2. Cher was born Cherilyn Sarkisian LaPiere on May 20, 1946 in El Centro California 3. Younger sister, GeorganneMomLaPiere 4. Chaz Bono Born Chastity Sun BonoElijah Blue Allman 5. Chers daughter Chastity underwent female-to-male gender transition. Chastity is now Chaz. Chastity always realized that she was different and when she was 13 she discovered that name was Gay. She came out and told her family when she was 18. In 2010 he finished transitioning and had his name legally changed to Chaz Salvatore Bono.It was hard for Cher, but she realized that she had always known. 6. Chastity before transitionChaz after transition 7. Cher has sang songs from all different categories: Pop Rock Folk Disco Dance 8. Cher started her career out singing with Sonny Bono singing background vocals and playing gigs. In 1964 they released the single The Letter. Cher released a single 'Ringo, I Love You under the name Bonnie Jo mason. While in England Sonny and Cher were told they were not welcome at the London Hilton Hotel, because of their hippie image, they became News. The London Radio stations played I Got You Babe and it reached #1 for two weeks. After that it was played in the US and reached #29. Over 2 million copies have now been sold worldwide. This launched their career. 9. I Got You Babe They say we're young and we don't know We won't find out until we grow Well I don't know if all that's true 'Cause you got me, and baby I got you Babe, I got you babe I got you babe They say our love won't pay the rent Before it's earned, our money's all been spent I guess that's so, we don't have a pot But at least I'm sure of all the things we got Babe, I got you babe I got you babe I got flowers in the spring I got you to wear my ring And when I'm sad, you're a clown And if I get scared, you're always around Don't let them say your hair's too long 'Cause I don't care, with you I can't go wrong Then put your little hand in mine There ain't no hill or mountain we can't climbBabe, I got you babe I got you babe I got you to hold my hand I got you to understand I got you to walk with me I got you to talk with me I got you to kiss goodnight I got you to hold me tight I got you, I won't let go I got you to love me so I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe I got you babe 10. "I got my first look at Salvatore Phillip Bono. I will never forget it, because everyone else in the room disappeared, just washed away into some fuzzy soft focus. Cher fell instantly in love with Sonny. She was 17 and he was 27. She moved in with him and off they went. They were married in 1964, but Sonnys autobiography says they werent married until after she had Chastity in 1969. The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour ran from 1971 1974. It dropped because Cher divorced Sonny. She was very unhappy and he was constantly cheating on her. Cher married Gregg Allman and had son Elijah Blue Allman. She divorced him and at 33 was a single mother. 11. This was not the end of Cher. This was a new beginning. In 1983 Cher stared in the movie Silkwood opposite Meryl Streep. Silkwood premiered in New York and when the audience heard that Cher was staring in it they laughed. It came as a shock that after all the negative reactions from people that Cher was nominated for an Oscar for her roll in Silkwood. Within hour years Cher was in demand. She was even in three films at the same time. Moonstruck Suspect The Witches of Eastwick Cher has been in more than 16 movies. 12. Cher has starred in movies that have made a real impact on viewers. In 1987 she stared in the movie Mask Cher played Florence "Rusty" Dennis, biker mom to son Roy L. "Rocky" Dennis who had crandiodiaphyseal dysplasia. This is an extremely rare disorder known commonly as lionitis because it disfigures the head. She is a no nonsense mom who doesnt care how her son looks and wont let other people treat him any different. Rocky ends up dying in the end of the movie, but this movie showed the world that disfigured people are the same as everyone else and how it hurts when they are treated like second class citizens. 13. In 1991 she stared in the movie Mermaids Cher played glamorous but eccentric mother, Rachel. Rachel has two children 15 year old Charlotte, who narrates the movie, and a younger child Kate. Rachel is always having flings with her boss and when they end, badly, she up and movies them. She drives until a place looks good to her. They set up house again and Rachel gets a new job. This time she meets Lou. He owns the local shoe store. They become an item and soon become a family.In the meantime Charlotte has fantasies of another life that is pure and good. She is fascinated with Catholicism. After kissing an older boy she thinks god is punishing her by making her pregnant. Charlotte is really messed up by all the moves and her mother, Rachel, just telling her to relax and not worry so much about anything. Meanwhile Rachel is getting antsy again. She doesnt want to get permanent with Lou and he thinks things are going great. In the end there is an accident with Kate, who turns out fine, just a little deaf in one ear, and Charlotte convinces Rachel to stay for one year. 14.

The song Bang Bang really showed how treating women could come back to bite the man in the rear endIf the embedded song doesnt work, please go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajA0sNkQJ_0 19. The song Gypsys Tramps & Thieves shows how two faced people can be. I believe in showing the same face to everyone I have contact with. In this song the women look down on Gypsys so the men go along, but at night, when the women are not around, they are very willing to act like base humans.If the embedded song doesnt work, please go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLTETaWswCY 20.
