Girls just want to have fun by Cyndi Lauper . . . fun facts!

This was Lauper’s first single as a solo artist. She released an album in 1981 as a member of the group Blue Angel.

The video, which ran constantly on MTV, featured wrestler Captain Lou Albano as Lauper’s father. It won the first ever award for Best Female Video at the 1984 Video Music Awards. Albano was also in her next video, “Tim After Time.”

This was a huge part of ’80s culture. Not only did the song became an anthem for female attitude, but it set fashion trends as the video showed Lauper wearing bright, outrageous clothes that looked like they came from a thrift store (they often did). It set the stage for artists like Madonna – independent women wearing cheap, yet fashionable clothes and who like to accessorize.

In 2004, Carnival Cruise Lines used this in a series of commercials.

Now let’s have some fun picking out some new shoes at Heels.com!
