Cyndi Lauper on Why 'Now Is the Time' for Her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour (Exclusive)

Cyndi Lauper's Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour will kick off in the fall. It's her first major tour since 2013.

On Tuesday, ET's Denny Directo spoke with the 70-year-old singer from the Los Angeles premiere of Let the Canary Sing-- the documentary exploring her rise to fame and her prolific career -- and she provided a scoop on her recently announced Girls Just Want to Have Fun Tour, a 23-city adventure that begins later this year. Between getting older and the fact that she hasn't had the opportunity to perform in arenas in four decades, Lauper, who launched her career in 1983, says that now feels like the perfect time to tour.
