Cyndi Lauper Plans Gay Rights Concerts

Cyndi Lauper may still just want to have fun … but now she’s partying for a cause. Beginning in June, the quirky pop princess and longtime gay rights supporter will hit the road for the 15-date ‘True Colors’ concert tour, which will raise awareness about civil rights issues facing gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities. The concerts will be five-hour events that will also feature Rufus Wainwright, Erasure, the Indigo Girls, Debbie Harry, Rosie O’Donnell and host Margaret Cho on stage. “This tour was created to celebrate our differences by raising awareness for liberty, fairness and dignity for everyone — not just some of us,” said Lauper, whose sister is gay. “Our fans can come out to celebrate a great cause while also hearing some great music.” One dollar of every ticket sold will be donated to the Human Rights Campaign.
