As the audiences got larger, the participation got larger. And I found myself in Dallas, and 20,000 people were singing 'Madonna Whore' back at me. I thought ... this is really a great thing. They wanted to hear it really badly, and here they are. |
God has more important things to worry about than who I sleep with. |
Hey, I read comics! |
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? |

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. |

My partner and I, we were talking about Christmas. And it's a holiday of the heart, and you know, like we listened to 'Silent Night' and 'In the Bleak Midwinter,' and that to me was like a lullaby, ... And after all, this holiday's about a baby. So I wanted to put a human face on this, and I said, 'Well, what would you say if you were singing to your baby, telling your baby about Christmas? What would you say?' And so I came up with this song. |
OK, let's really talk about Jenny. People who can fight, can --. |
People used to complain to me all the time, 'I can't even hear you sing because your clothes are so loud.' |
Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing. |
Sometimes my mind boggles. It's so deep my mind actually boggles. |
