Long before Cher decides to tell her story bigger than life — sort of — on her own terms, comes a forthcoming two-part memoir. Fans got an intriguing sneak peek at what's in store when the legendary singer shared the cover art from her upcoming book on Instagram recently.
The memoir, simply titled "Cher: The Memoir," hits bookshelves this November, courtesy of Dey Street Books. According to the publisher, the 78-year-old dynamo is finally ready to uncover the truth concerning the dramatic past that has characterized her life throughout the decades. In her signature wit, Cher delves into dark times like her turbulent marriage to ex Sonny Bono.
In this no-holds-barred autobiography, readers are given a very rare look at Cher's rags-to-riches story of rising to greatness with nothing but raw talent and perseverance. A dream by a young drifter evolved into a 70-year struggle of blazing trail in music and film. As the world's most iconic glam goddess, Cher's influence on the globe does not seem to fade away.
She just keeps on breaking record after record as far as timeless popularity is concerned. Only last year, Cher, at 77, had her latest number one hit, which cemented her place as the only artist to have led the charts across seven decades. Now, the fans salivate for the confessional book promised for late 2025.
Cher had initially targeted 2020 for the first volume, but she conceded that some stories were not yet unpacked. In a humor-filled interview with Jimmy Fallon, she said she had to "man up" and include uncomfortable truths her devoted fans deserve to know.
