Cherilyn Sarkisian aka Cher, is a multi talented sensation who has been an integral part of the entertainment industry for nearly four long decades. All this time, this lady has proved herself in a number of fields. She has been a successful actress, an even successful singer and a director as well. Cher has a persona that is truly symbolic of every thing that is hot and with-the-times. At the same time she is also a personification of every thing that is eternal and timeless.
As far as Cher's music profile is concerned, this singing sensation has come out with some of the best albums in the industry. Some of them include 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection: The Best of Cher, Live: The Farewell Tour, Blue Long Songs, Living Proof [Japan Bonus Track, Believe and a lot more.
Cher left her home at the age of 16 with a view to take acting lessons and establish herself as an actress, she could not continue with her ambition as destiny has something else in store for her. At this juncture of her life she happened to meet Sonny Bono -- a 28 year old producer-songwriter. Two of them became friends and soon their relationship graduated from friendship to love.
This pair did really well on the stage with the release of the major hit of all time "I Got You, Babe". This song became a kind of a trade mark for all the love birds. Sonny-Cher, the real life lovers became an ideal for the lovers. They were major crowd pullers at the shows that the two did under the name Caesar and Cleo. Another hit to the pair's credit was "The Beat Goes On", which was released in 1967.But the success that the two saw was, was the result of an enormous amount of hard work that went into the making of the pair.
Apart from singing, Cher has another passion, and that is acting. For this passion of her's she has something to say…."I don't like my voice that much. I think I'm a much better actress than singer. Singing is like going to a party at someone else's house. Acting is like having the party at your own house…." Reading this it does not come as a surprise that Cher entered into the world of movies as well. But unfortunately she could not taste the same success in movies as it was in the singing arena. The movies where one can catch Cher include Good Times and Chastity. Their daughter born in 1969 was named after the movie Chastity itself. But all these ups and downs in the lives of the two had an adverse effect on their conjugal life and their marriage came to an end.
But once again Cher teemed up with Sonny in The Sonny and Cher Show from 1976-77.Cher married for a second time to rock star Gregg Allman, and has a son, who was born in 1976.
Following this the sensation remained away from the screen for some time, all this time she was focusing mainly on videos and infomercials. Once again in 1996, Cher the Diva once again emerged on the screen, but this time neither as an actor nor as singer, but as a director. She made her directorial debut with "If Walls Could Talk".
After giving forty valuable years of her career to the entertainment industry, Cher has completely proved that she is an artist of many media.
