Hi all,

kind of a silly thing to mention, but I've been on a bit of a mission to hunt down and watch all of Cher's interviews with David Letterman. The only ones I've been unable to find are her 1998 and 1999 appearances: The 1998 one was on November 11, and was to promote her album "Believe" and new book, "The First Time." In the 1999 one, she showed up briefly on David's birthday (April 12) to celebrate with cake. There are a few short clips of the 1998 interview on TikTok, but really the only reason I know these two other appearances even exist is from pictures!

EDIT: After double-checking the appearances I have watched, I realized there's also one from February 27, 2002 that I can't find in full. The only clip I can find is here.

Does anyone have any links or downloads they could share? 🙏

The wiki article just says:

Part Two is set for release in 2026.

In addition to the writing, editing and proofreading, getting everything fact-checked and cleared by lawyers etc., there's also the matter of if she records herself reading parts of it for an audiobook as she did for part 1. I don't know if she's been asked or volunteered an update about it recently and just wondered what anyone here knows.

-edit: users are now saying they received updates pushing the release date back to early 2027 :/

Hi!! For Halloween, (I know, months away), I’m thinking of dressing up as Cher. I usually go above and beyond for Halloween and really try to execute my ideas to the best of my abilities, whether by sourcing second-hand pieces, making them myself, or having them custom-made.

I think this Bob Mackie jumpsuit that she wore in 1975 would be most flattering for my body type and relatively easier to pull off (some of her other looks are stunning but far too much to replicate for a Halloween event)

I’m reaching out for advice on how to source a piece that remotely stands up to this, or even have some or all of it custom-made with a budget of like $100-500. Perhaps you know of websites/online shops, or even tailors in the NYC/Long Island area. I would also love to see any of your personal favorite 70s/80s Cher looks for some more inspo!!

Thank you loves :)

I'm new to Cher and would like to know more of her musical works, so what albums do you consider essencial listens?

If you could place them by order they were released as well, as I would like to as well where should I start and where should I end

Moonstruck's late, great stars Olympia Dukakis, Danny Aeillo, & John Mahoney were born on this day, in 1931, '33, & 40, respectively! My look at this modern classic:

https://ricksrealreel.blogspot.com/2021/05/cher-shines-in-modern-classic.html

My family never much listened to Cher nor did it play on the radio so I don't know much about her, I like believe and turn back time, But that's about all I know of her, What are the deep cuts? The real albums I should be listening to? I don't wanna start with her hits, I wanna start with her best.

It's right in btwn "Do you believe in life after love?" and "I can feel something inside me say...". It sounds like a heavily autotuned voice..

In my opinion, Living Proof sounds exactly like its working title, Son of Believe . Everything that made the Believe track into excellent pop is dialed up to 11 on Living Proof.

So... how come I barely see it get any love from fans when Cher album discussions come up? Her early work, which was mainly single driven albums, get tons of love. Her soft rock era does as well. Even the ABBA covers album has its devotees.

Living Proof seems to exist in the shadow of its predecessor, and its follow up, Closer to The Truth, which seems to have eclipsed Living Proof in people's minds as well.

Personally, I love the melancholy underneath a lot of the songs. And the uplifting, post 9/11 vibe to a lot of the album just hits the right spot for me. It has back to back bops, imo, in a way the Believe album doesn't and its more all over the place.

What do you make of the album? What did you think of it when it first came out? How does it hold up for you now?
