Cyndi Lauper Still Fighting (VIDEO)

Cyndi Lauper can’t quit supporting trending social causes with tribute songs. Lauper reworked her Girls Just Want to Have Fun hit to Girls Just Want To Have Funds, in support of gender pay equality. Lauper comes from a pop music industry where women dominate the ranks of the top paid. She’s made herself a cool thirty million off of two hit songs in the 80’s. But nobody wants to hear you riff on back taxes on foreign royalties. 

I come home, in the morning light my mother says ‘why don’t you make the same as a guy/Oh mama, dear, we’re not the fortunate ones/’cause girls, they want equal funds.

The sentiment seems well-intentioned. Though it’s clear you didn’t put much effort into the parody lyrics. Ask yourself if you deserve Weird Al money.

One day a woman who makes south of seven figures will be the standard bearer for the gender pay gap. They don’t use Paris Hilton to front pro-choice campaigns. Think urban minority abandoned by her boyfriend. When you don’t have science you must have hearts.
