Today is the official release date of Cyndi Lauper's two-disc She's So Unusual: A 30th Anniversary Celebration--and that's no joke. The new release of the album includes demos, rehearsals, B-sides, live tracks, and remixes. We couldn't be more excited.

Except now we are: We have a special interview in which the songstress explains how some of those lyrics. You may be too young to remember, but when "She Bop" hit the radio, it caused a stir since it was about female masturbation. And it turns out, Cyndi used a copy of Blue Boy, a gay porn mag, to get inspired.
