Cher‘s Tell-All Memoir: From Hollywood Beginnings to Triumphant Reinvention
Legendary singer and actress Cher is revealing all in her highly anticipated memoir, "Cher. The Memoir." The two-part autobiography, published by HarperCollins, offers an intimate glimpse into the icon’s remarkable life, from her childhood amidst Hollywood’s glitz and glamor to her tumultuous relationships and enduring career.
The first volume, released this week in London, takes readers back to Cher’s early years. Born Cheryl Sarkisian, Cher was just four years old when she was captivated by Elvis Presley’s electrifying stage presence. In Cher’s own words, "I want this too, even more so: ‘I want to be like him.’"
Growing up immersed in Hollywood, Cher witnessed firsthand the allure and challenges of show business. Her mother, an aspiring actress, regularly hosted gatherings brimming with actors, singers, and writers, exposing young Cher to a world of creativity and ambition.
Cher’s memoir doesn’t shy away from the darker aspects of her life, candidly addressing her challenging childhood marked by her mother’s multiple marriages. She also delves into her highly publicized and complicated marriage to Sonny Bono, the partnership that catapulted her to music stardom.
Reflecting on her decision to end the marriage, Cher shared a poignant anecdote with fellow music titan Tina Turner: “I packed my stuff, got in the car and left.” Remarkably, Tina followed suit a year later, ending her own tumultuous marriage to Ike Turner.
Despite enduring hardships, Cher maintains an enviable resilience. As VRT NWS reporter and Cher superfan Joris Vergeyle observed, "So many bad things have happened in her life that Cher has every reason to be bitter, but there’s no sign of that. Her motto is ‘Just keep going,’ "
Cher’s unwavering spirit is evident in her continued creative endeavors. At 78, the unstoppable icon is already working on a new album, proving that her passion and drive remain as potent as ever.
"Cher. The Memoir" promises to be an illuminating and inspiring read, offering a glimpse into the heart and mind of one of the most enduring figures in entertainment history.
