Cher Is My Favorite Artist

Cher, why do I love you? Is it your dancing? Your acting? Is it your singing? The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour? Thirty million viewers a week cannot be wrong. Gypsy, Tramps and Thieves is one of my all-time favorite songs But she has to be sung by you to elicit full power. Cher, you are so beautiful in Bob Mackie’s costumes. I can close my eyes and see the Indian headdress on you With your sweet flat belly button showing. And your all powerful dancing eyes as you made fun of Sonny. Mask, The Witches of Eastwick and Silkwood are favorites with me Because you were in there, showing your vulnerabilities, being yourself. You have won a Grammy, an Emmy and an academy award. The people love you, and I am one of them. You showed us what a woman can do. Cher, you are the only artist to have a number one single On the Billboard charts in six consecutive decades. Your philanthropic efforts and social activism Are icing on the cake that is you, Cher. Written 11-4-2019 Contest: Your Favorite Artist Sponsor: Chantelle Anne Cooke

I love everything about her. She entertained me so much when we lived in Michigan - 14 hours away from our families, and I was only 19.

I adore Cher, too. Our radio station plays 'Dark Lady' and 'Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves' a lot and I love it! Did you ever see Mermaids? It cracked me up how her character was an utterly glamorous badass who only knew how to make kooky cocktail-party appetizers, so that's all she fed her kids! ;D
