Catrine Dominique is a stage name utilized by Cyndi Lauper's mother in her daughter's music videos, where she makes a notable appearance alongside her famous offspring. Born on the picturesque island of Sicily, situated in the southern region of Italy, Catrine's life has been marked by a profound connection to her family.
As the mother of Cynthia Ann Stephanie "Cyndi" Lauper, Catrine has been instrumental in shaping the life and career of her talented daughter. She has three children, with Cyndi serving as the middle child, flanked by her eldest sibling Ellen and her youngest brother Fred Lauper.
Catrine's personal life has been marked by a long-term marriage to Fred Lauper, which unfortunately came to an end in the 1970s through divorce. Despite this, her love and dedication to her family have remained unwavering.
Tragically, Catrine's life was cut short when she succumbed to the devastating effects of dementia on June 1, 2022, leaving behind a lasting legacy as the mother of the iconic singer-songwriter Cyndi Lauper.
