In January 2024, Cyndi Lauper was photographed with her husband, David Thornton, at WeHo’s San Vicente Bungalows. There were still hints of her peppy punk pizzazz, such as her white cat-eye glasses and colorful coat featuring an embroidered T-rex wearing a crown. However, she didn’t appear to have much makeup on and was sporting a tousled pixie that was dyed an icy blue hue. The “True Colors” singer once revealed that she associates the color with that old “blue hair old ladies” trope, telling Allure, “I wanted to change it to blue because I felt like hey, it’s the right age, aren’t I supposed to have blue hair?” At the time, she was 64.
While Lauper might look a bit different these days, her complexion is remarkably smooth. When The New York Times Magazine asked her if she was willing to experiment with cosmetic procedures in 2006, she stated, “If it gets to the point where I have to have Scotch tape on my eyelids to hold them up, I will definitely try to do something. I don’t really want to go over the cliff.” But that same year, Lauper decided to have a tummy tuck. In a 2011 appearance on “The Wendy Williams Show,” she explained why she later regretted it. “The surgeon was a diva,” she recalled (via the Daily Star). “She left and some student sewed me up. It’s not good.”
