It’s been four decades since her iconic character first twirled her way across American television sets, and two years since Lynda Carter — a.k.a. Wonder Woman — first re-emerged, performing at the Kennedy Center in support of her last album At Last and sitting for a Metro Weekly cover feature. About the popularity among gays of Wonder Woman, she told the magazine: “It’s kind of like being a country/western star. If you are liked by the gay and lesbian population, you’ve really made it. It’s like that kind of loyalty.” She’s now promoting a new CD — Crazy Little Things — with a stop Saturday, May 14, at 2 p.m., at the Barnes & Noble at Tysons Corner Mall, 7851 L. Tysons Corner Center, McLean, Va. Call 703-506-2937 or visit barnesandnoble.com.
