Girls just want to have fun.
Cyndi Lauper lashed out at a heckler who yelled at her during the opening show of her Las Vegas residency on Friday night.
“I don’t know what he’s saying,” Roper, 72, said in footage taken by a fan of the show. “Remember where you are, okay?”
Lauper continued, “If you’re trying to throw some shade at me, I’m going to come for you. I’m from Brooklyn, if you want to talk shit, I’ll tap dance if you want.”
The “Time After Time” hitmaker received cheers and applause from the audience for his damning remarks. She then returned to performing.
Representatives for Roper did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Lauper previously promoted her Las Vegas residency, which will be held at the Colosseum on April 24, 25 and 29 and May 1-2, in a video she shared to Facebook earlier this week.
“Hey, we’re in Las Vegas! I can’t believe it,” the music icon said in the clip.
“We’ll have some surprises at the show, so come and see us. We can’t tell you. We’re excited! Just come (because) it’s going to be Shin’s night! See you at the show.”
She first announced her stay in October.
The Las Vegas show is the latest in a series of performances announced since she ended her “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” tour, which she previously called “farewell.”
“This is an arena tour that we haven’t done in a long time,” the songstress said in announcing the tour in June 2024.
“I want to thank everyone, I want to say goodbye, and I want to celebrate with my fans who are so loyal and sweet. They’ve been to all these crazy concerts and activities and I’m excited to be able to do it. I don’t think I’ll be that good physically for another five years, but I can do it now, right?”
“We’re going to have it all…and we’re going to mix art and moving visuals, and we’re going to use a lot of color and design. We haven’t had a fun tour since 1984, so this will be our 24th fun tour!”
