Cyndi Lauper Clashes with Heckler in Vegas

shot back at a heckler who interrupted her onstage during the first night of her residency at Caesars Palace.

While she was introducing one of her songs, a man in the crowd yelled something that was unintelligible in the footage that has surfaced online.

'I don't know what the f*** you're saying, hon,' said the Girls Just Wanna Have Fun hitmaker. 'Please remember where you are, okay? 'Cause if you're trying to shade me, b****, I'm gonna come for you. I'm from Brooklyn.'

Her response was met with an explosion of applause from the rest of the audience who had gathered Friday to listen to the 72-year-old songstress. 

'And if I wanna f***in' talk, I will do a tap dance if I f***in' want. Sorry. That, of course, is not part of my people's skills course,' she joked.

Lauper then returned to her setup to Sally's Pigeons, a 1993 song about a childhood friend of hers who died as a result of a back-alley abortion.

She began her Las Vegas residency Friday at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace and will continue to perform there through next Saturday, May 2.

Her dates include shows this Saturday, as well as next Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, with tickets still available for all the coming concerts.
