TORONTO (CP) - Cyndi Lauper was in town to give advice to the Canadian Idols over the weekend, but the '80s diva says she probably wouldn't have done well on the show.
"I don't know if someone was a radical, how (the audience and judges) would feel. I probably would have done terrible," she said.
Lauper, 53, was staying at the Idol mansion to workshop with the contestants as they prepare for '80s themed episodes to air Monday and Tuesday nights.
"I can only tell them things that I know, show them how I do it, and that's all I can do," said a dyed-blond Lauper in her thick New York accent.
Lauper is just the latest singer to dispense tips to the Idols; they have already worked with Nelly Furtado and are also set to perform for former Styx singer Dennis DeYoung and country star Martina McBride. But while Lauper says she'll show the contestants her way of doing things, she's not sure how her style will resonate with the Idol audience.
"I don't know that my personal vision is what they need to achieve, because each one of them is different, and my ideas are radical. I don't do conservative stuff, and their challenge is that some of it has to be conservative because they're going right down the mainstream," she said.
Lauper shot to fame in the early '80s as pop music's punk-inspired rebel princess with hits like Girls Just Want to Have Fun and Time After Time.
Last fall, she released The Body Acoustic, which included unplugged versions of her hits as well as a few new tunes.
Some of the contestants are younger than Lauper's best-known songs, but she says that makes her feel more flattered than old. And although it's been a couple of decades since she was riding high on the pop charts, she says time hasn't taken the wind out of her pipes.
"I never thought this, but as you get older you have much more energy."
Lauper said she appreciates shows like Canadian Idol because they help train wannabe musicians.
"I think nowadays, with the state of the industry...I think this show is one of the few places that young performers can actually get a kick-start," she said.
The singer will be staying with the Idols in the basement of the mansion until Tuesday when she will perform a number on the show. But don't expect her to lose sleep over any possible remarks from the Idol judges.
"Judges be damned. You know what, everybody's going to judge you. And some people hate you and some people love you, and it doesn't matter," she said.

Brandon: Il a très bien fait, à mon avis.
Craig: Bon choix de chanson, très bien interprétée. Il n'est pas près de partir avec la gueule qu'il a.

Craig, chanson : Wind beneath my wing, Bette Midler
J'aime pas comment ses cheveux sont placés .. mais on s'en fout !
Maudit qu'il a une belle voix ce gars-là !! Quel contrôle ! J'ai des frissons .. J'adore cette chanson-là en plus ! Lui aussi a corrigé sa gestuelle.
Sass : Le jour où tu feras un Cd, tu devrais cette chanson, parce que tu la maitrise totalement
Farley : Parfait, très contrôlé
Zack : Fausse un peu, Il a beaucoup de potentiel, mais j'ai pas compris son expression
Jake : Bonne chanson, parfaite toune pour lui, la semaine prochaine, essaie qqch de différent, hors de ton élément.

Pepsi, c'est un thème des années 80 alors ils ont un peu changer le look.
Pour la voix, il a pas encore muer
Ouf merci de la précision!!
