should be allowed to show their true colors, and be accepted and loved for who they are.
You know, I've been playing with my hair color ever since I was nine.
I have a wig for when I go outside among the regular folks, so they don't feel uncomfortable because I have a Day-Glo color somewhere in my hair.
On my darkest days, I wear my brightest colors.
And I'll see your true colors shining through I see your true colors and that's why I love you so don't be afraid to let them show your true colors, true colors are beautiful like a RAINBOW...
I used to get spanked. Yeah, my mother used to line us up and we'd get it with the belt. I think she was into music, cause we were all different sizes like a xylophone. But I've been through therapy, I'm OK now.
I am also an Emmy winning actress. Except that I gotta tell ya, it was for comedy and I've been practicing for most of my life because every job I've ever had they'd always say the same thing, 'Hey Lauper, what are ya, some kind of comedienne?' and who knew?
OK, let's really talk about Jenny. People who can fight, can --.
Yes. It's all his fault. I was nice, very pure, never did anything wrong, and then he started in and started corrupting me.
I don't know many people who don't have somebody in their family who's a part of the gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgender community. It's not like they're aliens or outsiders. This is family.
When I sing I have a lot of visions. Like what's happening now in my life.
With fame, I'm able to create more. With every success, you have more freedom to create.
People used to complain to me all the time, 'I can't even hear you sing because your clothes are so loud.
Where I come from, if you see your family and friends' civil rights being taken away, you speak up and do everything you can to keep that from happening!
