Cher NOT in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame???

Sonny & CHER NOT in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame???

This is so sick!!!!! Sonny & Cher got together in 1962 and began recording in 1963/1964 and hit BIG in 1965.

Cher is still going strong unlike NO other female from the 1960s!!!!

Posted by Tara Crete on Sunday, 06/16/2013 @ 18:13pm

No Cher or Sonny & Cher?!!!!!

Kind of shocking!

Posted by Lynee Yanko on Wednesday, 12/18/2013 @ 21:11pm

Horrible horrible horrible.

Cher deserves better. She is the only female from the 60s still charting. Right now she is on the AC Chart on Billboard with I Hope You Find It. By the way Cher first entered the Billboard Bubbling Under chart in 1964. Just think 1964-2014!

Just think CHER is also on a major stadium Dressed To Kill Tour. We see her soon in NY! What other 1960's female act still fill stadiums????

Posted by Kendra Yale on Friday, 04/11/2014 @ 21:31pm

Yeah… I TOTALLY agree that Cher SHOULD'VE been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame a LONG LONG time ago!! I love her!! Cher's talents are across the board. Music, Movies & Stage.. She's afabulous human being.. inside & out!! BUT……here's the PROBLEM with Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame… They want Cher to kiss ass!! I say screrw them!! She knows how good she is…don't kiss ass at any cost! Your fans love you just the same!

Ugh! The new noms are out and as usual no Cher. Sickening!

How can you not put her in? Hits like Believe and I got you babe!!! And the famous 70's TV show.

If Cher goes in at all, it will probably be with Sonny.

Cher shouldv'e been in many moons ago & of course w/Sonny too. Why not, likely politics. Ugh!

Yes, Sonny and Cher, Cher should have been inducted years ago. The first record I bought as a kid was Halfbreed. We all loved Cher. She should have been in waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before Madonna.

Posted by Myrna Mandjikov on Wednesday, 07/8/2015 @ 17:21pm

Cher's 1989 Heart of Stone was written by Andy Hill of Bucks Fizz and Peter Sinfield of King Crimson. The song was released a year earlier in Europe as a hit for Bucks Fizz.

Posted by Roy on Sunday, 09/13/2015 @ 16:30pm

Cher is a goddess and she has done everything in music and ruled during the 1960's and 1970's. Her rock career blossomed in the 1980's during her Geffen era. Cher still makes music and really is the only 1960's female left doing it in a BIG way. Many artits of a lessor stature are in the RORHOF. It is true that Jann Wenner does not like her and THAT is what keeps her out of the Hall.

Posted by JengalDC on Monday, 10/5/2015 @ 19:06pm

I am a bodybuilder and have used Cher's 80's version of Bang Bang. It is a great hard rock version of her old 1966 song. The 80's version was done when she was at GEFFEN Records and it is a great song to pose to.

Posted by Jason M on Sunday, 11/1/2015 @ 08:12am

No CHER in the hall. Balderdash!!!!!!!

Posted by London1983 on Thursday, 12/17/2015 @ 14:32pm

Why don't they ever put out Cher's Warner Brother's albums from the mid-70's like Stars, I'd Rather Believe in You and others. They never get old Cher suff out only the same stuff over and over again. Cher is one of the only artists dating back to the 1960's with so much of her catalog NOT on CD. By the way much of that unreleased to CD stuff off those WBR albums was great Rock.

My fave Cher album is Black Rose followed by 3614 Jackson Highway and Stars and all her GEFFEN albums. My favorite Cher musical style is ROCK. I don't mind dance but prefer Cher singing Rock & Roll and Cher is great doing rock.

kinda like how they made her look like a biker in Mask or like a make-up free lesbian in Silkwood. I doubt Bob Mackie will design the wardrobe for this movie. Off the rack from Sears or K-Mart.

Posted by Lilly1986 on Sunday, 03/19/2017 @ 12:09pm

Saw clips of her show at Monte Carlo in Vegas and she is still pulling in the dough. I guess Cher is close to her mom, Georgia Holt and decided to not film her movie. Nice to see a gal in her 70s still has a mom. Good genes I guess.

Posted by JJhass on Friday, 04/21/2017 @ 15:18pm

We will see her Classic Cher show in Vegas and cannot wait!!!!

Posted by April U on Sunday, 05/14/2017 @ 10:34am

She got the BILLBOARD ICON award and tore the house down in her If I Could Turn Back Time sheer see-through outfit in heels. Not bad for 71. Cher looked great and seemed to have a ball and the audience loved it.

Posted by karentimminis on Friday, 05/26/2017 @ 04:15am

Ya saw her on the Billboards & she did rock & looked fun in her see-through bodystocking and heels.

Saw Cher on the news at Gregg Allman's funeral. Sad. Gregg was so talented and had a hard life. By the way I really loved their album together called Allman & Woman Two the Hard Way. It was soulful and they sang it that way.

Posted by Palo83 on Monday, 07/3/2017 @ 23:34pm

Most assume Cher is in with Sonny Bono. This woman has influenced so many current singers. She is the only person to have a Top 10 hit for 6 decades. Check out her performances and her outfits . This is a major snub!

Posted by Kariann1 on Thursday, 07/6/2017 @ 14:04pm

Was just in Vegas and saw all the posters for Cher's show at Monte Carlo called Classic Cher. I want to get back there in 2018 to see her. The local rags gave her great reviews.

Today it was announced that her and a few others will be getting Kennedy Center Honors. Barely any movie stars made the cut (Cher did have a few decent roles but there are several film/TV actresses that deserve Kennedy Center Honors as much as her...).

I still don't know if she's Rock Hall-worthy. She's been around for 50+ years, with many memorable songs, some of them timeless ("I Got You Babe", "I Found Someone"). I am aware that a lot of people (as in users for this site) want her in. The Hall hasn't been that kind to divas that much, so really I'm not holding my breath. As for me, I'm more happy to see her get the KC Honors.

Posted by Jason Voigt on Wednesday, 07/25/2018 @ 20:03pm

CHER is coming to NZ & Australia on her new tour. Can't wait. As far as the hall goezzzzzz, dumb-assed not lettin' her in. What is Kennedy Center Honors? Sounds good whatever it is. When I think of American Presidents, Kennedy always sounds good unlike now.

Posted by JobesonNZ on Thursday, 08/2/2018 @ 10:25am

Just heard Cher's new song Gimmie Gimmie Gimmie (A Man After Midnight). WOW! She goes full out on this song. Cheers to Cher and it's on the BBC Radio like Fernando so at 72 she's still on the radio.

Cher on ‘Getting My Ass Kicked’ Singing ABBA, Trump ‘Insanity’ and Her #MeToo Tale
Speaking of “SOS": "How the f---- is this happening?” the never-shy singer-actor wonders about America's political climate.

The last time I interviewed Cher was at her Malibu mega-mansion, and before the photo shoot, I committed a cardinal sin: I accidentally knocked over the wig she planned to wear. It toppled over and hit the kitchen floor with a thud as Cher’s glam squad looked on, horrified. Fortunately, I was assured that Cher could not possibly hear the mass squealing because her upstairs bedroom was about as far away as a football field.

Wigs once again factored into my latest rendezvous with Cher. “She was blonde yesterday; today she’s a brunette,” her European publicist whispered in my ear before we entered Cher’s suite. We met in a palatial room at the Sunset Marquis, which was illuminated only by candlelight, not unlike one of those “VH1 Behind the Music” specials from the nineties. Cher’s look could best be described as goth grandma: All black attire to match her faux locks, pale makeup, four fingers adorned with chunky silver Loree Rodkin rings and sharp nails. “My hands are really cold,” Cher said apologetically.


Cold hands, warm heart, as they say. And at 72, Cher plans to continue heating up dance floors at gay clubs all around the world — a neo-disco inferno, if you will — with her forthcoming Abba covers album, “Dancing Queen,” due out on Sept. 28. The still-sexy septuagenarian also plans to take Broadway by storm with “The Cher Show,” a musical inspired by her life that may help the Emmy, Grammy and Oscar winner to join an elite club of E.G.O.T. recipients. One thing’s for certain: She’ll take home a Kennedy Center Honor in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 2 — the night before her debut on the Great White Way.

Abba meets Cher. Is this the gayest thing you’ve ever done?

No! Can I tell you something? The gay community and I are like one. And I don’t think of gay guys as different from me. We just made some sort of pact long ago that we were going to be together. I’m finding out that people in the gay community are really excited. But Abba does not scream Cher. Would you ever have thought: “Oh, that’s a marriage made in heaven?”

The thing about Abba is that while their melodies are upbeat, the lyrics tend to be on the sad side.

Some of them are, like, poppy-sadness, like “Waterloo.” They’re not hurting. And then there are others like “One of Us” and “Winner Takes It All” where they’re just in tatters. I had time to really interpret the lyrics. And if you listen to “One of Us,” I had more freedom to interpret the song. I would have never thought to do it had I not done the musical [“Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again”] and sang “Fernando” and “Super Trouper.” There’s nothing that screams Cher and Abba. The girls sing high, Benny [Andersson] has no end riffs and Björn [Ulvaeus] writes music inside out. Which is one of things that I find really interesting: Because he doesn’t write in English, because he doesn’t think in English, he gets to the story line kind of in a weird way. But it makes the story line seem more interesting. When I was learning “Fernando,” I was thinking: “This doesn’t make sense to me. I can’t remember putting words together like this.” And then I thought: “Of course you can’t. Because the songs you’ve been doing your whole life have been thought out in English.” So actually I found a great respect for his lyrics.


You’ve said that you were surprised the songs were harder to sing than you initially thought they would be.

Because I thought that they were, like, poppy songs. And I did not realize. It wasn’t harder, but I had to think more and I had to not just toss it off. I had to sing “Fernando” twice because the first time I did it, it was awful. I thought: “I’ll go in and ace it.” Well, I went in and got my ass kicked.

Why did you dedicate the album to your mother?

Everybody asks me that but I’m so curious to know why people think it’s a strange thing. A couple reasons: My mom was my first fan. My mom and I had like mom and daughter issues, but my mom was supportive when my career was in the toilet. My mom was like: “Never give up, just keep going, you’re so talented, people are just wrong and silly, and you kick ass.” My mom is a really kick-ass woman.

The single “SOS” was recently released and I couldn’t help reading into it. It’s like a state of emergency for the state of our country.

Oh, don’t read into it. If you go on Twitter, you know I’m not sly. You can read it that way if you want, and of course it’s applicable, but I wasn’t even thinking about that at the time. Except I think it permeates my world: Trump’s insanity. To any thinking person it has to be a constant: “How the f— is this happening?”

Do you think he will finally be impeached?

I don’t think so. I really don’t. I think he will fire Jeff Sessions and he will put in this guy who is a criminal and they will close the Mueller investigation. I think that the Mueller investigation will have doubles of every piece of information that they have, and I do not doubt that Trump is guilty of everything and more. But I think that this won’t happen now — it will be saved and, at some point, it will come out.

I can’t believe it’s been 54 years since your first single, “Ringo, I Love You.” What is your first memory of that?


Phillip [Spector] didn’t want to do it. That’s my earliest memory. Because he just wasn’t that interested. And Sonny kind of just beat him down and beat him down. And then people wouldn’t play it because they said it sounds like a guy singing the song. It sounds like a ‘gay song.’

And what did you say to that?

I didn’t say anything. I was just like, “Oh, OK. Whatever.” I had no power or anything like that. I was a background singer.

You’ve won an Oscar, and Emmy and a Grammy. How interested are you in winning a Tony for “The Cher Show?”

That would be fabulous. But more importantly than winning awards, I want it to be a good show that people are impacted by. That they are taken out of this world by however long the musical lasts from the moment they’re in it. There are moments when you are acting where someone says “action” and then all of a sudden they say “cut” and you don’t remember any of it. Because you were so in the moment. And that’s what I think entertainment does. It can just take you out of your problems. When I go on stage, that’s my job.

How surreal is it to see your life on stage in a Broadway show?

It’s not that much fun. In the ways where you have told too much truth to the writer [Rick Elice].

Does it feel too revealing?

Would you want your life out there?

Nope. But you’ve always been authentic and that’s so rare for someone of your stature.

I haven’t always told the complete truth. When asked questions, I’ve tried to tell the truth that doesn’t infringe upon a part of me that I want to hold to myself. But usually it’s pretty easy to tell the truth to the questions that people ask. Because there’s a place that people don’t want to go past, you know?

Well, I want to go there with Cher! How do you feel about not being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame despite your upcoming Kennedy Center Honor. Does that mean anything to you?


It did for a while. Sonny and Cher made a huge impact. Those people are snobs and they don’t think of us as musicians — or don’t think of me as a musician. And the truth is I don’t give a flying f—.

How worried are you that LGBTQ rights might be threatened by the Supreme Court vacancy?

I am completely, completely terrified. If he gets to be the king he wants to be, I fear it could go to a place that none of us ever expected in our entire lives where you’d have to be really frightened. Whoever thought that someone would be able to separate children from their parents? And then have 500 left over and people are forgetting about them day by day. I mean, I lost Elijah once in a market for 40 minutes and I was hysterical. It doesn’t make any difference where they come from. But people are so traumatized by everything he says and everything he does. You know, I used to think that it was a big mistake for him to have so much tumultuous activity around him and now I think it’s brilliant. Because you just get tired and you’re waiting for the next shoe to drop. He’s like a f—ing millipede.

I want to go back to something you said when you were talking about your days as a backup singer: You had no power. Fortunately, because of the #MeToo movement, women who were victims of sexual harassment and abuse when they were young and powerless have finally come forward. Did you have any experiences like that at the time?

I had one, and I was already Cher. But I just thought really quickly on how to get out of it, and I did. I know women go through this all the time. We all go through: We’re not strong enough. We’re not stronger. And I knew I was going to get out of it. I walked in, I was going for a job. He was a famous producer. I sat down, and he just said the most off-color thing I’ve ever heard. And then reached out and put his hand on me. And my mind was, like, exploding. I said: “You know, I wasn’t really feeling well when I came over. I was really sick to my stomach, but I wanted this interview so bad that I thought when I get there everything will be fine. The truth is I am not feeling well, but this interview is so important to me that I want to come back another day.” And I just got the hell out. But women walking down the street don’t know what to do. It’s not paranoia. We’re constantly vigilant. Guys could walk down the same street and not even think about anything. But you walk down the street and you’re aware of your surroundings and who is walking towards you. You’re not doing it constantly. But sometimes the feeling happens and you have to check your list. Whatever your checklist is about what your innate responses should be, like: “Who do I think that guy is?” It just happens sometimes, but it happens. And I don’t think it happens to men. Ever.


Are you excited to tour the world once again?

I don’t know. I’m too old for this.

I went to your Farewell Tour!

Yeah? Well, so did I.

Just heard CHER had the biggest opening SALES numbers for the USA's Billboard Top 200 in 2018. Not bad for a 72 year-old. I mean the biggest numbers for a FEMALE in 2018!!! That means higher sales numbers for her album than much younger gals like Nicki Minaj got for theirs.

Cher was the recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors which is a big deal. Not many Rock and Roll Hall of Famers are acknowledged by the Kennedy Center. The Kennedy Center salutes lifetime contributions to the arts.

Melanie
Peter Paul & Mary
5th Dimension

Dionne Warwick

you kids have got to stop this nonsense of thinking somebody was deserving because you have brown nosers telling - it is called propaganda.

this a garbage ticket proof low vote fan totals
there were several red flags on jj that pointed to paid for voting and not fans

What is this infamous voting committee - so who got together and decided what garbage to dump in the hall?

no one can prove that the votes were even counted

We got ticks for Cher in London this year and cannot wait. Love her DQ album and for Christmas my mum got me Cher's Not Commercial CD and I loved it. That was one I did not have.

Just saw one of my fave Cher albums 3614 Jackson Highway from 1969 is coming out again on vinyl. Such a bluesy rock LP.

Posted by kkdowe on Friday, 01/11/2019 @ 17:33pm

Friends of our in south Florida see her in Fort Lauderdale this weekend. Get get her in Boston in April. Can't wait to see her again. She seems to have a blast and the fans always seem to get high off her.

Luv Cher's liberal tweets. Unlike Trump she is very funny. An icon for the ages.

Caught Cher's 1968 movie Chastity streaming and it was fun like her.

My wife and I attended the Cher concert in Cleveland on Wednesday 2-6-19. It was an incredible concert, the show of the year. Cher is a true artist and performer, and this is the 4th show my wife and I attended. She deserves to be in the Rock and Roll hall of Fame as well as Cindi Lauper and Pat Benetar. My question is, Why hasn't Cher at least been nominated?

Cher and others appear to meet all the criteria listed at the RRHOF website. Everyone we met was genuinely interested in why Cher has not been inducted, and to my recollection, even nominated.
She is an influencer to other performers or genres; length and depth of career and catalog; stylistic innovations. She is a true legend. Even ABBA is an inductee?

to share your thoughts with the nominating committee and write them a letter at the following address:
ATTN: Jon Landau

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Nice Posting Steve. I don't get it eirher. WE get to see Cher's show next month and will they buy ticks to see The CHER SHOW on Broadway. It's with NYC, you realllllllllllllllllly have to plan since hotels are expensive but my hubby owes me. How many R&RHOFers have their own Broadway Show?? Not many.

Cher was on the VH1 Special with Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House. She did the impassioned intro for Nancy.

Posted by Kimmie P on Saturday, 03/9/2019 @ 05:10am

Just got Cher's 3614 Jackson Highway album on vinyl and love it. I think it was out around 1969. Either way so soulful. Southern Rock.

Posted by letta1995 on Wednesday, 04/10/2019 @ 14:04pm

Got the Cher Show Broadway soundtrack for the show. We have tickets to see her show in NYC next month. I agree with those posts that say: What other artist is on tour live AND has her own Broadway show going on at the same time?

Posted by taneese on Sunday, 04/14/2019 @ 08:21am

The Tonight Show dedicated one WHOLE show this week to Cher and the cast of the Cher Show. Great show and it makes me want to go see the show on Broadway so like other have said, she is going strong in 2019/2020 and even though the Hall of Fame does not want her, the public does.

CLEVELAND, Ohio – Count Bette Midler as someone who really (like, REALLY) thinks Cher should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
[Sign up for a FREE trial of Project Text and get updates, insights and breaking news on the Rock Hall]
The singer and actress took to Twitter Tuesday afternoon to express her displeasure with the fact that Cher is not in the Rock Hall, calling it “utter bulls***.”


Midler isn’t the first person to lobby for Cher. In fact, Gold Derby conducted a poll last year, asking which female artist has been most overlooked. Cher earned an impressive 33 percent of that vote.
And, in case you’re wondering, Cher ranks among the greatest selling musicians of all time, ahead of Rock Hall Inductees like Genesis, James Taylor, The Beach Boys, Johnny Cash and R.E.M.

Great piece online today about Cher being the top female choice to get into the Hall. Tina Turner came in second in the poll. Tina is already in with Ike but Cher is not in with Sonny or in as a solo artist.

She has a high chance of getting a nomination this year.

Posted by The Dude on Friday, 09/13/2019 @ 13:14pm

Jann Wenner hates her and he is leaving so she has a shot with him out. Cher kinda outlasts everyone. I remember years back an old Hollywood story that Lucille Ball had a party in the 60's or 70's and Cher was there as was Johnny Carson. Johnny wanted Lucy to make Cher leave and Lucy did not. Somehow Johnny did not like her and the feeling was likewise but Cher still did the Tonight show when Johnny was off. Of course Johnny is gone but Cher is very much here.

Posted by jannattat on Sunday, 10/6/2019 @ 09:07am

OK, how is it we have an icon in the Biz since 1962/1963 still not in????????????

Posted by jonhart on Saturday, 11/2/2019 @ 13:33pm

The fact is, women were there for the
birth of rock'n'roll and at every stage since;
the Hall has just ignored them. Why weren't
Aretha Franklin, Sister Rosetta Tharpe and
Big Mama Thornton in that inaugural class?
Why did it take 32 years for Tharpe to be
inducted? Why has Thornton — singer of
the original "Hound Dog" — still not even
been nominated? While the Hall has started
inducting mediocre white male rock bands
from the 1980s and 1990s (I'm looking at
you, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi), here are
some great artists of the 1960s and 1970s
it still has not saluted: Labelle, Cher, the
Marvelettes, Bette Midler, Dolly Parton,
Celia Cruz.
Even worse has been the response from
Wenner. When asked about the Hall's lack
of diversity, the Rolling Stone founder told
the New York Times, "Musical achievements
have got to be race-neutral and genderneutral in terms of judging them." In other
words, Wenner is saying that the Dave
Matthews Band has been nominated before
the Go-Go's, despite the latter's all-female
game-changers having been eligible for 12
more years than the jam band, because of
DMB's gender-neutral musical achievements — not because the mostly white, male
nominating committee sees themselves in
this group of guys.

Her Chiququita in Spanish for UNICEF was so beautifully done. So here we have Cher at 74 doing a gorgeous performance in 2020 yet not in the R&RHOF as if she does not exist. Glad how Cher's career has outlasted nearly all of the HOF inductees.

Posted by Lizelle1991 on Wednesday, 06/3/2020 @ 12:14pm

Cher not being in is sacrilege at this point. She's made far more impact and has lasted far long than half of the acts inducted- including many of this year's inductees. She's a pioneer in the game both image and music wise and popularity so if anyone deserves to be the 2021 headliner for induction its the goddess herself.

Posted by ABJ on Wednesday, 06/17/2020 @ 13:46pm

Before you put Rap Artist in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and by the way Rap Artist have the iwn hall of fame inductions. There is a. lot of Musicians that are not in the hall of Fame that should be in there So before you put any more Rap Artist let look at the Musicians that should have been in long ago like CHER Andy Gibb The Osmonds

Posted by carolyn on Wednesday, 07/29/2020 @ 21:17pm

I love Cher's stuff from the 1960's followed by Cher's stuff in the 80's. Her early stuff in the 1960's sounded so retro and her rock stuff on Geffen in the 1980's was awesome.

Posted by llkinson89 on Saturday, 08/1/2020 @ 18:55pm

Cher - Chiquitita (Spanish Version) [Official Video] - YouTube is gorgeous. She did this for UNICEF. So simple and such a powerful song. Cher is just timeless. Her voice in 2020 is stronger than it was in 1963/964 when she started out.

Luv Cher's Happiness Is Just A Thing Called Joe. She sings this song from the heart and the scenes of Joe Biden along with Cher's rendering of the song made me cry. Nice to see Cher still is so out there. She has supported Democrats since Kennedy in 1960. There was a wonderful pic in our paper of Cher with Sonny in 1968 surrounded by Bobby Kennedy posters.

Who determines who is eligible or who is nominated for the Rock and roll Hall of Fame I think they should leave it up to the public because if they did it's obviously that the woman that certainly deserves it should be there which would be Cher.they should also reconsider at least if you get nominated in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame one time that's more than enough that way he makes it fair for other rock and roll singers that deserve it should be able to get in there too

Posted by Virgil collins on Tuesday, 02/23/2021 @ 17:35pm

I'm 29 and adore Cher. I keep finding old albums that are not even on streaming services. She has so much out there. I just found her I'd Rather Believe In You album and a few months ago found Not Commercial. Great stuff. Her career has spanned the decades and she is still a CAT A-Lister star.

Posted by kyreece91 on Monday, 03/1/2021 @ 04:52am

Just noticed her 1975 STARS album is remastered and on You Tube. STARS is such a great album and has never been out on CD. Actually Cher has several albums never put on CD or streaming. She is one of the very few big stars of music to not have her whole back catalog out. I am shocked she was not inducted to the hall eons ago.

Posted by kdro88 on Sunday, 07/18/2021 @ 14:08pm

So much old stuff from Cher is NOT out there. I personally LOVE her STARS album and all those other WBR albums from that 1975-1980 era like I'd Rather Believe In You, Cherished, Allman & Woman Two the Hard Way and Black Rose. Her Black Rose album is pure ROCK.

Posted by Frannyfran on Monday, 08/2/2021 @ 09:46am

I see I'd Rather Believe In You and Cherished are now remastered on You Tube. We now need these on CD. Lots of Cher's old stuff was not put out on CD or even iTunes. Sad since she has so much material only available via bootleg.

Posted by hyan88 on Monday, 08/16/2021 @ 04:07am

There is virtually NO female (And some male) artist that doesn't owe something to Cher.
This woman held her own with ALL of the Jackson 5.
She's had number one records for Nearly SIX Decades now.
She has an Emmy, Oscar, Grammy, & countless other awards.
She is an American ICON of music, songwriting, Film, Fashion, & the stage.

OK, I love Dolly Parton but to see Dolly inducted into the ROCK & ROLL Hall of Fame before CHER and Sonny & CHER is beyond belief. It would be like if Cher were inducted into the Country Hall of Fame before Dolly. I mean Cher is not country and Dolly is not Rock. Both of them Rock though, so I am not shading Dolly. I just find it odd to keep excluding Cher.

Not sure why the women from the 1960s and 1970s have such a hard time with the RRHOF, when Rap artists and pop stars like Whitney Houston got in years ago.

It's Only been the last several years that Rock superstars like Linda Ronstadt, Joan Jett, Heart, Stevie Nicks, Tina Turner, The Go Gos, Carly Simon, Annie Lennox, and Pat Benatar were finally inducted. What does Jann Wenner have against female Rock and Pop Rockers? These women should've been inducted decades ago.

Now it's Cher's turn. Induct her already.

Posted by Jay on Thursday, 11/24/2022 @ 14:39pm

Jay, you ae so right. Bullcrap. I know Jann Wenner hate her. Sad but true. BUT that should not prevent her from getting in. Not fair. Believe it or not, Sonny & Cher are still not in the Hall of Fame.

Luving the New Year's press for Cher and Alexander "A.E." Edwards. I agree they need to team up on at least one song. She is with Warner Bros and he Univeral so both have big labels behind them, or they could record for any other label. As far as Cher NOT in the R&RHOF, a disgrace!

Cher met and moved in with Sonny Bono in 1962 and began recording with him in 1963 as Caesar & Cleo, so it has been 60 years of recording for Cher. Cher is still very active and is working on a new album for WBR, so here she is still viable 60 years into her recording career. Time for Sonny & Cher and Cher solo to get in.

Cher always gets the last laugh. She is going to record 2 new albums in the UK with her boyfriend Alexander AE Edwards. Not too shabby and is still on a major record label, Warner Bros. She is also planning a new tour and so many other projects. Once again, not too shabby. While the R&RHOF treats her like dirt, her success continues on and on and on.

Posted by Danny Griffith on Monday, 03/13/2023 @ 07:01am

You gotta be kidding. No Cher?

Adore Cher and Sonny & Cher and hard to imagine them still not in the HOF but lots of things are odd now in this world. Hope this gets fixed soon.

Cher and Chaz Bono are teaming up to executive produce the new horror film Little Bites, which will start production later this month in Los Angeles.

Bono will also appear in the movie, which will star Krsy Fox and horror icons Barbara Crampton, Heather Langenkamp and Bonnie Aarons. The film will be directed and written by Spider One, the frontman for rock band Powerman 5000 and younger brother of Rob Zombie who has directed the horror films Allegoria and Bury the Bride, which Bono executive produced and starred in. Spider One and Fox's OneFox Productions will produce.

"I'm so excited to be working on my second film with OneFox Productions and to be working with my mom Cher is an extra bonus," said Bono, whose credits include American Horror Story and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Little Bites follows Mindy (Fox), a young widow and mother who tries to protect her daughter Alice (Elizabeth Caro) from a flesh eating monster named Agyar (Jon Sklaroff). Mindy has been secretly sacrificing her own life by allowing the creature to feast on her body as she keeps Alice hidden away at her grandmother's house.

"This film serves as a dark metaphor for parenthood and protecting your children at all costs. The stakes are high and the outcome is terrifying and gruesome," Fox said. "I've never taken on a character quite like Mindy. Her emotional toll is heavy and it feels as though the world is against her. She's a hero in the way that any loving parent is. She does whatever it takes to protect her child. I can't wait to work with this iconic cast and team to bring Spider's incredible vision for this film to life."

The cast also includes Lyndsi LaRose and Mark Kelly. Along with Cher and Bono, OneFox Productions is joined by executive producers Ian Hoge, Tyler Connolly and Wendy and Mark Berry. Dan Rozenblum of 33 and West is the sales agent for the film.

"To be surrounded and supported by such legendary talent and producing partners is quite honestly a surreal experience. There could not be a better team to help me realize the terrifying and heartbreaking tale," Spider One said.

Cher producing, interesting and with her son Chaz. Not many in the RORHOF who have won Oscars for Acting and produce, direct in film, had their own TV shows, did Broadway successfully in acting and have a 60-year successful career. At 77, Cher's career is still as strong as SHE wants it to be.

Women in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: An Update
April 02, 2023 02:52 PM Filed in: Controversy | Rock Hall Politics | Women in the Rock Hall
In recent weeks there has been renewed public interest in the amount of women in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame after influential writer Jessica Hopper, annoyed about the Hall's posts celebrating Women's History Month, tweeted the sobering statistics.


Hole frontwoman Courtney Love noticed the tweets and wrote a scathing indictment of the institution in an op-ed in The Guardian.

If so few women are being inducted into the Rock Hall, then the nominating committee is broken. If so few Black artists, so few women of colour, are being inducted, then the voting process needs to be overhauled. Music is a lifeforce that is constantly evolving – and they can't keep up. Shame on HBO for propping up this farce.

If the Rock Hall is not willing to look at the ways it is replicating the violence of structural racism and sexism that artists face in the music industry, if it cannot properly honour what visionary women artists have created, innovated, revolutionised and contributed to popular music – well, then let it go to hell in a handbag.

The Pretenders' Chrissie Hynde followed with a public post on Facebook dismissing the institution as "establishment backslapping" and saying she didn't want to be associated with it.

With all of that as context, here are updated graphs showing the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's record of inducting women.

First, showing the split among all individuals who have been inducted (all categories):

Inductees-m-w2

Next, showing the split between all-male acts versus artists with at least one woman (Performer category only):

At age 77, CHER is the oldest woman at CHR Radio with a NEW song: DJ Play a Christmas Song. Radio in the USA is ageist and sexist. Female artists meet radio resistance earlier than male artists. By the time female artists are 40 they struggle for mainstream airplay. Older artists like Elton Johan and Paul McCartney and others usually team up with younger hot artists to get airplay. Cher is doing this alone and at age 77 is charting on AC Radio and Mainstream CHR Radio in the USA, so a very big deal. In the music biz, this is historic. You go Girl!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Janna wade on Friday, 12/1/2023 @ 02:46am

Cher's DJ Play a Christmas Song has been #1 on the Billboard AC Chart for 3 weeks now. Not only is she #1 at AC Radio, at 77 is getting HAC Radio play and also POP Radio airplay, which is unheard of for age 77, Solo and NEW material. Now she enters the Billboard Bubbling Under Chart at #115.

Cher first entered the Billboard Bubbling Under Chart in DEC 1964 with Sonny for Baby Don't Go. That means 59 years of Billboard Charts for new material. From age 17 to age 77. No other artist has THAT distinction and with a new SOLO song.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame should be ashamed to not have inducted Cher and Sonny &Cher many years ago.

Hey, who in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has a video game made after them? CHER!
Cher Is Heading to the Metaverse With 'Christmas' Roblox Event: Exclusive
In partnership with WMG and Gamefam, players can meet a virtual version of the legend, play games and score merch inspired by Cher's iconic looks.
Cher's chart-topping Christmas album marked her first-ever holiday record — and now, the legendary singer will embark on another first: a trip to the metaverse.

Billboard can share exclusive first details about Cher's four-week event on Roblox that launches today (Dec. 8) in the latest collaboration between Warner Music Group and leading metaverse game developer Gamefam. Cher will head to WMG's music-themed Roblox world Harmony Hills, which will have its halls decked in festive decor, add new holiday-themed locations, and launch limited-time virtual merchandise inspired by some of the superstar's most iconic looks with tinsel hair, winter fairy wings, diamond antlers and a winter crown. The activation will spotlight three of Cher's new Christmas tracks: "Drop Top Sleigh Ride" with Tyga, "Angels in the Snow," and her historic new No. 1 single, "DJ Play a Christmas Song."

Alongside a virtual Cher NPC (non-playable character) designed to match her new album cover, players can earn the wearable avatar merch by successfully completing tasks like delivering presents, climbing up Christmas trees and participating in snowball fights.

The Cher space in Harmony Hills is the latest launch in WMG and Gamefam's partnership that kicked off in February 2023 ahead of a Super Bowl concert with Warner Records rapper Saweetie. Gamefam reports the concert holds the highest rating among any concert on Roblox with a 96 percent player rating, with the Super Bowl campaign earning over 7.5 million visits in one week. A Bebe Rexha concert in July in support of her Bebe album averaged 8,300 concurrent users amid its 4.3 million unique visits.

Leaning into the 70 million daily active users on Roblox marks a unique opportunity for a legend like Cher to reach across generations, including an entirely new audience and demographic, via festive and familiar holiday music.

"Christmas songs have this magic that always brings families together and we feel Cher's Christmas album really captures that spirit," explains Jacqui Bransky, vp of Web3 and Innovation at Warner Records. "We thought taking her music to Roblox would help expose her to a new generation of fans while simultaneously spreading joy. We wanted to make the whole experience feel like a story, something that really draws the audience in while still feeling authentic to who Cher is as an artist."

Adds Alli Guglielmino, svp of Growth at Gamefam, "Cher is an everlasting, multi-generational superstar and, after seven decades, Cher continues to find innovative ways to connect with a new wave of fans…as Gen Z and Alpha turn away from traditional music consumption methods, there's no better place to reach them than the metaverse gaming platform where they're actively playing for 2.5 hours every day."

Cher's Christmas event on Roblox (launching at 7 p.m. ET on Dec. 8) joins her heavy promo run for the holiday LP that's included performances at the iHeartRadio Z100 Jingle Ball, the Rockefeller Center Tree-Lighting Special and Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Cher breaks all-time UK chart record with DJ Play a Christmas Song

Pop icon Cher breaks UK Official Chart records today with DJ Play a Christmas Song.

Cher becomes the first female artist to achieve a Top 40 hit with new material on the Official Singles Chart across seven consecutive decades. While Cher's UK chart debut originally came in the form of Sonny & Cher's chart-topping duet I Got You Babe in 1965, her debut solo single All I Really Want To Do broke the UK Top 40 the same month, and Cher has gone on to chart a solo single of new material in the Top 40 in every decade since.

MORE: See where every Cher song and album has charted in the UK
At 77 years, 7 months old, Cher also becomes the oldest solo female performer to secure a Top 40 on the Official Singles Chart with the lead single from her 27th studio album Christmas. DJ Play a Christmas Song breaks all the way in to the Top 20 at Number 20 this week.




This means Cher surpasses previous record-holder Shirley Bassey, the Welsh singer-songwriter being 70 years, 4 months old when The Living Tree peaked at Number 37 in 2007.

Captain Sir Tom Moore holds the record for the oldest artist to score a UK Number 1 single, being 99 years, 11 months old when Michael Ball collaboration You'll Never Walk Alone reached Number 1 in 2020.

DJ Play a Christmas Song also becomes Cher's highest-charting single in the UK in over two decades, to boot. Her last to achieve Top 20 success was The Music's No Good Without You, which peaked at Number 8 in 2001.

Cher also becomes the first-ever female artist to secure UK Top 40 singles spanning seven decades with original material.

Since the release of Sonny & Cher's chart-topping I Got You Babe in 1965, Cher's scored at least one Top 40 hit in each decade since.

Speaking on Cher's success, Martin Talbot, Chief Executive Officer, Official Charts, says:

"Cher cements her position as a living legend this week, notching up two incredible landmarks - becoming the oldest living female to secure a Top 40 single and the only female solo artist to claim an Official Top 40 single in seven consecutive decades.

"It is incredible to consider that WHAM!'s Andrew Ridgeley and George Michael were barely taking their first steps when Cher was enjoying her first UK Number 1; almost 20 years before Last Christmas was released. Cher, we salute you!"

A strange chart fact, that Sam Fox once had more hits than Cher. Although it was only for a matter of weeks and Cher started to really overtake again. I think it was Walking In Memphis that saw Cher stay ahead after 8 hits each.

I'd have to look it up again to confirm but remember comparing once before when I was looking it up!

Gosh, you are not smart at all, Cher placed a new song, new material in the top 40, "at 77 years, 7 months old, Cher becomes the oldest solo female performer to secure a Top 40 on the Official Singles Chart"



Brenda Lee "Rocking around..." is a song from December 1962, she placed that song on the charts when she was 17, she haven't rerecord it or make a new version, it's the same song from 1962



So please learn to read and then comment

Er, to be fair, you're both right.

The sentence in the article about charting in seven consecutive decades refers to new material.

The sentence about being oldest female to chart merely says "At 77 years, 7 months old, Cher also becomes the oldest solo female performer to secure a Top 40 on the Official Singles Chart" – which doesn't mention new material. So technically it's wrong, as she's not even the oldest solo female to secure a Top 40 place this week.

And actually, Brenda Lee isn't either – Darlene Love is 82!

Obviously your general point is absolutely correct JK, since Brenda Lee's appearance is with a 61-year-old recording and Darlene Love's is with a 60-year-old one, while Cher's is brand new.

Cher's DJ Play a Christmas Song has entered the Billboard Hot 100!

Cher's first appearance on the Billboard Charts was in Dec 1964, so 59 Years ago. Cher charted Baby Don't Go with Sonny in Dec 1964 on the Billboard Bubbling Under chart. That song went top 10 in 1965. As far as the Billboard Hot 100, Cher charted her solo song All I Really Want to Do in July 1965, as well as I Got You Babe in July 1965 which ended up at #1.

Cher has charted now for 59 years on the Billboard Charts, or 58 years and 5 months on the Billboard Hot 100.

For Cher to Chart on the Billboard Hot 100 at age 77 with a SOLO song is unbelievable! Other older artists like Elton John or Paul McCartney chart on the Billboard Hot 100 by teaming up with a younger hot artist.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame treats Cher like CRAPOLA but guess what, Cher has the last laugh! What other 1960's Female artist can chart on the Billboard Hot 100 with a NEW SOLO song??

Posted by Greta Enlist on Thursday, 12/28/2023 @ 09:22am

Cher's achievement of charting on the Billboard Hot 100 at age 77 with a NEW song is amazing and her song was not even treated as a Christmas song. It got POP play, so she made the CHR Charts. Unreal! As it has been said, older artists like Elton Jonh and Paul McCartney team up with younger artists and chart that way or remake old songs. Cher did not do it that way, so she did it the hard way of doing a new song all alone and she did it! Maybe at 78 or older she will take the route of older artists and team up with a younger artist or two. Hope so but for now this is a very big achievement.

Odd how the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame treats Cher like garbage but Cher just goes on her merry ole Cher way and her career is endless.

12 Reasons Cher Belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Just thought of a 13th reason: Who's more fun than Cher?


By Paul Grein


Cher
Cher at Balmain Ready To Wear Spring 2024 held at Palais de Chaillot on September 27, 2023 in Paris, France.
Swan Gallet for WWD
Under the stellar leadership of John Sykes, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame has broadened its definition of what constitutes rock and roll to include, well, pretty much anything that has a young, contemporary, rule-breaking attitude and spirit.

Which makes us wonder why Cher has never even nominated for the Rock Hall. She has always had a young attitude, even today, at age 77. Telling the Rock Hall to "you-know-what themselves" as she did last week on national TV, is a pretty rock and roll thing to do.

Appearing on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Friday Dec. 15, Cher said "And I'm not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!." After the studio audience let out a collective groan, Cher told them it was okay with her. "You know what, I wouldn't be in it now if they gave me a million dollars. I'm not kidding you. I'm never going to change my mind. They can just you-know-what themselves," Cher said to applause.

Who can really blame her for feeling that way after so many years of being bypassed? Sonny and Cher, as a duo, and Cher solo, have been eligible for the Rock Hall since 1990 – which was 25 years after their breakthrough hits, "I Got You Babe" and "All I Really Want to Do," respectively.



Some of the female artists who Cher paved the way for, with her irreverence and artistic boldness, are already in the Hall – most notably Madonna. When Madonna was still in grade school, Cher became adept at turning controversy to her advantage. As Sonny Bono once said "She liked to do things for the shock they created. She still does. She'll create some controversy and then tell her critics to stick it." Sound familiar?

It's a safe bet that the Rock Hall will embrace Miley Cyrus soon after she becomes eligible in 2031. Like Cher, Cyrus has had an unorthodox career, with some missteps and head-scratching moves, but also flashes of brilliance.

Beyoncé's Renaissance Tour and accompanying film, with its focus on fashion and style, shows Cher's influence. Lady Gaga's entire career owes a debt to Cher.

The Rock Hall's expansion of its definition of rock and roll was essential if the Hall was to avoid becoming a museum recognizing a niche genre; the sound of a previous generation. But it has made it far harder to get a sense of who qualifies as rock and roll and who doesn't. If ABBA, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston and Dolly Parton are in, what's the rationale for leaving Cher out?

Cher is still active. She released her first Christmas album on Oct. 20. It features duets with Cyndi Lauper, Michael Bublé, Tyga and Rock Hall members Stevie Wonder and Darlene Love. And as her blast at the Rock Hall shows, Cher still knows how to speak her mind and attract attention.

Here are 12 reasons Cher belongs in the Rock Hall.

Sonny & Cher were part of the mod pop/rock scene of the mid-1960s.

Their early hits "I Got You Babe," "Baby Don't Go" and "The Beat Goes On" brought the spirit of contemporary pop/rock to the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. (Sonny Bono wrote all three of these fine songs.) Sonny & Cher may have been on the pop side of pop/rock (compared to such contemporaries as The Byrds), but with both their sound and their look, they were definitely on the pop/rock spectrum.



Cher was one of the first artists to have a big hit with a Bob Dylan song.

Cher's version of Dylan's "All I Really Want to Do" peaked at No. 15 on the Hot 100 in August 1965 (while "I Got You Babe" was No. 1). The Byrds' version peaked at No. 40 that same week. Cher had a top 15 hit with a Dylan song before Dylan did (!) – though he made the top 15 the following week with "Like a Rolling Stone."

For the record, Peter, Paul & Mary were the first artists to have a big hit with a Dylan song ("Blowin' in the Wind" and "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright"). Then came The Byrds with "Mr. Tambourine Man." And then Cher.



Cher brought a rock sensibility to prime-time TV.

The biggest hurdle to Cher being taken seriously for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is probably the smash success of The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, an instant hit when it premiered in 1971. As a high-schooler at the time, I enjoyed the "Vamp" song she sang every week, but some of the sketches were not exactly comedy gold.

But the show (and solo spinoffs for both Sonny and Cher and an inevitable reunion series) gave airtime to a lot of rock artists. Elton John, Bette Midler and Flip Wilson were the guests on the pilot of Cher, which aired in February 1975. That's a pretty hot lineup for a variety show of that era. Of this foursome, only Wilson, whose variety show was a smash hit in the early 1970s, did not have a decades-long career. Linda Ronstadt, Ike & Tina Turner, David Bowie (in his U.S. television debut), The Jackson 5 and Patti LaBelle were also guests on the Cher show.



Cher's unorthodox career moves have always shown a rebellious, restless spirit.

Cher was making big money playing Las Vegas in 1981, but gave it up to go to Broadway and appear in the ensemble of Come Back to the 5 and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean, which played for six weeks in early 1982. Her decision to bet on herself paid off right away: Director Mike Nichols caught the show and cast her in Silkwood, which opened the following year.

Cher won an Oscar for Moonstruck in April 1988, but she was equally focused at the time on her recording career, and specifically on recording pop/rock material rather than the pop story-song novelties ("Half-Breed," "Dark Lady") that had given her her biggest solo hits. One month before she won the Oscar, she had a top 10 hit with the rock ballad "I Found Someone." The very week she won the Oscar, she entered the Hot 100 with the follow-up hit, "We All Sleep Alone," co-written by Rock Hall members Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.

Her other rock-edged hits of this period were "If I Could Turn Back Time" (the quintessential Cher hit, and one of Diane Warren's best songs, too), "Just Like Jesse James," "Heart of Stone" and a cover of Betty Everett's 1964 smash "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's in His Kiss)" which Cher recorded for her Mermaids, her first film after Moonstruck.

Cher once said that her hit years on Geffen Records (1987-91) had been especially meaningful to her, "because I was getting to do songs that I really loved … songs that really represented me, and they were popular!"


Cher has been a role model for a generation of younger female stars.

In 2018, Dazed's Shon Faye put it this way: "If Madonna and Lady Gaga and Kylie [Minogue] and Cyndi Lauper were playing football, Cher would be the stadium they played on, and the sun that shone down on them."

At the 2017 Billboard Music Awards, Gwen Stefani presented Cher with the Billboard Icon Award, calling Cher "a role model for showing us how to be strong and true to ourselves [and] the definition of the word Icon."

In her 2019 music video for "You Need to Calm Down," Taylor Swift has a framed copy of a Cher quote, "Mom, I am a rich man," on the wall. The quote comes from Cher's 1996 interview with Jane Pauley on Dateline NBC in which Cher related the story of her mother urging her to "settle down and marry a rich man," to which Cher replied, "Mom, I am a rich man."

In 2018, Cyndi Lauper, Little Big Town and Adam Lambert performed when Cher received the Kennedy Center Honors. It's very easy to see Cher's imprint on the versatile Lauper and the flamboyant Lambert.

In 2021, Cher guest-starred as God in P!nk's music video for "All I Know So Far." The two stars have some history. P!nk told Billboard in 2019 that she started studying aerial silks after watching Cher's dancers perform on them in Living Proof: The Farewell Tour in 2004.


Cher was among the first female artists to undertake a massively successful solo tour.

Cher has headlined seven major concert tours, including Living Proof: The Farewell Tour (2002-05), which was one of the top 10 highest-grossing tours of that decade, according to Billboard Boxscore. For the first half of the decade, it was second only to The Rolling Stones' Licks Tour in total grosses.

Initially scheduled for 49 shows, the worldwide tour was extended several times. By October 2003, it had become the most successful tour ever undertaken by a female headliner. The 236-date tour finally ended in 2005 after having played to more than 3.5 million fans and earning more than $250 million.



A tour stop at American Airlines Arena in Miami on Nov. 8, 2002 formed the basis of a TV special which aired on NBC five months later. The special attracted nearly 17 million viewers and brought Cher a Primetime Emmy for outstanding variety, music or comedy special. She joined an impressive array of women who have won in that category for one-woman concert specials, including Liza Minnelli (Liza With a Z), Barbra Streisand (Barbra: The Concert) and, later, Adele (Adele: One Night Only).

Despite the claim implicit in the tour's title (The Farewell Tour), Cher has since headlined two more tours – Dressed to Kill Tour (2014) and Here We Go Again Tour (2018-20).


Many music critics (OK, not the grumpy ones) are Cher fans who might just cheer her selection.

In 2019, Rolling Stone's Rob Sheffield stated that "there are no other careers remotely like hers, [particularly] in the history of pop music" and referred to Cher as "the one-woman embodiment of the whole gaudy story of pop music."

In 2014, James Reed from The Boston Globe noted "Along with David Bowie, she is one of the original chameleons in pop music, constantly in flux and challenging our perceptions of her."

Billboard's Joe Lynch wrote in 2017 "…It seems odd to say anyone as famous as Cher is under-appreciated: the woman has five No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100, an Oscar for best actress and has remained a household name for half a century. Even so, Cher's impact as a musical force is unfairly disregarded or minimized. … Years before David Bowie toyed with gender-bending, Cher brought her deep contralto voice to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with Sonny Bono on 'I Got You Babe' in 1965, and in the ensuing slew of TV appearances, she brought her defiantly androgynous looks into households across America."

In 1996, Jancee Dunn wrote in Rolling Stone, "Cher is the coolest woman who ever stood in shoes. Why? Because her motto is, 'I don't give a shit what you think, I'm going to wear this multicolored wig.' There are folks all over America who would, in their heart of hearts, love to date people half their age, get multiple tattoos and wear feathered headdresses. Cher does it for us."

Writing in The Advocate in 2003, Alec Mapa noted: "While the rest of us were sleeping, Cher's been out there for the last four decades living out every single one of our childhood fantasies … Cher embodies an unapologetic freedom and fearlessness that some of us can only aspire to."


Cher's selection would boost the number of women in the Hall.

When we spoke to John Sykes, chairman of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, in May, he said "Prior to 2019, about 14%-15% of the inductees were women. In the last five years, it has been almost 25%. We're not there yet, but we're seeing the inductees class evolve not only in sound but gender."


You want "attitude"? Hello!

When we spoke to Sykes, we also discussed Willie Nelson, who had been eligible since at least 1987. This was the first time the country legend had appeared on the ballot and he got in. "He had one of the highest vote totals in the history of the Hall of Fame," Sykes revealed. "He scored a huge number. It reflects too how the voting [body] understands that rock and roll is not a single sound. It's an attitude and if anyone has attitude, it's Willie Nelson."

If it's attitude they want, Cher invented attitude. She exhibited an IDGAF attitude long before anyone had coined that acronym.


Longevity? Check.

The Rock Hall doesn't want to let in people who haven't stood the test of time. I think they're OK with Cher on that score.

Her high-charting albums on the Billboard 200 span more than 53 years, from Sonny & Cher's Look at Us, which began an eight-week run at No. 2 on Sept. 11, 1965, to her own Dancing Queen (a collection of songs by Rock Hall members ABBA), which debuted and peaked at No. 3 on Oct. 13, 2018.

Her No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 span nearly 34 years, from Sonny & Cher's "I Got You Babe," which reached No. 1 on Aug. 14, 1965, to her solo smash "Believe," which ended a four-week reign on April 3, 1999.

Both "I Got You Babe" and "Believe" are notable No. 1 hits. "I Got You Babe" is a reminder that a song can be simple and still convey profound truths. Rock Hall member Chrissie Hynde was featured on UB40's 1985 cover version of the timeless smash. "Believe," of course, was highly influential in its use of Auto-Tune. It brought Cher her first (and only) Grammy for best dance recording. The smash was also Grammy-nominated for record of the year, 34 years after Sonny & Cher were nominated for best new artist.


Cher helped put The Met Gala on the map.

Even those of us who don't know the first thing about fashion can recognize that The Met Gala has become the place to see and be seen for many A-list pop stars. Cher wore a feather-and-crystal-encrusted gown, designed by Bob Mackie, to the 1974 Met Gala. (You know the dress, which gave the illusion, at least, of nudity – she wore it again when she made the cover of TIME in March 1975 under the cover line Gladrags to Riches).

"The dress" paved the way for other scene-stealing outfits, such as Jennifer Lopez's cut-down-to-there dress on the Grammys in 2000.

Vogue's André Leon Talley told Billboard in 2017: "It was really the first time a Hollywood celebrity attended [The Met Gala], and it changed everything. We are still seeing versions of that look on The Met red carpet 40 years later."


Wearing this outrageous outfit at the 1986 Oscars was a pretty rock and roll thing to do.

In early 1986, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences requested that all nominees and presenters dress in a way that would maintain the decorum of the evening. When Cher wasn't even nominated for her acclaimed performance in Mask, she asked her pal Bob Mackie to design the most outlandish outfit ever worn on an awards show. He rose to the challenge and she wore the gaudy and garish outfit to the Oscars on March 24, 1986, where she was a presenter.

After letting the audience take in the one of the greatest sight gags in Oscar history, Cher said "As you can see, I did receive my Academy booklet on how to dress like a serious actress."

Great seeing Cher happy! Her 40-year age difference is only a number!
Go CHER!

Guess Cher is supposed to begin her new album with Alexander AE Edwards in February. Hope so. Bet she does fun stuff on it too.

Posted by Michelle Taber on Monday, 01/29/2024 @ 05:42am

Fell in love with Cher from her Geffen era stuff. It was sort of a Bon Jovi sound. I then discovered her earlier stuff. Wow. So many eras and then her stuff with Sonny and now I am seeing all her stuff with Sonny on You Tube. Amazing! Their show had all the Rock and Roll legends of the 1950's and 1960's on.

Congratulations to all the nominated artists, including Cher, who recently said, "I wouldn't be in it now if they gave me a million dollars… They can you-know-what themselves." Happy Valentine's Day to you, too.

Rumors that Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation Chairman John Sykes will perform a rare acoustic set have yet to be confirmed.

I thought Cher was inducted to the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame long ago. If she wasn't inducted, she should soon be. She had a long career.

Very sad about Jann Wenner and his sexism and bad behavior. Glad mistreatment and belittling of women is not as much a factor now. So many women in music should be in that Hall. Cher is a great place to start since she has been eligible for so long it is almost comical. Sonny & Cher should be in there as well. I bet if it had been Sonny & Sam, they would have been inducted eons ago. The fact that Jann Wenner did not like Cher personally should not have even been a factor. It is about her music and influence in the music biz. Unlike so many artists already IN the Hall, Cher continues to do new projects and is still on contract with a major label, Warner Brothers Records.

Well finally she is nominated. Finallllllllllllly she will get in as a solo and then with Sonny!

Posted by Stonewall69 on Thursday, 02/29/2024 @ 23:49pm

How could Cher or Sonny & Cher not be part of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by now? Careers going back to 1963 too.
The sexism in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is so rampant but hopefully now, things will be better. Cher and then sonny & Cher need to get into the hall ASAP.

Posted by Kristine Spencer on Saturday, 03/2/2024 @ 06:29am

Did not know any of this and am in awe no Cher in that hall of shame.

Posted by Haverhill88 on Tuesday, 03/12/2024 @ 00:07am

Cher was like the high Priestess of the iHeart Music Awards. Meryl Streep did a wonderful presentation for her, and Jennifer Hudson did Believe and then Cher came out and joined her. Cher and Jennifer Hudson belted it and had a blast together. Cher is an icon and iHeart gets it, The R&RHOF never got the memo.

Posted by Larry Welch on Thursday, 04/4/2024 @ 10:20am

Yup, saw Chergirl on that iHeart show and adored her. Great performance and she must get her induction.

Cher and of course Sonny and Cher were icons of the 1960's and 1970's. 4 it 2 takes DECADES to get Cher in is just plain dumb. Now on the getting Sonny & Cher in.

Posted by Bree Sommers on Friday, 07/12/2024 @ 09:33am

Is Cher going to accept the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
"I'm going to have some words to say," she said. "I'm going to accept it as me." Last month, it was announced that Cher would be among this year's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees.

Posted by Jason S on Thursday, 08/1/2024 @ 08:22am

Finally, 60 YEARS into her still viable career. OK, we got CHER in and now on to Sonny & Cher!
