Cyndi Lauper was seen looking as eccentric as ever as she sported a multicolored suit and a bright purple mohawk during a performance at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia, this week. The 69-year-old is showing no signs of slowing down and is currently on tour with legendary rock musician Rod Stewart, 78. Lauper - who was wearing purple lipstick and eyeshadow to match her hair - seemed to be having a ball as she belted out some of her biggest hits on stage.

She also began writhing about on the floor during her energetic performance.

One person wrote: "Not your typical 'old lady' with mauve hair. She has always been and will continue to be a ray of sunshine" <img class="size-full wp-image-1263200797" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-15-at-14.30.41.png" alt="" width="1154" height="252" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Facebook]] Another added: "Saw her last night in Melb and she was great.

One said she loves how "radical" the 80s megastar is. She wrote: "I especially loved when her and Adam Lambert sang at the Kennedy Center for Cher. I have played that over and over." <img class="size-full wp-image-1263200791" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-15-at-14.19.44.png" alt="" width="1144" height="344" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Facebook]] Another fan raved: "I love her music she was amazing her voice was awesome such energy.but she wore a very plain Red/ pink in Perth very [subtle] compared to Melbourne she looks Beautiful in all those amazing colours." <img class="size-full wp-image-1263200792" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-15-at-14.20.25.png" alt="" width="1146" height="346" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Facebook]] This person gushed: "I love her! She is so talented and she has never been afraid to be who ever she wanted to be. I love the purple mohawk! Rock it Cyndi!" <img class="size-full wp-image-1263200793" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/03/Screenshot-2023-03-15-at-14.21.07.png" alt="" width="1176" height="284" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Facebook]] Lauper seems to have debuted the purple ‘do in early March, with her first Instagram post featuring the striking hairstyle having been posted on March 2. [[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/CpRHOLUjEIs/]] In a recent interview, she said that she feels no pressure to remain a big name in the industry, telling <a href="https://www.aarp.org/entertainment/music/info-2016/cyndi-lauper-sings-country-2016.html">AARP The Magazine</a>: "You can't live your whole life worrying about staying famous. "If losing some fame means doing what you want, you gotta go with what you want' she added, stressing that chasing her passion is more important than staying in the limelight." <h6>Featured image credit: REUTERS / Alamy</h6>
