About Me

**To clear up any misunderstanding this is the only page I have the other million pages are made by fans**My career has endured forty years of fame, first as a singer, then as a TV comedian and, later, as a mature and talented actress. I was dragged out of my job as a studio back-up singer by crooner and music promoter Sonny Bono when I was in my late teens. Sonny formed the immensely popular duo, Sonny & Cher, though we continued to occasionally record on our own. Sonny and I married in 1964. Musically, the husband-wife team grew ever more popular. Then our interests shifted at the turn of the decade and we started to work on comedy sketches. 'The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour' debuted in 1971, and ran for three years on the networks. In 1974 Sonny and I split, both professionally and romantically. I returned to music and recorded a series of commercially successful pop albums. Sonny eased himself out of showbiz and into politics. I was remarried briefly, in 1975, to Greg Allman. Film was my passion of the 1980s, and I worked hard on small parts, eventually winning Best Supporting Actress at the Academy Awards for my performance in 'Silkwood'. I was then offered starring roles in 'Mask', 'Suspect' and 'The Witches of Eastwick'. In 1987 I won the Academy Awards Best Actress for the role in 'Moonstruck'. I made my directing debut, with 'If These Walls Could Talk', in 1996. I have two children, Chastity by Sonny and Elijah by Greg. New Videos - Thanks to Marla for sending these.

July 2006 Meeting wounded Troops Landstuhl Medical CenterJune 15th, 2006 - U.S.Capitol hearing Operation Helmet's Dr. Meaders appearing with Cher before the House Armed Services Subcommittee on Tactical Air and Land Forces at the request of Rep. Curt Weldon (PA-R)

My Interests

I have teamed up with Dr. Bob Meaders, founder and president of Operation-Helmet.org to help shed light on current problems with the existing helmets being used by members of the U.S. Military. I am committed to working with Operation Helmet to upgrade existing helmets to protect troops against blasts and impact concussions that they face in bomb blasts and motor vehicle accidents. Many of the helmets, including the new Marine Corps lightweight helmet, were designed to protect primarily against bullets and explosive fragments.when I was young, there was this section in the Reader's Digest. It was called "The Most Unforgettable Character I've Ever Met", and for me that person is Sonny Bono. And no matter how long I live or who I meet in my life, that person will always be Sonny for me.

I'd like to meet:
