THE LEOPARD PRINT PAJAMAS FROM THE 'GIRLS JUST WANT TO HAVE FUN' MUSIC VIDEO
1983
A Sheila Anne red trim leopard print pajama set, 34.
Footnotes:
Belonging to her grandmother, the pajamas were worn in the music video for 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun' from the She's So Unusual album (Portrait Records, 1983).
The video began playing on MTV in October 1983 and would go on to win 'Best Female Video' at the inaugural 1984 MTV Video Music Awards. The lasting love for 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun' transcends its dance-able pop sound. Lauper swapped pronouns and various lyrics to change the song from a male perspective about chasing women into a female anthem about autonomy, solidarity, and the importance of women and girls living their lives with freedom and joy.
