Cher is an American singer, actress, and television personality. She began her career as part of the duo Sonny & Cher with Sonny Bono, releasing hit singles such as the 1965 No. 1 I Got You Babe and becoming TV hosts in the early ’70s. She found further success as a solo artist throughout the subsequent decades, with hits including Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves, Half-Breed, If I Could Turn Back Time, the Academy Award-nominated After All (Love Theme from Chances Are) with Peter Cetera, and Believe (a chart-topper in 23 countries). Alongside those songs, albums such as Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves, Cher, Heart of Stone, and Believe — and an early ’80s stint in rock band Black Rose — contributed to her being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2024.
