It was always 'Cher', I never thought of myself as anything but 'Cher'.
I like listening to old soul music. I like Sam Cooke. When I was growing up, the first things I was listening to was Whitney Houston and Cher. They were really big inspirations for me.
I grew up with Cher and Motown, beautiful costumes.
Cher's great, she's incredible. She is an enormous, enormous star, who goes anywhere and crowds follow her...and yet she's a disciplined actress and she's down to Earth and cool. I can't say enough good things about her.
When I was really young, I got moonstruck by 'Moonstruck.'
I really loved 'Witches of Eastwick', the movie with Michelle Pfeiffer and Jack Nicholson and Cher.
All the writers on our show went in and got in the bed and took a picture in Cher's bed, even though she was never in it.
Cher and I didn't get along that well.
Someone once said "The only thing that will be left after a nuclear holocaust is Cher and cockroaches." I think that's funny, because, you know, I am a survivor. If I am anything, that's what I am.
Cher is one of the most talented women I've ever met. She's got depth and emotion that haven't even been touched.
Not to be rude to my sisters, but I don't listen to drag music. I listen to everything from punk to Italo disco to Appalachian country music, but I don't know what their records sound like. I hardly listen to my own records. I'm like Cher!
Evil or not, the recording industry kept Auto-Tune on the down-low. Cher's producer forced Auto-Tune to jump suddenly from one pitch to the next.
I don't always want to do Cher. I've been doing Cher for 25 years.
I did love Cher from Clueless. She had a great '90s wardrobe. The pleated skirts and the little knee-high socks and the whole school-girl thing.
She's not pretentious at all. I love that about her. I mean, she's this giant icon, but then she's just this little bohemian chick in Ugg boots and sweats. Sadly, Cher is only human.
The song that makes me the happiest when someone sings it is Cher's 'If I Could Turn Back Time.'
By 1976, I was, like, Gonesville. I practically lived at the Troubador for several years. When Bette Midler was there for six weeks, I went every day for both shows. I sat there mesmerized. The only person who went as much as I did was Cher.
As long as I don't end up hosting a skin care commercial with Cher, I'm happy.
