Concert Review | Cher & Cyndi Lauper: Singers Know All About Having Fun

Cher and Cyndi Lauper, two iconic singers dazzled an audience filled Nationwide Arena last night at a concert that was as musically impressive show.


Cher, 67, made an impressive entrance. The curtain fell, and there she was, standing atop a 20-foot pole, looking like a cross between an Egyptian queen and a Vegas showgirl as she sang World Women and Strong Enough.

"This is my farewell farewell tour, I'm not kidding, and “she said with a nod and crossed fingers. "I'm too old for this. "

For this tour, Cher said, “I’m going out; singing in fabulous outfits and is fabulous.”



And that's just what he did , wearing 11 different outfits , including a mind -blowing , earth moving Indian headdress feather pink , blue and orange for Half Breed . Also emerged as a Trojan horse for a blond warrior Take it as a man ; you appeared in , empanadas thing heart shaped silver fringed platinum / pink hair to believe ; and wore a tux linda- creation and Welcome to Burlesque.

But a concert is more than fashion. Distinctive contralto voice of Cher was stronger than ever in most of the songs , especially when you have not seen the last of me; I Found Someone ; If I could turn back time ; Just like Jesse James , and a cover of Marc Cohn Walking in Memphis.

A highlight came when Cher sang, apparently late ex-husband Sonny Bono, the I Got You Babe and videos of him is. "I've thought about doing this a long time ago, but never could," Cher said. “But since this is the last tour ... He was such a ham. He would love this. "



Cher concluded his concert in a dress, halo and blonde braids while hovering over the crowd to sing I hope you are.

Cyndi Lauper gave a great performance of 60 minutes to open the night. Lauper wore a hooded robe and walked through the crowd like a boxer who comes to the ring while singing She Bop. She took it to reveal a black leather get- up, combat boots and long flaming red hair as I kiss you sang.

While singing the reggae -flavored Witness, Lauper, 60, was spinning around like 1984 again. This was repeated in the songs and dances the night life and sex is in the heel, this latest song from his Broadway show Kinky Boots. She also cried Changes Money.

All as if his luck had changed suddenly.



There was a bit of art on All Through the Night, with Lauper illuminating his face with a light stick, holding a mirror ball in front of his face and holding long, beautiful notes. There was also some humor in Girls just wanna have fun.

Then there were the glittering ballads and again, the hat full of stars and true colors. On the latter, Lauper cried at the end: “Do not be afraid that you will for everyone ".
