Cyndi Lauper breaks silence after 'mass walkout' and sound blunders in Glastonbury set

Cyndi Lauper has brushed off "technical difficulties" during her Glastonbury set, saying they paled in comparison to the festival's atmosphere.

The American singer, performed on the iconic Pyramid Stage at the UK music festival on Saturday and faced microphone issues during the initial performance.

At one point when she stumbled, Lauper told the audience it was a "little crazy" and we have "got a hole over here", seemingly frustrated with the sound and staging. When questioned by BBC Breakfast about whether she enjoyed herself, Lauper responded: "Yes, I did, I mean I had a few technical things, wardrobe difficulties, but I had fun."

Cyndi went on to say she didn't want to focus or be harsh on the difficulties faced. "Sometimes you’re up there and the sound is like, ‘Whoa’. But (it) doesn’t matter because the spirit … is there and that was great," she insisted.

She also admitted her silver pants caused an issue. The attire, which were part of an outfit consisting of a silver bodice and a jacket with a blue tulle train, were “falling down” as she sang. She explained this then created difficulties when she was trying to walk around the stage, and energize the crowd in front of her.

“What are you going to do? (There was a) wardrobe difficulty there but it was OK,” she commented.

The audio gradually improved during her popular song Girls Just Wanna Have Fun as she then called for action on protecting women’s “reproductive rights”.

Making her point known to the Glastonbury festivalgoers, she said: "It is time that the world leaders understand that women are half the population of the world and we deserve to be treated equally, no matter where we’re from or what we look like.”

The iconic songstress also sang a number of her other huge hits, including Time After Time, Money Changes Everything, True Colours and I Drove All Night.
