Cyndi Lauper Saves the Day With Her Voice at Buenos Aires' Airport

Have you wondered lately what the hell Cyndi Lauper has been up to lately? Well, aside from developing some lipstick shades with Lady Gaga, Cyndi is apparently all about serenading air travelers, as she performed two songs live on Friday at the Buenos Aires International Airport. Oh yes, and she's making award-winning Blues music too, but back to the airport singing...

According to the Daily Mail, Lauper was in BA on her world tour for her recent Blues album when flight delays turned the airport into a mess of worried and furious travelers. To diffuse the situation, the airport introduced Cyndi, and she began with her hit "Girl Just Wanna Have Fun," completely without accompaniment (unless count everyone else around her joining in on the refrain).

We have to agree with one of the above video's YouTube commenters when he gives her props for this performance, wondering "can you imagine any of the current autotuned wannabees performing a capella, no backup, no engineering, over a bad mic with awful acoustics?" Exactly. Cyndi's still got it, and we'd be tempted to brand her the "airport whisperer" if the whole thing wasn't about her singing at the top of her lungs. Good job all around.
